I feel it looks like the uses-case driven and the corresponding tests in UP. According to my experience, I would say it won't be very effective, unless it can integrate with other testing methods. However, if ... integrated with other techniques, Cleanroom provides quite a few benefits. The benefits include significant improvements in correctness, reliability, and understandability of the software product. These benefits usually translate into a reduction in ...
