Profile of the Problem

INTRODUCTION

The main aim of the project is to develop a Resource Module for the Intranet
Automation of resource Software. It has an Intranet through which all the
employees in the company will be knit together. It has different modules such as
Resource Management, adding new employee, administrators task, project
managers task etc., connecting the employees in the company.
Resource Module is the Intranet in which all the information regarding the
employees in the company will be present. The module has been developed with
good Interaction / communication facilities between the employees and
Administrator.

NATURE OF PROJECT: WEB BASED APPLICATION

A Web application is an application that is accessed via Web browser over a


network such as the Internet or an intranet. It is also a computer software
application that is coded in a browser-supported language and reliant on a common
web browser to render the application executable.
Web applications are popular due to the ubiquity of a client, ability to update and
maintain Web applications without distributing and installing software on
potentially thousands of client computers is a key reason for their popularity.

Web based applications have evolved significantly over recent years and with
improvements in security and technology there are plenty of scenarios where
traditional software based applications and systems could be improved by
migrating them to a web based application.
Below are some of the core benefits of web-based applications.

Cross platform compatibility.

Most web-based applications are far more compatible across platforms than
traditional installed software. Typically, the minimum requirement would be a web
7
browser like Internet Explorer, Fire fox, Netscape etc. These web browsers are
available for a multitude of operating systems and so whether you use Windows,
Linux, or Mac OS you can still run the web application.

More manageable

Web based systems need only be installed on the server placing minimal
requirements on the end user workstation. This makes maintaining and updating
the system much simpler as usually it can all be done on the server. Any client
updates can be deployed via the web server with relative ease.

Highly deployable

Due to the manageability and cross platform, support deploying web applications
to the end user is far easier. They are also ideal where bandwidth is limited and the
system and data is remote to the user.

Secure live data

Typically, in larger systems those are more complex data is stored and moved
around separate systems and data sources. In web-based systems, these systems
and processes can often be consolidated reducing the need to move data around.
Web based applications also provide an added layer of security by removing the
need for the user to have access to the data and back end servers.

Reduced costs

Web based applications can dramatically lower costs due to reduced support and
maintenance, lower requirements on the end user system and simplified
architecture.
By further streamlining your business operations because of your web, based
application additional savings can often be found.

Existing System

8
Automation of Resource Software has implemented different modules such as

Library

Project Management

Marketing

Connecting the employees in the company.

PROPOSED SYSTEM

Decision in assigning proper skillful hands for the project is an important issue in
Resource Module. The Resource Administrator should report with the personal
holding the necessary skills required for the project assignment. The decision in
making analysis about the employees skills is a prime important before booting in.
The proposed system of Resource Module is the right software to be incorporated
into the Automation of Resource Software for helping the organization needs with
respect to skillful Resource. The Proposed system provides detail general
information about the employee along with Educational, Certification, skill and
project details. It enhances the HR Management in adding, viewing and updating
employees details and generates various reports regarding employees skill and
experience.

9
Software System Attributes
Usability:
The links are provided for each form. The user is facilitated to view and make
entries in the forms. Validations are provided in each field to avoid inconsistent or
invalid entry in the databases. Some forms consists Hyper Links, which provides
further details. Reports screen contains text boxes and drop down lists, so that
reports can be produced.

Security:
Application will allow only valid users to access the system. Access to any
application resource will depend upon users designation. There are four types of
users namely Administrator and employee, HR manager and project manager.
Security is based upon the individual user ID and Password.

Maintainability:
The installation and operation manual of resource management system will be
provided to the user.

Portability:
The application is developed in JAVA. It would be portable to other operating
system provided .NET Framework is available for the OS.

Acceptance Criteria
The software should meet the functional requirement and perform the functionality
effectively and efficiently.

A user-friendly interface with proper menus.

Data transfer should be accurate and within a reasonable amount of time


keeping in mind the network traffic.
The system should not allow entry of duplicate key values.

11
Feasibility Study
Depending on the results of initial investigation the survey is expanded to more
detailed feasibility study. The objective of feasibility study is not to solve the
problem but to acquire a sense of its scope during the study the problem definition
is crystallized and aspects of the problem to be included in the system are
determined. Consequently, costs and benefits are determined with greater accuracy.

Types of Feasibility
There are various measures of feasibility that helps to decide whether a particular
project is feasible or not. These measures include-

Technical Feasibility
Operational Feasibility
Economical and Financial Feasibility

Technical Feasibility Study


The technical issues raised during the technical feasibility analysis are:
Does the necessary technology exist to do what is suggested?
Does the proposal equipment have the technical capacity to hold the data required
to use the new system?
Will the proposed system & components provide adequate responses to inquiries,
regardless of the number or locations of users?
Can the system be expanded?

Operational Feasibility Study


We have designed front end in JAVA by getting the information from the end user,
which help us in designing the GUI according to the end users requirements. The
end users can easily understand and expand it in the future.

Economical Feasibility Study

12
It involve estimating cost and benefits that can be tangible and intangible because
of confusing between the types of costs it is sometimes very difficult to divide the
benefits out weight the cost.

What are the users demonstrable needs?


User needs a web-based system, which will remove all the above-mentioned
Problems that, the user is facing. The user wants a web-based system, which will
reduce the bulk of paperwork, provide ease of work, flexibility, fast record finding,
modifying, adding, removing and generating the reports.

How can the problem be redefined?


We proposed our perception of the system, in accordance with the problems of
existing system by making a full layout of the system on paper. We tallied the
problems and needs by existing system and requirements. We were further
updating in the layout in the basis of redefined the problems. In feasibility study
phase we had undergone through various steps, which are described as under:

How feasible is the system proposed?


This was analyzed by comparing the following factors with both the existing
system and proposed system.

Cost:
The cost required in the proposed system is comparatively less to the existing
system.

Effort:
Compared to the existing system the proposed system will provide a better
working environment in which their will be ease of work and the effort required
will be comparatively less than the existing system.

Time:
Record finding and updating will take less time than the existing system.

Employee:
In the existing system employee has all the required technical skills.

Info- Information.

Database:- Oracle10g (using JDBC type 4): The JDBC type 4 driver, also
known as the Direct to Database Pure Java Driver, is a database driver
implementation that converts JDBC calls directly into a vendor-specific
database protocol. Written completely in Java, type 4 drivers are thus
platform independent. They install inside the Java Virtual Machine of the
client. This provides better performance than the type 1 and type 2 drivers as
it does not have the overhead of conversion of calls into ODBC or database
API calls. Unlike the type 3 drivers, it does not need associated software to
work. As the database protocol is vendor-specific, the JDBC client requires
separate drivers, usually vendor-supplied, to connect to different types of
databases.

15

Design
Software design is actually a multistage process that focuses on four distinct
attributes of a program: data structure, software architecture, interface
representation and procedural detail. The design process translates requirements
into a representation of the software that can be accessed for quality before code
generation begins. It is the most creative and challenging phase of the SDLC. It
refers to the technical specifications that will be applied to the system.

System design involves designing of a new system or computer application that


will meet the requirements identified during system analysis. System designing is
concerned with the computer oriented design of the system, the detail of the input
transaction, the details of the printed reports, screens and other outputs, the file or
the database structure, the contents of the records .The processing required and the
efficiency of the system from a computer processing point of view.
The purpose of the design phase is to plan a solution of the problem specified by
the requirement document. The phase is first stepping in moving from the problem
domain to the solution domain. The design of a system is perhaps the most impact
on this phase is the design document, this document is similar to a blue print or
plan for the solution and it is used later during implementation, testing and
maintenance.

The design activity is often divided into two separate phases- system design and
detailed design. System design, which is sometimes also called top-level design, it
aims to identify modules that should be in the system. The specification of these
modules and how they interact with each other to produce the desired results at the
end of system design, all the major data structure file formats, output formats and
the major modules in the system and their specification are decide.
During detail design, the internal logic of each of the modules specified design is
decided. During these phases, further details of the data structures and algorithm
design of each of the modules is specified. The logic of the module is usually
specified in a high-level design description language, which is independent of the
target language in which the software will eventually be implemented.
In system design, the focus is on identifying the modules whereas during detailed
design, the focuses on designing the designing the logic for each of the modules, in
other words, in system designing the attention is on what components are needed,
while in detailed design, how the components can be implemented in software is
45
the issue, a design methodology is a systematic approach to creating a design by
application of a set of techniques and guidelines .Most methodologies focus on
system design.

The purpose of the design phases is to plan a solution of the problem specified by
the specification document. This phase is the first step in moving from the problem
domain to the solution domain. In the other words, start in with what is needed;
design takes us toward how to satisfy the needs.
Design of the system is the critical factor affecting the quality of software, and has
major impact on later phases such as testing and maintenance.

Two types of design are: -


1) Detailed design.
2) System design

System design is also called top-level design aim to identify modules that should
be in the system .The specification of these modules and how they interact with
each other to produce the desired results.
During detail design, the internal logic of each of the modules specified design is
decided. In system design, the focus is on identifying the modules whereas during
detailed design the focuses on designing the designing the logic for each of the
modules.

46
TESTING
Testing is the process used to help identify the correctness, completeness security,
and quality of developed computer software. Testing is a process of technical
investigation, performed on behalf of stakeholders, that is intended to reveal
quality-related information about the product with respect to the context in which it
is intended to operate.

A small system error can conceivably explode into a much larger problem.
Effective testing early in the process translates directly into long term cost savings
from a reduced number of errors. Another reason for project testing is its utility as
a user oriented vehicle before implementation .The best program is worthless if it
does not meet user needs. Unfortunately, the users demands are often
compromised by efforts to facilitate program or design efficiency in terms or
memory utilization.
Testing plays a critical role in quality assurance for software. Due to the limitation
of the verification method for the previous phases, design and requirement fault
also appear in the code. Testing is used to detect these errors, in addition to the
error introduced during coding phase.
Testing is a dynamic method for verification and validation, where the system is to
be tested is executed and behavior of the system is observed. Due to this testing the
failure of the system can be observed, from which the presence of fault can be
deduced. However, separate activities have to be performed to identify the faults.

There are two method of testing:


Functional
Structural

In functional testing, the internal logic of the system under testing is not
considered and the test cases are decided from the specification or the
requirements. It is often called Black Box Testing
.
In structural testing, the test cases are decided entirely on the internal logic of the
program or module being tested.
The basic steps of testing have been picked from software engineering practices.
The following are the steps, we undertook:

47
The content of the Intranet site is reviewed to uncover Content errors. Content
Errors covers the typographical errors, grammatical errors, errors in content
consistency, graphical representation and cross referencing errors

2. The design model of the web application is reviewed to uncover the navigation
errors. Use cases, derived as a part of the analysis activity allows a web designer to
exercise each usage scenario against the architectural and navigational design. In
essence these non-executable tests help to uncover the errors in navigation.

3. When web applications are considered the concept of unit changes. Each web
page encapsulates content navigation links, content and processing elements
(Forms, Scripts in our case). It is not always possible to test each of these
individually. Thus is the base of the web applications the unit to be considered is
the web page. Unlike the testing of the algorithmic details of a module the data that
flows across the module interface, page level testing for web applications is driven
by content, processing and links encapsulating the web page.

4. The Assembled web application is tested for overall functionality and content
delivery. The various user cases are used that test the system for errors and
mistakes.

5. The Web application is tested for a variety of environmental settings and is


tested for various configurations and upon various platforms.

TESTING OBJECTIVES:

The main objective of testing is to uncover a host of errors, systematically and with
minimum effort and time. Stating formally, we can say,
1. Testing is a process of executing a program with the intent of finding an error.

2. A successful test is one that uncovers an as yet undiscovered error.

3. A good test case is one that has a high probability of finding error, if it exists.

4. The tests are inadequate to detect possibly present errors.

5. The software more or less confirms to the quality and reliable standards.

48
LEVELS OF TESTING

In order to uncover the errors present in different phases, we have the concept of
levels of testing. The basic levels of testing are:

Client Needs Acceptance Testing

Requirements System Testing

Design Integration Testing

Code Unit Testing

Unit testing
Unit testing focuses verification effort on the smallest unit of software i.e. the
module. Using the detailed design and the process specifications, testing is done to
uncover errors within the boundary of the module. All modules must be successful
in the unit test before the start of the integration testing begins.

In this project each service can be thought of a module. There are modules like
Login, Registration, etc. Each module has been tested by giving different sets of
inputs. When developing the module as well as finishing the development, the
module works without any error. The inputs are validated when accepting them
from the user.

Integration Testing
After unit testing, we have to perform integration testing. The goal here is to see if
modules can be integrated properly, the emphasis being on testing interfaces
between modules. This testing activity can be considered as testing the design and
hence the emphasis on testing module interactions.
In this project the main system is formed by integrating all the modules. When
integrating all the modules I have checked whether the integration effects working
of any of the services by giving different combinations of inputs with which the
two services run perfectly before Integration.

System Testing
Here the entire software system is tested. The reference document for this process
is the requirements document, and the goal is to see if software meets its
requirements. Here entire functionality has been tested against requirements of
49
project and it is checked whether all requirements of project have been satisfied or
not.

Acceptance Testing
Acceptance Testing is performed with realistic data of the client to demonstrate
that the software is working satisfactorily. Testing here is focused on external
behavior of the system; the internal logic of program is not emphasized.

White Box Testing


This is a unit testing method, where a unit will be taken at a time and tested
thoroughly at a statement level to find the maximum possible errors. We tested step
wise every piece of code, taking care that every statement in the code is executed
at least once. The white box testing is also called Glass Box Testing. We have
generated a list of test cases, sample data, which is used to check all possible
combinations of execution paths through the code at every module level.
White-box test focuses on the program control structure. Test cases are derived to
ensure that all statement in the program control structure. Test cases are derived to
ensure that all statement in the program control structure. Test cases are derived to
ensure that all statement in the program has been executed at least once during
testing and that all logical conditions have been exercised. Basis path testing, a
white box technique, makes use of program graphs (or graph matrices) to derive
the set of linearly independent test that will ensure coverage. Condition and data
flow testing further exercising degrees of complexity.

Black Box Testing


This testing method considers a module as a single unit and checks the unit at
interface and communication with other modules rather getting into details at
statement level. Here the module will be treated as a block that will take some
input and generate output. Output for a given set of input combinations are
forwarded to other modules.
Black-box test are designed to uncover errors functional requirement without
regard to the internal workings of a program. Black-box testing techniques focus
on the information domain of the software, deriving test cases by partitioning the
input and output domain of a program in manner that provides through test
coverage. The black-box test is used to demonstrate that software functions are
operational, that input is properly produced, and that the integrity of external
information are maintained. A black-box test examines some fundamental aspect of
a system with little or no regard for the integral logical structure of the software.

50
Purpose
The purpose of this document is to lay down the test procedure & formats for
testing the functionality of the site.

Test Procedure
Each check and procedure is first checked individually and then its effect is seen
on the other forms.
At all the stages of testing there should be a positive attempt to provoke system
failure to avoid it.

A test strategy needs to include the following type of testing such as:
Program Testing.

String Testing

System Testing

User acceptance testing.

Program Testing:- A Program represents the logical elements of the system It will
be ensured that each program runs satisfactory and it must compile and perform
testing of data correctly.

String Testing:- Program are invariably related to each other to interacts in a total
system. Each program has been tested to check whether it confirms to relate
programs in the system. Each portion of the program will be tested against entire
module with test data before the entire system is ready to be tested.

System Testing:- On completion of whole system each aspect of it will be tested to


ensure no error have been introduced. Guide and other authorized person will test
the system.

User Acceptance Testing:- User will be invited to test the system to ensure that
whether the system is fulfilling the stated objective.

51
Implementation

Implementation is a process, which is used for converting a new system into an


operational one. Implementation of software is to replace a manual system; the
problems encountered are training user, creating accurate files etc.
System implementation is the stage when the user has thoroughly tested the system
and approves all the features provided by the system. The various tests are
performed and the system is approved only after all the requirements are met and
the user is satisfied.
The new system may be totally new; replacing an existing manual or automated
system, or it may a major modification to an existing system. In the either case,
proper implementation is essential to provide a reliable system to meet
organization requirements .successful implementation may not guarantee
improvement in the organization using the new system (that is a design question)
,but improper will prevent it.
Implementation is the process of having systems personal check out and put new
equipment to use, train users, install the new application and construct any files of
data needed to use it. This phase is less creative than system design. Depending on
the size of the organization that will be involve in using the application and the risk
involved in its use, system developer may choose to test the operation in only one
area of the firm with only one or two persons. Sometimes, they will run both old
and new system in parallel way to compare the results. In steel other situations,
system developers stop using the old systems one day and start using the new one
the next.
The implementation of the web based or LAN base network project has some extra
steps at the time of implementation. We need to configure the system according the
requirement of the software.
Implementation of the system involves the following: -

Training
Training is providing to the user of the system and the operator because they are
the ones who will be delaying with the system. Training plays a very important role
as ever technically agent system fails due to poor quality of training the method of
rendering training differs from person to person. In case of operator training, the
focus is to let them handle both entry procedures and vital data etc. In case of user
training, user is explained the explained the fundamental operations along with the
basic knowledge of hardware.

52
Conversation Plan
Processing of changing the old system into a new one, there are various methods of
handling system conversion. However, the pros and cons of each method should be
evaluated before deciding on the final approach. This precaution is very necessary
because success or failure of entire project depends on it. The methods of
conversion are: -

DIRECT CONVERSION.

1 PARALLEL CONVERSION.
2
3 PHASED CONVERSION.

4 PILOT CONVERSION.

They are being further explained as follows:-

Direct Conversion
All users stop using the old system at the same time, then being using the new
system. This option is fast but disruptive.

Parallel Conversion
Users continue to use old system while an increasing amount of data is proceeds
through the new system. The outputs from the two systems are compared: if they
agree then the switch is made which is used to further testing of the new system.

Phased Conversion
Users start using the new system component by component. This option work only
systems, which can be compartmentalized.

Post-Implementation

Internationalization
Internationalization means globalization. It is aimed at developers and team leaders
wanting to create applications which run in more than one language and region
(country).

53
Maintenance

In order for a software system to remain useful in its environment it may be


necessary to carry out a wide range of maintenance activities upon it. There are
bugs to fix, enhancement to add and optimization to make, changes has to be done
in older version to make it application for current use of current version to cater the
need of future.
Maintenance can be of three types: -

Corrective Maintenance

Changers necessitated by actual errors (defects or residual "bugs") in a system are


termed corrective maintenance. These defects manifest themselves when the
system does not operate as it was designed or advertised to do. A defect or bug
can result from design errors, logic errors and coding errors. Design errors occur
when for example changes made to the software are incorrect, incomplete, wrongly
communicated or the change request misunderstood. In the event of a system
failure due to an error, actions are taken to restore operation of the software
system. The approach here is to locate the original specifications in order to
determine what the system was originally designed to do.

Adaptive Maintenance
1 Any effort that is initiated as a result of changes in the environment in which
a software system must operate is termed adaptive change. Adaptive change is a
change driven by the need to accommodate modifications in the environment of
the software system, without which the system would become increasingly less
useful until it became obsolete.

The term environment in this context refers to all the conditions and influences
which act from outside upon the system, for example business rules, government
policies, work patterns, software and hardware operating platforms. A change to
the whole or part of this environment will warrant a corresponding modification of
the software.

54
Perfective Maintenance
1 his is actually the most common type of maintenance encompassing
enhancements both to the function and the efficiency of the code and includes all
changes, insertions, deletions, modifications, extensions, and enhancements made
to a system to meet the evolving and/or expanding needs of the user. A successful
piece of software tends to be subjected to a succession of changes resulting in an
increase in its requirements. This is based on the premise that as the software
becomes useful, the users tend to experiment with new cases beyond the scope for
which it was initially developed. Expansion in requirements can take the form of
enhancement of existing system functionality or improvement in computational
efficiency.

Though efforts have been made to develop error free systems, but no system is
perfect, room for improvement is always there. Thus proper documentation for the
system has been done so that it will be easy to handle any breakdown or any other
type of system maintenance activity.

55
User Manual
The main aim of the project is to develop a Resource Module for the Intranet
Automation of resource Software. It has an Intranet through which all the
employees in the company will be knit together. It has different modules such as
Resource Management, adding new employee, administrators task, project
managers task etc., connecting the employees in the company.
Resource Module is the Intranet in which all the information regarding the
employees in the company will be present. The module has been developed with
good Interaction / communication facilities between the employees and
Administrator.
