Modeling the
Enhancement

So far, you have defined a use case requirement for the ClassicsCD.com enhancement.
The test organization has started test planning. In this chapter, you continue to
incorporate designs for the use case requirement into a ClassicsCD.com visual model
using Rational Rose.

Audience

This chapter applies to software designers and developers.

Getting Your Bearings

In this chapter, you use Rational Rose. To determine whether Rose is installed on your
computer, refer to the tool chart you filled out in Table 1, Rational Suite Tools, on page
29.

If Rose is not installed, you can still benefit from reading this chapter, but you will not
be able to perform the exercises.

If Rose is installed, start it now:

Click Start > Programs > <RationalSuiteProductName> > Rational Rose.

If you did not perform the exercises in Creating Requirements on page 63, perform
the steps to start Rose on page 7 0. Then skip to the following steps of this exercise.

In the Create New Model dialog box, click the Recent tab.

Click the

ClassicsCD_WinDNA

Rose model, then click Open. If Rose asks whether to

load subunits, click Yes.

Rose displays a hierarchical tree browser in the upper-left pane (the Rose browser).
In the right pane (the

diagram

window), it displays the logical view of the

architecture showing how the top-level packages in the system interact.
