       A Development Case describes how the process is applied for a specific 
        project or organization. It includes details such as: 
      
        - which optional activities and artifacts will be used, and which will 
          be dropped,
 
        - the relative timing of activities for each phase,
 
        -  which tools will be used, and
 
        -  the level of formality to be applied.

This is an example Development Case geared to projects with the following characteristics: 
  - small project (less than 10 people, less than a year in duration)
 
  - products deployed either at a customer site or deployed via the web (RUP 
    artifacts and activities related to shrink-wrapped packaged products are not 
    included)
 
  - the software development environment (tools, computing infrastructure, test 
    environment, configuration management environment, and so on) is already set 
    up, or described separately
 
  - low management complexity (one development team, one customer, and one product)
 
  - a relatively informal process is acceptable.
 
 
This Development Case is, however, only an example. It can be tailored for 
  use by projects with other characteristics, such as fewer tools, differing levels 
  of formality, and so on. 
Note that it follows a simplified version of the standard Development Case 
  template.
