Documenting a web site
I have been given the assignment of documenting the entire site's navigation.
They also want to see how and for what reason we would go to each page.
I.e.., I need to add an event to an order. So I need to somehow display the interactions of each page to go through a process. This could entail several pages.
So I thought that I could do Use Cases for this. My thinking was with Use Cases and Sequence Diagrams I could show the thought patterns to get from point A to point B.
My boss tells me today they want to the site map(pages) and then something else to dictate different scenarios.
My company is not very good at reading UML. In fact one other person bought UML in 24 hours. I however have read the entire OMG specifications, so I understand it pretty well. Yes that means I have no life.
I don't mind educating them, so I would like to stay in the realm of UML and/or Visio.
I don't need my work done for me, but would appreciate direction. Like I would use these types of diagrams to show this. etc... I come from a family of engineers so I can infer the technical talk.
I would appreciate any architects telling me what they would do.
Thanks,
Nick
