Property Management

workforce. . The function of Property management is to update the proprty records, customer records, payment dealing with the customers, and many more. In this product the owner can update all the details and the customeras can view the property details. All the information regarding properties will be available on the website so that there is no need to visit the site for gathering informations, which saves time. All the records can be maintained online.

1.3.1 Search By Pid and City

This includes searching of the available property either by the property Id (Pid) generated at the time of posting the property or by the City (Location) where the property is available.

1.3.2 Search By Complete DetialsIn this type of searching facility a user can search a property by providing all the necessary details such as Pid, Cost, Location , Property type, Bedroom available and many more.

1.3.3 RegistrationsA new customer who is interested in buying a property from the owner can register himself/herself and can get the complete information regarding the available property. And can give the feedback to the owner as well.

1.3.4 Post PropertyNot only the owner but a customer can also post his property which can be viewed by the owner and after that he can post this property.

1.3.5 Update DetailsOwner can update all the property details , members details, feedback, contact information’s as per need.

1.4 Other Nonfunctional Requirements


Property Management

1.4.1 Performance Requirements

The system must have certain assumptions made which are:

• For the system to work properly, either Windows latest version or an

equivalent operating system must be used.

• The system has no dependencies since system does not depend on any

other database.

• The system has My- SQL installed in it

1.4.2 Safety Requirements

In case there is sudden damage or failure which tends to loss of your data software

must have means to recover from it .Backup facility will be provided in case this

happens. Also other things like network problem or other all these is managed

properly.

1.4.3 Security Requirements

Suitable safety has to be taken while giving id’s and password to Admin and

customers .We must make sure everyone has its own unique id and should not be

disclosed.

Separate account for users with access types. As many people will be accessing the

system simultaneously or separately, so it is necessary to maintain different account

and access rights for the users.


Property Management

Security implemented through account and login. The system need to be very secure

apart from the automation, so it do not allow the users to make unwanted changes in

any part of the system and it should not allow the unwanted users

1.4.4 Software Quality Attributes

The system is easy to load and light .It adds to the quality and usability of the system.

Some others quality considerations such as adaptability, availability, correctness,

flexibility, interoperability, maintainability, portability, reliability, reusability,

robustness, testability, and usability will also be very seriously taken to consideration.

ANALYSIS AND DESIGN


Property Management

CHAPTER 2

Analysis and Design

2.1 UML Diagram

2.1.1 Class Diagram

Class diagram is a type of static structure diagram that describes the structure of a system by

showing the system's classes, their attributes, operations(or)methods and the relationships

between the classes. A class icon is simply a rectangle divided into three compartments. The

topmost compartment contains the name of the class. The middle compartment contains a list

of attributes (member variables), and the bottom compartment contains a list of operations

(member functions). In many diagrams, the bottom two compartments are omitted. Even when

they are present, they typically do not show every attribute and operations. The goal is to

show only those attributes and operations that are useful for the particular diagram.


Property Management

Class diagrams are widely used to describe the types of objects in a system and their

relationships. Class diagrams model class structure and contents using design elements such

as classes, packages and objects. Class diagrams describe three different perspectives when

designing a system, conceptual, specification, and implementation. These perspectives

become evident as the diagram is created and help solidify the design.

Description = It shows the relationship between Owner, members and visitors, where

owner registers members and updates other information’s.

Preconditions = User must be logged into the system.

Normal Flow of event = Owner> registers members>Save.

Normal Flow of event =Owner> updates information> save.

Post Condition =none.


Property Management

2.1.2 Activity Diagram

Activity diagrams are graphical representations of workflows of stepwise activities and

actions with support for choice, iteration and concurrency. In the Unified Modeling

Language, activity diagrams can be used to describe the business and operational step-

by-step workflows of components in a system. An activity diagram shows the overall

flow of control.

2. Name of Activity diagram= Employee


Property Management

Description = It shows the activities of Customer


Normal Flow of event = All activities

Post Condition = None.

2.1.3 Sequence Diagram


Property Management

Sequence diagrams provide a graphical representation of object interactions over time.

These typically show a user or actor, and the objects and components they interact with in the

execution of a use case. One sequence diagram typically represents a single Use Case

'scenario' or flow of events. Correspond to the methods and events supported by a

class/object.UML sequence diagrams are used to represent or model the flow of messages,

events and actions between the objects or components of a system. Time is represented in the

vertical direction showing the sequence of interactions of the header elements, which are

displayed horizontally at the top of the diagram.

Sequence Diagram : Login by owner and members.

Description = Login can be done by both the owner and members.

Preconditions = User must be registered into the system.

Normal Flow of event = email_id>Password > Logged in.

Post Condition= None.

Sequence Diagram2 : Register members and update property details


Property Management

Description = Owner can update the property and payment details.


Normal Flow of event = Login > Update property/ Payment details> save.

3.7.1.2:- Name of usecase diagram : Members

Description = It describes about the functionalities of user members.

Preconditions = None.

Normal Flow of event = All the activities done by members.



Property Management

2.1.5 Component Diagram

In the Unified Modeling Language, a component diagram depicts how components are

wired together to form larger components and or software systems. They are used to

illustrate the structure of arbitrarily complex systems. Components are wired together

by using an assembly connector to connect the required interface of one component

with the provided interface of another component. This illustrates the service

consumer - service provider relationship between the two components. An assembly

connector is a "connector between two components that defines that one component

provides the services that another component requires. An assembly connector is a

connector that is defined from a required interface or port to a provided interface or

port. When using a component diagram to show the internal structure of a component,

the provided and required interfaces of the encompassing component can delegate to

the corresponding interfaces of the contained components

Description = It shows the component of Owner

Preconditions = None

Normal Flow of event = None


2. Component diagram of members.


Property Management

Description = It shows the component of Membe

Preconditions = None

Normal Flow of event = None


2.2 Entity-Relationship Diagram

An entity-relationship (ER) diagram is a specialized graphic that illustrates the

interrelationships between entities in a database. ER diagrams often use symbols to represent

three different types of information. Boxes are commonly used to represent entities.

Diamonds are normally used to represent relationships and ovals are used to represent

attributes.

Entity-relationship diagrams don't show single entities or single instances of relations. Rather,

they show entity sets and relationship sets. Example: a particular song is an entity. The

collection of all songs in a database is an entity set. The eaten relationship between a child

and her lunch is a single relationship. The set of all such child-lunch relationships in a


Property Management

database is a relationship set. In other words, a relationship set corresponds to a relation in

mathematics, while a relationship corresponds to a member of the relation.

CHAPTER 3IMPLEMENTATION

AND TESTING

CHAPTER 3IMPLEMENTATION AND TESTING

3.1 Technology Overview

3.1.1 NET-

The .NET Framework is a software framework that runs primarily on Microsoft

Windows. It includes a large library and supports several programming languages


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programming_language

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Library_(computing)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Windows


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_framework

Property Management

which allows language interoperability (each language can use code written in other

languages).

ASP.NET is a web application framework developed and marketed by Microsoft to

allow programmers to build dynamic web sites, web applications and web services. It

was first released in January 2002 with version 1.0 of the .NET Framework, and is the

successor to Microsoft's Active Server Pages (ASP) technology. ASP.NET is built on

the Common Language Runtime (CLR), allowing programmers to write ASP.NET

code using any supported .NET language. ASP.NET aims for performance benefits over

other script-based technologies (including Classic ASP) by compiling the server-side code to

one or more DLL files on the web server. This compilation happens automatically the first

time a page is requested (which means the developer need not perform a separate compilation

step for pages). This feature provides the ease of development offered by scripting languages

with the performance benefits of a compiled binary. However, the compilation might cause a

noticeable but short delay to the web user when the newly-edited page is first requested from

the web server, but will not again unless the page requested is updated further.

3.1.2 HTML

HTML, which stands for Hyper Text Markup Language, is the predominant markup

language for web pages. HTML is the basic building-blocks of web pages. The

purpose of a web browser is to read HTML documents and compose them into visual

or audible web pages. The browser does not display the HTML tags, but uses the tags

to interpret the content of the page. It provides a means to create structured documents

by denoting structural semantics for text such as headings, paragraphs, lists, links,

quotes and other items. It can embed scripts in languages such as JavaScript which

affect the behavior of HTML web pages.

SQL Server is a Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) designed to run on

platforms ranging from laptops to large multiprocessor servers. SQL Server is commonly used

as the backend system for websites and corporate CRMs and can support thousands of

concurrent users.

SQL Server comes with a number of tools to help you with your database administration and

programming tasks.

SQL Server is much more robust and scalable than a desktop database management system

such as Microsoft Access. Anyone who has ever tried using Access as a backend to a website

will probably be familiar with the errors that were generated when too many users tried to

access the database!

3.1.4 Tools

3.1.4.1 Visual Studio

Microsoft Visual Studio is an integrated development environment (IDE) from

Microsoft. It can be used to develop console and graphical user interface applications

along with Windows Forms applications, web sites, web applications, and web

services in both native code together with managed code for all platforms supported by

Microsoft Windows, Windows Mobile, Windows CE, .NET Framework, .NET

Compact Framework and Microsoft Silverlight. Visual Studio supports different

programming languages by means of language services, which allow the code editor

and debugger to support (to varying degrees) nearly any programming language,

provided a language-specific service exists.

Microsoft Office is a proprietary commercial office suite of inter-related desktop

applications, servers and services for the Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X operating

systems, introduced by Microsoft in 1989. Initially a marketing term for a bundled set

of applications, the first version of Office contained Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel,

and Microsoft PowerPoint. Over the years, Office applications have grown

substantially closer with shared features such as a common spell checker, OLE data

integration and Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications scripting language. Microsoft

also positions Office as a development platform for line-of-business software under the

Office Business Applications brand.

1. A system is viewed as something that performs a set of objects. Starting at this

high level view of the system, each object is successively refined into more

detailed objects. For example, consider a object create new user, and in this

administrator can create a simple user.

2. The system state is centralized and shared among different objects, example.

We can perform add, delete and update in playlists.

3.4 Testing

3.4.1 Testing Strategy

Definition: Testing is an empirical investigation conducted to provide stakeholders with information about the quality of the product or service under test, with respect to the context in which it is intended to operate. Software Testing also provides an objective, independent view of the software to allow the business to appreciate and understand the risks at implementation of the software. Test techniques include, but are not limited to, the process of executing a program or application with the intent of finding software bugs It can also be stated as the process of validating and verifying that a software program/application/product meets the business and technical requirements that guided its design and development, so that it works as expected and can be implemented with the same characteristics.

Software Testing, depending on the testing method employed, can be implemented at any time in the development process, however the most test effort is employed after the requirements have been defined and coding process has been completed.It is a process of executing a program with the intent of finding an error. A good test case is one that has a high probability of finding an as-yet-undiscovered error.A successful test is one that uncovers an as-yet-undiscovered error. These objectives imply a dramatic change in viewpoint. They move counter to the commonly held view that a successful test is one in which no errors are found. Our main objective is to design tests that systematically uncover different classes of errors and do so with a minimum amount of time and effort.

3.4.2 Testing principal - All the tests should be traceable to customer requirements. The objective of software testing is to uncover errors. It follows that the mot sever defects are those that cause the program to fail to meet its requirements. Tests should be planned long before testing begins. Test planning can begin as soon as the requirements model is complete. Detailed definition of test cases can begin as soon as the design model has been solidified. Therefore all tests should be planned and designed before any code has been generated.

3.4.3 Testing Methods –

A rich variety of test case design methods have evolved for software. These methods provide the developer with a systematic approach to testing. These methods provide a mechanism that can help to ensure the completeness of tests and provide the highest likelihood for uncovering errors in software.


Property Management

Any engineered product can be tested in one of two ways:

3.4.3.1.Black box or functional testing: Functional or black box testing is an approach to testing where the tests are delivered from the program or component specification. The system is a black box whose behavior can only be determined by studying its inputs and the related outputs. Another name for this is functional testing because the tester is only concerned with the functionality and not the implementation of the software. Functional testing refers to testin which involves only observation of the output for certain input values and there is no attempt to analyze the code, which produces the outputs. The internal structure of the program is ignored.

Functional testing covers the following types of testing-

• Equivalent partitioning• Boundary value analysis• Orthogonal array testing • Cause-effect graphing

3.4.3.2. White box or glass box or structural testing:

structural testing is an approach to testing where the tests are desired from knowledge of the software’s structure and implementation. Objective of structural testing is to exercise all program statements.In structure testing, test group must have complete knowledge about the internal structure of the software. Structure testing is usually applied to relatively small program units such as subroutine, or the operations associated with an object as the name implies, the tester can analyze the code and use knowledge about the structure of a component to derive test data.

Structural testing covers the following types of testing methods-

• Basic path testing • Condition testing• Data flow testing • Loop testing

3.5 Test Plan

3.5.1 Test Case Design

The system developed has to be tested to check whether it conforms to the specification. The

testing is done to guarantee that the system is functioning as defined in the requirements


Property Management

specification and is free of known errors and bugs. Using test data and examining the outputs

of the system helps to track errors that may present in the system. This is done at various

stages of development to ensure that each stage is free of errors.

The different testing strategies used are:

1. Unit testing

Different units of the systems are tested separately. Certain set of inputs are given to the

different modules of the system, and output from each module is verified.

2. System testing

Entire system is tested as a whole unit. Selected set of inputs are given to the system .Some

feedback forms are filled by entering in to the system in user login, then the feedbacks are

verified, by analyzing them, by login in to system as administrator.

3. Black box testing

Various inputs are given and the outputs are verified. Here the functionality of the system is

verified, by giving certain feedback as input, and verifying the retrieved feedback, which is

the output. The functionality of the system is tested with out referring to the source code of

the system.

4. White box testing

Different sections of the code is analyzed and tested, that it will work correctly, without any

errors and bugs.

Results:

The results are verified by observing the input and output.
