Do you have a way too many change requests in your software project? Do you face challenges when performing UAT?In this book, you get the answer to the question, "How do I align business analysis ideas to ensure more precise customer requirements?"Whether you are trying to communicate ideas to your stakeholders or defining the details requirements and specifications, this book explains how to develop a value-added software application that meets both requirements and specifications.The author walks through a rich analysis and the design process, explaining the need for prototypes like wireframes, ERD, and UML, and how to use them.This book describes a step-by-step approach for producing several diagrams as prototypes. It will allow you to get the desired feedback quickly and accurately before handing it over to the designers and the developers.The book is for business analysts. It does not require any programming knowledge, nor does it require prior experience in UML, design, or databases. In this book, business analysts expand their toolkit to get more precise and exact requirements by mapping the requirements to design, application models, and databases.In this book, you will:*Get an overview of project management, DevOps, and requirement gathering*Learn how to think about application layers, interface, logic, and data storage*Capture and precisely represent application requirements*Learn how to capture the system's requirements to ensure that your prototypes meet your stakeholders' needs*Learn how to deploy the system to the real world*How to draw models as a requirement gathering tactic*Learn how to agree on the designs and the models before starting the project*Learn how to build wireframes to produce effective user interface design and architecture*Understand what UML models mean and how to use them as a tool for requirement gathering*Represent requirements better with your business customers*Improve your skills in presenting your system in different ways*The ins and outs of application models.
