Class Diagram vs Use Case Diagram

UML Use case diagrams represent the “requirements” of the system. They show how the users (actors) expect to interface with and get a benefit from the system through use cases (think user stories with more details). It can also show external systems (as actors, typically places to the right of the use cases) that are needed to provide the functionality.


Class diagrams show the building blocks (classes) that are needed to build the software/system. They are the software entities that are used to build the system and their relationships.
