The software quality plan we will use the following SQA Strategy:
In the first step, we will select the test factors and rank them. The selected test
factors such as reliability, maintainability, portability or etc, will be placed in the
matrix according to their ranks.
The second step is for identifying the phases of the development process. The
phase should be recorded in the matrix.
The third step is that identifying the business risks of the software deliverables.
The risks will be ranked into three ranks such as high, medium and low.

Identification of need:
The old manual system was suffering from a series of drawbacks. Since whole of
the system was to be maintained with hands the process of keeping, maintaining and
retrieving the information was very tedious and lengthy. The records were never used to
be in a systematic order. there used to be lots of difficulties in associating any particular
transaction with a particular context. If any information was to be found it was required
to go through the different registers, documents there would never exist anything like
report generation. There would always be unnecessary consumption of time while
entering records and retrieving records. One more problem was that it was very difficult
to find errors while entering the records. Once the records were entered it was very
difficult to update these records.
The reason behind it is that there is lot of information to be maintained and have
to be kept in mind while running the business .For this reason we have provided
features Present system is partially automated (computerized), actually existing system
is quite laborious as one has to enter same information at three different places.
Documents and reports that must be provided by the new system: there can also
be few reports, which can help management in decision-making and cost
controlling, but since these reports do not get required attention, such kind of
reports and information were also identified and given required attention.

information, which will be at the click of the mouse. So the proposed system helps
in saving the time in different operations and making information flow easy giving
valuable reports.

Feasibility Study:
After doing the project Online Book Store, study and analyzing all the existing or
required functionalities of the system, the next task is to do the feasibility study for the
project. All projects are feasible - given unlimited resources and infinite time.
Feasibility study includes consideration of all the possible ways to provide a solution to
the given problem. The proposed solution should satisfy all the user requirements and
should be flexible enough so that future changes can be easily done based on the
future upcoming requirements.
A. Economical Feasibility
This is a very important aspect to be considered while developing a project. We
decided the technology based on minimum possible cost factor.
All hardware and software cost has to be borne by the organization.
Overall we have estimated that the benefits the organization is going to receive
from the proposed system will surely overcome the initial costs and the later on
running cost for system.
B. Technical Feasibility
This included the study of function, performance and constraints that may affect
the ability to achieve an acceptable system. For this feasibility study, we studied
complete functionality to be provided in the system, as described in the System
Requirement Specification (SRS), and checked if everything was possible using
different type of frontend and backend plaformst.
C. Operational Feasibility
No doubt the proposed system is fully GUI based that is very user friendly and all
inputs to be taken all self-explanatory even to a layman. Besides, a proper training has
been conducted to let know the essence of the system to the users so that they feel
comfortable with new system. As far our study is concerned the clients are comfortable
and happy as the system has cut down their loads and doing.

In this phase, a logical system is built which fulfils the given requirements. Design
phase of software development deals with transforming the clientss requirements into a
logically working system. Normally, design is performed in the following in the following
two steps:
The general tasks involved in the design process are the following:

User Interface Design is concerned with the dialogue between a user and the
computer. It is concerned with everything from starting the system or logging into the
system to the eventually presentation of desired inputs and outputs. The overall flow of
The following steps are various guidelines for User Interface Design:
5. Default values for fields and answers to be entered by the user should be
specified.
7. The system user should never get an operating system message or fatal error.

The first step in the system development life cycle is the preliminary investigation
to determine the feasibility of the system. The purpose of the preliminary investigation is
to evaluate project requests. It is not a design study nor does it include the collection of
details to describe the business system in all respect. Rather, it is the collecting of
information that helps committee members to evaluate the merits of the project request
and make an informed judgment about the feasibility of the proposed project.
Benefit to Organization
The initial cost of setting up the system will include the cost of hardware software
(OS, add-on software, utilities) & labour (setup & maintenance). The same has to bear
by the organization.

Running Cost
Besides, the initial cost the long term cost will include the running cost for the
system including the AMC, stationary charges, cost for human resources, cost for
update/renewal of various related software.
The users along with the administrator need to be trained at the time of
implementation of the system for smooth running of the system. The client will provide
the training site.
We talked to the management people who were managing a the financial issues
of the center, the staff who were keeping the records in lots of registers and the
reporting manager regarding their existing system, their requirements and their
expectations from the new proposed system. Then, we did the system study of the
entire system based on their requirements and the additional features they wanted to
incorporate in this system.
Reliable, accurate and secure data was also considered to be a complex task
without this proposed system. Because there was no such record for keeping track of all
the activities, which was done by the Online Book Store on the daily basis.
The new system proposed and then developed by me will ease the task of the
organization in consideration. It will be helpful in generating the required reports by the
staff, which will help them to track their progress and services.
Thus, it will ease the task of Management to a great extent as all the major
activities to be performed, are computerized through this system.

Project Category
RDBMSs have become a predominant choice for the storage of information in new
databases used for financial records, manufacturing and logistical information,
personnel data, and much more since the 1980s. Relational databases have often
replaced legacy hierarchical databases and network databases because they are easier
to understand and use. However, relational databases have been challenged by object
databases, which were introduced in an attempt to address the object-relational
impedance mismatch in relational database, and XML databases.

Implementation Methodology:
Model View Controller or MVC as it is popularly called, is a software design pattern for
developing web applications. A Model View Controller pattern is made up of the
following three parts:
Model - The lowest level of the pattern which is responsible for maintaining data.
View - This is responsible for displaying all or a portion of the data to the user.
Controller - Software Code that controls the interactions between the Model and
View.
MVC is popular as it isolates the application logic from the user interface layer and
supports separation of concerns. Here the Controller receives all requests for the
application and then works with the Model to prepare any data needed by the View. The
View then uses the data prepared by the Controller to generate a final presentable
response. The MVC abstraction can be graphically represented as follows.

Data Dictionary:
This is normally represented as the data about data. It is also termed as metadata
some times which gives the data about the data stored in the database. It defines each
data term encountered during the analysis and design of a new system. Data elements
can describe files or the processes.
= equivalent to
+ and
[] either/ or
() Optional entry
Following are some rules, which defines the construction of data dictionary
entries:
1. Words should be defined to understand for what they need and not the
variable need by which they may be described in the program .
2. Each word must be unique. We cannot have two definition of the
same client.
3. Aliases or synonyms are allowed when two or more enters shows
the same meaning. For example a vendor number may also be called as
customer number.
4. A self-defining word should not be decomposed. It means that the reduction
of any information in to subpart should be done only if it is really required
that is it is not easy to understand directly.
Data dictionary includes information such as the number of records in file, the
frequency a process will run, security factor like pass word which user must enter
to get excess to the information.

In a nutshell, it can be summarized that the future scope of the project circles
around maintaining information regarding:
The above mentioned points are the enhancements which can be done to increase
the applicability and usage of this project. Here we can maintain the records of Books
and Stock. Also, as it can be seen that now-a-days the players are versatile, i.e. so
there is a scope for introducing a method to maintain the Online Book Store.
Enhancements can be done to maintain all the Books, Stock, Customer, Order,
Payment.
We have left all the options open so that if there is any other future requirement
in the system by the user for the enhancement of the system then it is possible to
implement them.In the last we would like to thanks all the persons involved in the
development of the system directly or indirectly. We hope that the project will serve its
purpose for which it is develop there by underlining success of process.

Although I have put my best efforts to make the software flexible, easy to operate
but limitations cannot be ruled out even by me. Though the software presents a broad
range of options to its users some intricate options could not be covered into it; partly
because of logistic and partly due to lack of sophistication. Paucity of time was also
major constraint, thus it was not possible to make the software foolproof and dynamic.
Lack of time also compelled me to ignore some part such as storing old result of the
candidate etc.
Considerable efforts have made the software easy to operate even for the people
not related to the field of computers but it is acknowledged that a layman may find it a
bit problematic at the first instance. The user is provided help at each step for his
convenience in working with the software.
Excel export has not been developed for Books, Stock due to some criticality.
The transactions are executed in off-line mode, hence on-line data for Customer,
Order capture and modification is not possible.
