Evaluating the intention to use the use case precedence diagram in software development projects

Abstract

The Use Case Precedence Diagram (UCPD) is a technique that addresses the problem of determining a software's scope and construction sequence from the developer's perspective. This paper presents a qualitative evaluation of the UCPD based on the Method Adoption Model (MAM), where the intention to use a method is determined by the users' perceptions. The results show that the intentions to use UCPD exist in undergraduate students and practitioners with at least 2 years of experience in the industry, but the relationships defined by the MAM are only confirmed with the results obtained with practitioners.
