Store your information project ( Week 12 )

This week I met Maryam Moosa, Bushra and Mira because all of us are doing the same duty. I asked them to discuss the duty together and assist each other in this project. I showed them the functional specification tutorial that I found and they benefited from the tutorial because it has many examples of models that will help us to design the application. http://www.mojofat.com/tutorial/index.html this is the link of the tutorial. After the discussion we decided to conduct a meeting next week to start doing the application. Moreover, we talked to Mr. Tridib about the tutorial and we showed him the examples and he was pleased to see us working together to accomplish the project. Mr. Tridib added a new task for the students who have the first duty which is designing the forms and Asma will assist me to do that in our group.

Store your information project ( Week 11 )

In week 11 Mr. Tridib explained some features such as CD collection and phpMyadmin in http://localhost/xampp/ website which is a tutorial website that will assist us to accomplish store your information project. Now I understood exactly what to do in my duty also, I have a general idea about my colleagues’ duties. Moreover, Mr. Tridib gave us an idea about how to convert Access file to MySQL. I searched about functional specification and I found a very useful functional specification tutorial. This tutorial was helpful because it clarified many models with their examples and how to create a design document. On Sunday 19th of April I will show Mr. Tridib the model that I will use to design the application.

Store your information project ( Week 10 )

On Thursday Mr. Tridib met all students who have the same duties, he asked us about what we have done so far, and he explained the duty for the students who have the same duties. My duty is more than testing the application, therefore I have to find out what is the functional specification of the application. “Functional specification is the set of documentation that describes the requested behavior of an engineering system. The documentation typically describes what is needed by the system user as well as requested properties of inputs and outputs (e.g. of the software system)” (Wikipedia). As well, we have to create a website by using Dreamweaver program and design the pages of the application. Every day we have to spend at least an hour to accomplish this project. At this time, I should think how to describe the procedures to submit the plan of the application and start to scratch the basic design of the application.
