Business Analyst role in IT projects

Is it the role of the analyst to run test-cases, should the Analyst manage user-expectations or is the role just intended to document business-processes and user-requirements.

In my opinion the Analyst is the cog in t wheel of the IT project he is the star of the team he gets to be the Customer Advocate and also help the Developer better the code..

There is a lot a good analyst can give a project provided his role is defined and is not just restricted to running test cases...........

Manage user requirements

How does one manage user requirements in the UAT phase of a project when the "bugs" that the users "identify" are new feature requests............
