Preface
Industrial training is must for each and every student and especially for technical students
for successive completion of their studies. The study remains incomplete without having
the practical knowledge of what we have gone through theory. It is rather important for
every student to be practical along with his theoretical knowledge. Today there is a need
of more perspective and systematic alignment of a student along with his knowledge.
Without having any lagging effect of a student should have admirable knowledge of the
practical field. Enclosures regarding this field should be made with every respect and
viewpoint.
So I conclude that industrial visit is most important for each and every student along withtheoretical knowledge.

2. Introduction:
2.1 About Appraisal Management System :
Performance appraisal is the process of obtaining, analyzing and recording information
about the relative worth of an employee. The focus of the performance appraisal is
measuring and improving the actual performance of the employee and also the future
potential of the employee. Its aim is to measure what an employee does
.
According to Flippo, A prominent personality in the field of Human resources,
performance appraisal is the systematic, periodic and an impartial rating of an
employees excellence in the matters pertaining to his present job and his potential for a
better job." Performance appraisal is a systematic way of reviewing and assessing the
performance of an employee during a given period of time and planning for his future.
2.2 Objectives of Appraisal Management System:
To review the performance of the employees over a given period of time.
To judge the gap between the actual and the desired performance
Self assessment by employee
Understanding strength and weakness.
Identifying potential.
Better understanding between appraised and appraiser.
-
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report
12/84
Recognizing achievements.
Setting goal.
Improved organizational performance.
2.3 Scope of Appraisal Management System :
The scope of any performance appraisal should include the following : provide
employees with a better understanding of their role and responsibilities; increase
confidence through recognizing strengths while identifying training needs to improveweaknesses; improve workingrelationshipsand communication between supervisors
and subordinates; increase commitment to organizational goals; develop employees into
future supervisors; assist in personnel decisions such as promotions or allocating
rewards; and allow time for self-reflection, self-appraisal and personal goal setting.
2.4 The benefits from the solution :
Benefits of Employee Performance Appraisal System includes :
Planning work and setting expectations,
Continually monitoring performance,
Developing the capacity to perform,
Periodicallyrating performance in a summary fashion, and
Rewarding good performance
Performance management is the systematic process by which an organization involves its
employees, as individuals and members of a group, in improving organizational
effectiveness in the accomplishment of organization mission and goals.

It is a powerful tool to calibrate, refine and reward the performance of the
employee. It helps to analyze his achievements and evaluate his contribution towards the
achievements of the overall organizational goals.
2.5) Technologies Language and platform used:
Various technologies used are :
Struts Spring
JSP
AJAX
JQUERY
JDBC
JAVASCRIPT
HTML
CSS
2.6) Challenges of Appraisal Management System :
In order to make a performance appraisal system effective and successful, an
organization comes across various challenges and problems. The main challenges
involved in the performance appraisal process are:
Determining the evaluation criteria
Identification of the appraisal criteria is one of the biggest problems faced by the top
management. The performance data to be considered for evaluation should be carefully
-
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report
14/84
selected. For the purpose of evaluation, the criteria selected should be in
quantifiable or measurable terms
Create a rating instrument
The purpose of the performance appraisalprocess is to judge the performance of the
employees rather than the employee. The focus of the system should be on thedevelopment of the employees of the organization.
Lack of competence
Top management should choose the evaluators carefully. They should have the required
expertise and the knowledge to decide the criteria accurately.
Errors in rating and evaluation
Many errors based on the personal bias like stereotyping, halo effect (i.e. one trait
influencing the evaluators rating for all other traits) etc. may creep in the appraisal
process. Therefore the rater should exercise objectivity and fairness in evaluating and
rating the performance of the employees.
Resistance
The appraisal process may face resistance from the employees and the trade unions forthe fear of negative ratings. Therefore, the employees should be communicated and
clearly explained the purpose as well the process of appraisal. The standards should be
clearly communicated and every employee should be made aware that what exactly is
expected from him/her. Constructive criticism can help improve performance, but there is
a fine line between providing helpful feedback and upsetting an employee. Management
should always make sure to recognize and reward excellent performance to avoid coming
off as too negative. Employees who work hard and take pride in their work will have a
hard time correctly utilizing the feedback if none of their accomplishments or positive
contributions are noticed and appreciated.
-
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report
15/84
2.7) Pre-requisites for effective and successful Appraisal Management
System :
The essentials of an effective performance system are as follows:
Documentation means continuous noting and documenting the performance. It
also helps the evaluators to give a proof and the basis of their ratings.
Standards / Goals the standards set should be clear, easy to understand,
achievable, motivating, time bound and measurable.
Practical and simple format - The appraisal format should be
simple, clear, fair and objective. Long and complicated formats are time consuming,
difficult to understand, and do not elicit much useful information.
Evaluation technique An appropriate evaluation technique should be selected;
the appraisal system should be performance based and uniform. The criteria for
evaluation should be based on observable and measurable characteristics of the behavior
of the employees.
Communication Communication is an indispensable part of the performance
appraisal process. The desired behavior or the expected results should be communicated
to the employees as well as the evaluators. Communication also plays an important role
in the review or feedback meeting.
Feedback The purpose of the feedback should be developmental rather than
judgmental. To maintain its utility, timely feedback should be provided to the employees
and the manner of giving feedback should be such that it should have a motivating effect
on the employees future performance.

3. Overall description:
Describes the general factors that affect the product and its requirements
3.1 Project planning:
After analyze the requirement of the system in this phase first we plan to create the
layouts of the system and get the approval from the client. After getting client approval
we can start work on it.
After create layouts we start work on the functionality and also for the designing of the
system when it completes it goes into the testing phase.
-
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report
17/84
3.2 Feasibility study:
If a project is seen to be feasible from the results of the study, the next logical step is to
proceed with it. The research and information uncovered in the feasibility study will
support the detailed planning and reduce the research time.
A well-researched and well-written feasibility study is critical when making "Go/No Go"
decisions regarding entry into new businesses.
3.2.1 Economic Feasibility :
Economic analysis is the most frequently used method for evaluating the effectiveness of
a new system. More commonly known as cost/benefit analysis, the procedure is to
determine the benefits and savings that are expected from a candidate system and
compare them with costs. If benefits outweigh costs, then the decision is made to design
and implement the system.
3.2.2. Technical Feasibility :
This involves questions such as whether the technology needed for the system exists,
how difficult it will be to build, and whether the firm has enough experience using that
technology. The assessment is based on an outline design of system requirements in
terms of Input, Processes, Output, Fields, Programs, and Procedures. This can be
quantified in terms of volumes of data, trends, frequency of updating, etc. in order to
estimate whether the new system will perform adequately or not.
3.2.3 Behavioral Feasibility :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost-benefit_analysishttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost-benefit_analysis -
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report
18/84
People are inherently resistant to change, and computers have been known to
facilitate change. All estimates should be made of how strong a reaction the user staff is
likely to have toward the development of a computerized system. It is common
knowledge that computer installation has something to do with turnover, transfers,
retraining, and changes in employee job status. Therefore, it is understandable that the
introduction of a candidate system requires special effort to educate, sell, and train the
staff on new ways of conducting business.
The feasibility study should be carried out before money is committed to the project (and
before the organization starts to work towards new social, org., and technical
arrangements).
Also, the feasibility of a project should be monitored throughout the development process
(e.g. after the completion of major development stages).
Problems:
Difficulty of forecasting consequences of alternatives
Disbelief in such a traditional justification of projects
3.3 .Product Perspective:
3.3.1 Admin functionality :
Various Admin functionality includes:
Admin can upload any project data file to the system.
Admin can export the ownership records to CSV(Comma Separated Values)
format.

Admin can add new employee record along with his personal details and can also
edit or delete existing records.
Admin can add an external client and the assigned external projects.
Admin can change his as well as any of the employee's password.
3.3.2 Employee's functionality :
Various Employee's functionality includes :

-
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report
21/84
3.5. Technologies used :
3.5.1) Struts Framework:
The model contains the business logic and interact with the persistance storage to store,
retrive and manipulate data.
The view is responsible for dispalying the results back to the user. In Struts the view
layer is implemented using JSP.
The controller handles all the request from the user and selects the appropriate view to
return. In Struts the controller's job is done by the ActionServlet.
-
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report
22/84
The following events happen when the Client browser issues an HTTP
request.
The ActionServlet receives the request.
The struts-config.xml file contains the details regarding
the Actions, ActionForms,ActionMappings and ActionForwards.
During the startup the ActionServelet reads the struts-config.xml file and creates
a database of configuration objects. Later while processing the request
the ActionServlet makes decision by refering to this object.
When the ActionServlet receives the request it does the following tasks.
Bundles all the request values into a JavaBean class which extendsStruts ActionForm class.
Decides which action class to invoke to process the request.
Validate the data entered by the user.
The action class process the request with the help of the model component. The model
interacts with the database and process the request.
After completing the request processing the Action class returns an ActionForward to
the controller.
Based on the ActionForward the controller will invoke the appropriate view.
The HTTP response is rendered back to the user by the view component.
In web.xml, we also need to specify the mapping of application URLs to this servlet. In
the below code any URL with .do extension calls the ActionServlet to handle the request.
ActionServlet
org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet
-
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report
23/84
config
/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml
ActionServlet
/*.do
To carry out an appropriate action for a particular request, the ActionServlet is
configured using Action Mappings in the struts-config.xml file. An Action Mapping
specifies a fully qualified Action class name that should be invoked when a URL
matching its path is requested.
An example of struts-config.xml

3.5.2) Spring Framework:
Using the Spring Framework, one can integrate low-level APIs such as JDBC or high-
level frameworks such as Hibernate into an application using the same technique -
Dependency Injection..
The Spring Frameworkis an open source application framework for the Java platform.
We have used basically two frameworks namely
1.) Spring Bean Injection
2.) Spring JDBC Abstraction
Spring Bean Injection
Objects can be obtained by means ofDependency lookup orDependency injection.
Dependency lookup is a pattern where a caller asks the container object for an object with
a specific name or of a specific type.Dependency injection is a pattern where the
container passes objects by name to other objects, via either constructors, properties, or
factory methods.
Spring JDBC Abstraction
DBC support in the Spring Framework is part of the data access/persistence (also
known as DAO) support provided by the frameworkThe most important feature of DAO
support is consistency. The following are the two ways in which the Spring Frameworkprovides consistency:
1. Consistency in Exception Hierarchy
2. Consistency in Abstract classes
-
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report
25/84
Consistency in Exception Hierarchy: The Spring Framework provides a
translation from technology-specific exceptions such as Hibernate-related exceptions or
JDBC-related exceptions by having its own hierarchy of data access-related exceptions.
The DataAcessException class forms the root of this hierarchy. These exceptions are run-time exceptions instead of checked exceptions (such as Hibernate's proprietary excep-
tions). This helps the developer to handle the non-recoverable errors in the appropriate
layer instead of handling them at DAO level.
Consistency in Abstract classes: The Spring Framework provides a set of abstract class-
es that one can extend (not implement). There is one abstract class each for various data
persistence technologies. These abstract classes have methods that can be used to set the
required configurable properties that are specific to each technology. The main abstractclasses are:
JdbcDaoSupport, which is the super class for accessing data using JDBC. You
must provide a DataSource instance to it. This class, in turn, provides the Jd-bcTemplate instance, created from the supplied DataSource instance, to the sub-
class.
HibernateDaoSupport, which is the super class for Hibernate data access ob-jects. One has to supply an instance of SessionFactory and in turn, it provides aninstance of the HibernateTemplate class.
The following events happen when the Client browser issues an HTTP request :
When any request arrives, web.xml file is read first. The example of web.xml is as
follows :
com.girnarsoft.utils.ContextListener
action
org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet
config/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml
-
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report
26/84
action
*.do
Here the first entry in web.xml is of listener class. The job of listener class is to
read the applicationContext.xml file and according to the dependencies of bean
defined in it, create the object of every bean using XmlBeanFactory class of springframework.
The example ofapplicationContext.xml is as follows :
-
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report
27/84
Now for every request of type *.do, the control goes to action servlet which reads struts-
config.xml file to carry out appropriate action for every request.
An example ofstruts-config.xml :

3.5.3) MySQL :
MySQL is a database. A database is a data storage feature. It can be used to store, sort,
arrange, and display information. MySQL is a functional feature on it's own. MySQL is
most commonly used for Webapplications and for embedded applications and has
become a popular alternative toproprietary database systems because of its speed andreliability. MySQL can run on UNIX,Windowsand Mac OS.
Data Types:
Many data types:
signed/unsigned integers 1, 2, 3, 4, and 8 bytes long, FLOAT, DOUBLE, CHAR,
VARCHAR, TEXT, BLOB, DATE, TIME, DATETIME, TIMESTAMP, YEAR, SET,
ENUM
Fixed-length and variable-length records.
MySQL is a relational database management system.
A relational database stores data in separate tables rather than putting all the data in one
big storeroom. This adds speed and flexibility. The SQL part of MySQL stands for
Structured Query Language. SQL is the most common standardized language used to
access databases and is defined by the ANSI/ISO SQL Standard.
MySQL software is Open Source.
Open Source means that it is possible for anyone to use and modify the software.
Anybody can download the MySQL software from the Internet and use it without paying
anything. If you wish, you may study the source code and change it to suit your needs.
The MySQL Database Server is very fast, reliable, and easy to use.
MySQL Server was originally developed to handle large databases much faster than
existing solutions and has been successfully used in highly demanding production
environments for several years. Although under constant development, MySQL Server

4.2.2 Data Flow Diagram (DFD) :
DFD is a logical data model or process that is made to describe the origin of the data and
the destination where the data out of the system, where data is stored, the process that
produces the data and the interaction between the data stored and the process is imposed
on data.
DFD are often used to describe a system that already exists or the new system will be
developed logically without considering the physical environment where the data flows,
or where data are stored.

DFD is a tool that is used in the system development methodology is structured. Excess
primary data flow approach, namely:
1. Freedom from the implementation of technical systems.
2. Understanding more about the relation to one another in the system and subsystem.
3. Communicate knowledge of the system with the user through the data flow diagram.
4. Analyzing the proposed system to determine whether the data and processes
required are defined.
Besides, there are additional advantages, namely:
1. Can be used as a useful exercise for analyst, so it can better understand the relation to
one another in the system and subsystem.
2. Differentiate the system from the environment by placing boundaries.

3. Can be used as a device to interact with users.
4. Allows analyst describe each component used in the diagram.
4.2.3 Balancing in the DFD :
Flow of data into and out of a process must be the same as the flow of data into
and out of the details of the process on the level / levels below
Name of the data flow into and out of the process must match the name of the flow
of data into and out of the details of the process .
Number and name of an entity outside the process must be equal to the number of
names and entities outside of the details of the process
The issues that must be considered in the DFD which have more than one level:
o There should be a balance between input and output of one level and next level
o Balance between level 0 and level 1 at the input / output of stream data to or from
the terminal on level 0, while the balance between level 1 and level 2 is seen on the
input / output of stream data to / from the process concerned
o Name of the flow of data, data storage and terminals at each level must be the
same if the object same

5.Performance Appraisal:
5.1 Organizational Strategy and Performance Appraisal :
The performance appraisal system serves many organizational objectives and goals.
Besides encouraging high level of performance, the evaluation system is useful in
identifying employees with potential, rewarding performance equitably. And determining
employees' needs for development. These are all the activities that should support the
organizations strategic orientation. Although these activities are clearly instrumental in
achieving corporate plans and long-term growth, typical appraisal systems in most
organizations have been focused on short-term goals.
From the strategic management point of view, organizations can be grouped into three
categories defenders, prospectors and analyzers. Performance appraisal has definite roles
in all the three strategies.
Typically, defenders have a narrow and relatively stable product-market domain.
Because of this narrow focus, these organizations seldom need to make major adjustments
in their technology. Structure or methods of operations. They devote primary attention to
improving the efficiency of their existing operations. Because of the emphasis on buildingskills within the organization, successful defenders use
performance appraisal for identifying training needs. Performance appraisal is usually
more behaviour oriented.
Organizations with a prospector strategy continuously search for different product and
market opportunities. In addition, these organizations regularly experiment with potential
responses to new and emerging environmental trends. Prospectors are often the
harbingers of change. Because of the emphasis on skills identification and acquisition of
human resources from external sources, as opposed to skills building with the
organization, prospectors often use the performance appraisal as a means of identifying
-
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report
47/84
staffing needs. The emphasis is on results. Finally, the focus is on division and
corporate performance evaluation as they compare with other companies during the same
evaluation period. Organizations with an analyzer strategy operate in two types of
product-.market domains. One domain is stable while the other is changing. In their more
innovative areas, managers watch their competitors closely and rapidly adopt the ideas
that appear promising. In general, analyzers use cost effective technologies for stable
products and project or matrix technologies for new product. Analyzers tend to
emphasize both skill building and skill acquisition and employ extensive training
programmes. Thus, these organizations attempt to identify both training as well as
staffing needs. The appraisal systems are considered at the individual, group and
divisional levels. Finally, successful analyzers have a tendency to examine current
performance with past performance within the organization. Cross-sectional comparisons
(comparisons amongcompanies) may also occur.
Whatever the category, a performance appraisal system has strategic importance to a
firm in three ways:
1. Feedback mechanism,
2. Consistency between organizational strategy and job behaviour, and
3. Consistency between organizational values and job behaviour.
5.2 Appraisal process :
Each step in the process is crucial and is arranged logically. Many organizations mak
every effort to approximate the ideal process, resulting in first-rate appraisal systems.
Unfortunately, many others fail to consider one or more of the steps and, therefore, have
less-effective appraisal system.
Various steps of appraisal process are :
Objectives of Appraisal
-
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report
48/84
Establish job Expectation
Design an appraisal performance
Performance interview
Use appraisal data for appropriate purposes
1. Objectives of Appraisal :
Objectives of appraisal include effecting promotions and transfers, assessing training
needs, awarding pay increases, and the like. The emphasis in all these is to correct
problems. Theses objectives are appropriate as long as the approach in appraisal is
individual. In the systems approach, appraisal aims at improving the performance,
instead of merely assessing it. In this approach the emphasis is not on individual
assessment and rewards or punishments. But it is on how work the work system affects
an individuals. In order to use a systems approach, managers must learn to appreciate the
impact that systems levels factors have on individual performance and subordinates must
adjust to lack of competition among individuals. Thus, if a systems approach is going to
be successful, the employee must believe that by working towards shared goals, everyone
will benefit.
2. Establish Job Expectations :
The second step in the appraisal process is to establish job expectations. This includes
informing the employee what is expected of him or her on the job. Normally, a discussion
is held with his or her superior to review the major duties contained in the job place of
formal performance evaluation.
3. Design Appraisal Programme :
Designing an appraisal programme poses several questions which we need to answers.They are: -
1. Formals versus informal appraisal
-
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report
49/84
2. Whose performance is to be assessed?
3. Who are the raters?
4. What problems are encountered?
5. How to solve the problems?
6. What should be evaluated?
7. When to evaluate?
8. What methods of appraisal are to be used?
4. Performance interview :
Performance interview is another step in the appraisal process. Once appraisal has beenmade of employees, the raters should discuss and review the performance with the
ratees, so that they will receive feedback about where they stand in the eyes of superior.
Feedback is necessary to effect improvement in performance, especially when it is
inadequate.
Specifically, performance interview has three goals:
(i) to change behavior of employees whose performance does not meet organisational
requirements or their own personal goals.
(ii) To maintain the behaviour of employees who perform in an acceptable manner and
(iii) to recognize superior performance behaviours so that theywill be continued.
5.Use of appraisal data :
The final step in the evaluation process is the use of evaluation data. The data and
information generated through performance evaluation must be used by the HR
department.

What is Performance Management?
Performance Management is a system and process that link the organization's
goals and strategies to individual and team performance so as to increase organizational
effectiveness. It is a joint process that involves both line managers and their direct reports
("subordinates") who jointly identify common goals/objectives which correlate to the
higher goals of the organization. This process results in the establishment of written
performance expectations (a Performance Agreement) - later used as measures for
feedback and performance appraisals/reviews. Performance Management is THE WAY
to get OVERALL GRIP on what should be happening at all levels in an organization, and
then measuring whether it is indeed happening the way intended. And where this is
not materializing, to identify the cause/s and implement corrective action/s. It is a much
wider concept than the Performance Appraisal/Review. The latter is only one part ofPerformance Management (stage 3 in a 4-stage process) Performance Management
consists of FOUR STAGES: This model is aligned with the WORK NEEDS of
individual employees, which are as follows: To provide for the above needs of an
employee, let's consider what should happen at each stage of the Performance
Management Cycle:
1. Planning Performance:
Performance Measures (Goals, Objectives, Targets, KPI's, Competencies, etc.) for
individual employees (at all levels) are jointly discussed and agreed during one-on-one,
face-to-face meetings with their direct line managers. These are put into a formal, written
Performance Agreement for each staff member. (Performance Agreements can also be
drawn up for entire work teams in organizations where teamwork is paramount.)
2. Managing Performance:
During this stage, employees implement/execute their agreed Objectives/KPI's. They
manage their own performance, assisted by line managers who should aim at removing
performance obstacles in the work environment and providing the necessary resources,
-
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report
51/84
training and coaching. Line managers are also responsible for integrating and
co-ordinating (horizontally and vertically) the Objectives/KPI's of all their
employees/units/teams, monitoring their performance, taking corrective action, and doing
joint problem solving as and when necessary. The leadership, motivation, feedback,
reinforcement and support they need to provide throughout are of utmost importance.
Managing Performance is an ongoing activity that actually runs through all phases of the
Performance Management Cycle. It is the Golden Thread of Performance Management.
3. Reviewing Performance: During formal Performance Appraisal/Review Interviews,
employees and their line managers discuss (and assess) how well the agreed Objectives/KPI'shad been achieved and specified Competencies demonstrated. Problem areas are identified
and corrective measures put in place, including possible coaching and training that the
jobholder needs. Depending on the type of organization and its management philosophy, the
frequency of Performance Appraisals may be any of 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, or 12-monthly (AppraisalSmart caters for all these options).
4. Rewarding Performance: The actual RATING of performance (how well each
Objective/KPI had been achieved and Competencies demonstrated) forms part of thePerformance Appraisal/Review Interview. Rewarding people for good performance takes the
form of monetary incentives or rewards (performance-based pay such as bonuses and/orsalary adjustments). However, the power of non-monetary rewards, such as praise and
recognition, should not be ignored and need to enjoy much more emphases than it generallydoes.

MODULE DESCRIPSION
Ranking Report
Ranking Report describes all about the rank performance of all the
employees in a particular time period taken as an input (Start Date and End
Date).
Further we perform the operation to generate own project list of all the
employees. After getting all the owned projects of particular employee wegenerate individuals performance summary. We calculate the performance
summary of each employee by its own projects list.
In this our projects have following categories and their compatibility value
with A:
Category Equal to how many A
A 1A
B 2A
C 4AD 6A
E 10A
We check the project owned by employee that holds a type of
category shown as above, according to that its share percentage is
calculated for Attempted Share Percentage. Attempted is the total
share percentage of the project that owned by employee.
After successful calculation of attempted we calculate how manyprojects are completed successfully in this period by that employee and
then we add particular share percentage according to project category.
-
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report

We repeat the above said process for each employee to get a
cumulative report for every employee.
This gives us employee performance summary and finally we calculate the
final rank of the employee in FinalA as:
FinalA = Total Successful - (Total Attempted Total Successful)
Charts
Why Charts and Graphs?
Graphs and Charts is the most efficient method for displaying in-
formation in a simple manner. Using this form of representation
helps it's viewers to understand and interpret the information more
easily and efficiently, which otherwise could be a very difficultand tedious process. All forms of Graphs and Charts embodies
some Visual content in the representation.
In this module 3DpieCharts hae been used to display the rank in
visual manner.
List of Employees displayed on page has a link with a name of the
employee which generates 3DPieChart for employee which
shows successful and attempted projects.
To understand the above process here is an example of an employ-
ee with its projects list and its performance calculation :

8 .TESTING
Testing is the major quality control measure used during software development. Its
basic function is to detect errors in the software. During requirement analysis and
design, the output is a document that is usually textual and non-executable. After thecoding phase, computer programs are available that can be executed for testing
purpose. This implies that testing not only has to uncover errors introduced during the
previous phase. Thus, the goal of testing is to uncover requirement, design and coding
errors in the programs. Consequently, different levels of testing are used.
The starting point of testing is unit testing. In this, a module is tested separately and is
often performed by the coder himself simultaneously along with the coding of the
module. The purpose is to exercise the different parts of the module code to detectcoding errors. After this, the modules are gradually integrated to eventually from the
entire system. During integration of the modules, integration testing is performed to
detect design errors by focusing on testing the inter-connection between the modules.
After the system is put together, system testing is performed. Here the system is testedagainst the system requirements to see if all the requirements are met and if system
performs as specified by the requirements. Finally, acceptance testing is performed to
demonstrate to the client, on the real-life data of the client, the operation of the system.
5.1 METHODOLOGY USED FOR TESTING:
There are many strategies that can be used to test the software. At one extreme,
a software team could wait until the system is fully constructed and then conduct tests
on the overall system in hoes of finding errors. This approach, although appealingsimply does not work. It will result in buggy software that disappoints the customer
and end-user. At the other extreme, a software engineer could conduct tests on a daily
basis, whenever any part of the system is constructed. This approach, although lessappealing to many, can be very effective.
-
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report
80/84
A testing strategy that is chosen by most software teams falls between the two
extremes. It takes an incremental view of testing, beginning with the testing of
individual program units, moving to tests designed to facilitate the integration of theunits, and culminating with tests that exercise the constructed system. Each of these
classes of tests is described as follows:
Unit Testing:
Unit testing focuses verification effort on the smallest unit of software design-the software component or module. Using the component-level design description as a
guide, important control paths are tested to uncover errors within the boundary of the
module. The relative complexity of tests and the errors those tests and the errors those
tests uncover is limited by the constrained scope established for unit testing. The unittest focuses on the internal processing logic and data structures within the boundaries
of a component. This type of testing can be conducted in parallel for multiple formultiple components. The module is tested separately and is often performed by thecoder himself simultaneously along with the coding of the module. The purpose is to
exercise the different parts of the module to detect coding errors.
Integration Testing:
Integration testing is a systematic technique for constructing the software
architecture while at the same time conducting tests to uncover errors associated with
interfacing. The objective is to take unit tested components and build a program
structure that has been dictated by design. The modules are gradually integrated toeventually from the entire system. During integration of the modules, integration
testing is performed to detect design errors by focusing on testing the interconnectionbetween the modules.
Regression Testing:
Each time a new module is added as part of integration testing, the software
changes. New data flow paths are established, new I/O may occur and new control
logic is invoked. These changes may cause problems with functions that previouslyworked flawlessly. In the context of an integration testing strategy, regression testing
is the e-execution of some subset of tests that have already been conducted to ensurethat changes have not propagated unintended side effects.
-
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report
81/84
System Testing:
System testing is actually a series of different tests whose primary purpose is to
fully exercise the computer-based system. Although each test has a different purpose,
all work to verify that system elements have been properly integrated and perform
allocated functions.
Testing is an extremely critical and time-consuming activity. It requires proper
planning of the overall testing process. Frequently, the testing process start with a testplan that identifies all the testing related activities that must be performed and
specifies the schedule, allocates the resource and specific guidelines for testing. The
test plan specifies conditions that should be tested, different units to be tested and themanner in which the modules will be integrated together. Then for different test units,
a test case specification document is produced, which lists all the different test cases.
Together with the expected results during the testing of the unit, the specified test
cases are executed and the actual result is compared with the expected output.
Considering the process from a procedural point of view, testing within the context ofsoftware engineering is actually a series of four steps that are implementedsequentially. Initially, tests focus on each component individually, ensuring that if
functions properly as unit, hence, the name unit testing. Unit testing makes heavy use
of white-box testing techniques, exercising specific paths in modules control structureto ensure complete coverage and maximum error detection.
TESTING TECHNIQUES:
As the foal of testing is to detect any errors in the programs, different flavor of
testing are often used. Unit testing are used to test a module or a small collection of
modules and the focus is on detecting coding errors in modules. During integrationtesting modules recombined into sub system, which are then tested. The foal here is to
test the system design. In system testing and acceptance testing, the entire system is
tested. The foal here is to test the fulfillment of the requirement. Structural testing canbe used for unit testing while at higher level mostly functional testing is used.
The primary objective for test case design is to derive a set of test that has the highestlikelihood for uncovering errors in the software. To accomplish this objective, two
different categories of test case design techniques are used White Box Testing and
Black Box Testing.
BLACK BOX TESTING:
-
7/31/2019 Sheetal Report
82/84
Aims to test a given programmers behavior against its specification or
components without making any references to the internal structure of the program to
the algorithm used. Therefore, the source code is not needed. We study the system by
examining its input and related outputs. The key is to devise that have a higherlikelihood of causing outputs that reveals the presence of defeats. We use experience
and knowledge of the domain to identify such test cases. Black Box Testing is rarely
exhaustive and sometimes fails to reveals corruption defeats caused by wired
combination of inputs.
WHITE BOX TESTING:
Used as an important primary testing approach. Code is tested using code scripts,
drivers, stubs etc., which is employed to directly, interface with it and drive the code.The tester can analyze the code and use the knowledge about the structure of a
component to drive test data. This testing is based on the knowledge of structure ofcomponent.
Experienced software developers often say testing never ends it just gets transferred
from you (the software engineer) to your customer. Every time your customer uses theprogram, a test is being conducted. By applying test case design, the software engineer
can achieve more complete testing and thereby uncover and correct the highest
number of errors before the customer tests begin.

10.Maintenance
Once the complete system is tested then the system is delivered to the customer who will
implement it on its organization site. After delivery, any modification or changes can be
made to help in maintenance. This is the complete software development life cycle. This
is the basic general process which is followed to developed each software product .Basis
of various process models are the above mentioned sequential steps only and as the result
of their cycles ,the complete software will be developed.
