public interface Extend
extends Relationship

An extend relationship defines that instances of a use case may be augmented with some additional behavior defined in an extending use case. In the metamodel, an Extend relationship is a directed relationship implying that a UseCaseInstance of the base UseCase may be augmented with the structure and behavior defined in the extending UseCase. The relationship consists of a condition, which must be fulfilled if the extension is to take place, and a sequence of references to extension points in the base UseCase where the additional behavior fragments are to be inserted.
