Tech/Engineering - IT (Information Technology) / software factories remuneration
Spanish term or phrase: "caso de uso"
Otro punto que diferencia a las fábricas de software de las empresas de desarrollo tradicionales es la forma de remuneración por el trabajo. Generalmente difiere de los pagos fijos por mes de los contratos tradicionales de tercerización. La remuneración de las fábricas de software se calcula por punto de función, **caso de uso** u hora persona y también varía de acuerdo con la plataforma tecnológica o las bibliotecas de código disponibles en la fábrica.

Thanks again!!

Reference: Use case

Reference information:
A use case is a software and system engineering term that describes how a user uses a system to accomplish a particular goal. A use case acts as a software modeling technique that defines the features to be implemented and the resolution of any errors that may be encountered.

https://www.techopedia.com/definition/25813/use-case

A use case is a methodology used in system analysis to identify, clarify, and organize system requirements. The use case is made up of a set of possible sequences of interactions between systems and users in a particular environment and related to a particular goal. It consists of a group of elements (for example, classes and interfaces) that can be used together in a way that will have an effect larger than the sum of the separate elements combined. The use case should contain all system activities that have significance to the users. A use case can be thought of as a collection of possible scenarios related to a particular goal, indeed, the use case and goal are sometimes considered to be synonymous.


A use case (or set of use cases) has these characteristics:

-Organizes functional requirements
-Models the goals of system/actor (user) interactions
-Records paths (called scenarios) from trigger events to goals
-Describes one main flow of events (also called a basic course of action), and possibly other ones, called exceptional flows of events (also called alternate courses of action)
-Is multi-level, so that one use case can use the functionality of another one.
