INTRODUCTION
 Choose your Career Wisely

1 INTRODUCTION
In this chapter, we will introduce this application, software tools, problem statement, objectives,
scope of this application, proposed application, motivation of this proposed solution, relevance to
courses and tools & techniques which are used to implement this application

1.1 Introduction & History

Student life is full of charm and enjoy and everyone who is in practical life always seem to miss
his/her student life. But the student life also has challenges and problems of its own. The students
of developing countries like Pakistan have lots of problems, such as financial problems, poor
transportation system, language barrier, incompetent teachers and field selection [1].

Today very tough time student have no guidelines about their domain. Student has some specific
knowledge about their domain. They don’t know best field according to their interest and study.

In Pakistan students face many problems in choosing their domain according to their interest.
They have poor knowledge about their specific field. For example, if a student does FSC (pre-
medical) he/she don’t know about any other domain except M.B.B.S. No one provide them such
kind of information. Even he/she face problems related institutes that which institutes are
offering programs related to his specific domain. “Choose your career wisely” is domain finding
website. Basically we are going to design this web site to overcome the problem of students to
selecting their domain. After intermediate most of students don’t know what will they do. They
don’t know which domain is related to their education.
“Choose your career wisely” solve the problem of student of finding their domain. Student visit
this web site and put their cv. Make your carrier check
His previous education record and recommend him that which field he/she should choose. All
information about domain is available in one platform. “Choose your career wisely” also provide
all information about universities.
“CHOOSE YOUR CAREER WISELY” is combination of two things website and Database.
We will design web application which is used by a user and connect to database for user data.
Our goal is to facilitate students with finding domain according to their interest and qualification
where they can easily find their domain. Also find all information about universities where they
can apply.

 Choose your Career Wisely

1.2 Statement of the Problem

We know students are not aware of opportunities, what different kinds of tasks they can perform
according to their interest and related domain. They have no idea which fields are related to their
interest. They face a lot of problems in choosing their career after intermediate. We are going to
build an online “choose your career wisely” website to facilitate student with finding domain
according to their interest. Where they can easily find their domain .Students needs to upload
their CV and recommendations will be provided to them according to their interest.
They can also find all information about universities where they can apply.
“Choose your career wisely” website basically overcomes the problem of finding your domain
and checking every university site. You can easily check all information you need about your
domain.

1.3 Objectives

The main objectives of our project are following

 Provide facility of finding your domain.
 Provide all information about your domain.
 All information about top universities of Punjab (fee structure, study program etc).
 Recommendation based on students profile
 Students can create their profile and will upload their CV.
 Recommendations will be sending to their account.

1.4 Proposed Solution

This project is designed to help the students and youth for the guidance and assistant in their
career. CCW is a process that aims at helping the individual discover inner resources, develop
them, and use them to the best of his or her ability. It is a process through which youth are given
relevant information to help realize their education. As a caregiver, we will need to prepare our
children and youth for this reality. The system establishes an automated process similar to a one-
to-one interact with counselor’s and aids to ‘plan’ a career true to the student’s marks, and
different types of interests. Students can later determine a career from the proposed options.

3
 Choose your Career Wisely

Figure 1.1: About career counselling

1.5 Motivation

Students, after passing their inter examination; face too much confusion about the selection of
their further studies. They don’t know which study area is best for them. Most of the students
don’t even know different fields of studies other than engineering and medical due to lack of
study and career counseling. They get admission to these programs and then don’t get good
marks. That’s when they can’t get admission to medical or engineering colleges, and become
upset thinking about their career [1].
“Choose your carrier wisely” is helpful for student to find their domain. It is time saver
application. It will recommend you that which field you should choose based on your interest
and subjects. Information about every domain and university is available in one website. You
don’t want to visit universities pages and universities for information. You just upload your C.V
information about your domain and university will be provided to you.

1.6 Scope of Proposed Solution

According to our survey which we have done to check the feasibility of this project, the modules
that are selected to be implemented in this web application (choose your career wisely) are the
modules that are found as a prior need of student. This application can fulfill the requirements of
every type of students. Using this system we are creating awareness in the youth choose career
path.

 CHAPTER # 2
REQUIREMENT ANALYSIS
 Choose your Career Wisely

2 REQUIREMENT ANALYSIS

In this chapter requirements analysis is discussed. For developing any project, the major problem
is requirement gathering. Asking questions from clients is straight forward than collecting
requirements. We will also focus on functional and non-functional requirements.

The procedure for gathering requirements has its own defined procedure according to the
complexity of the application. To define project schedule and processing, different models and
techniques also focused on this chapter.

Requirements Gathering Techniques

A requirement can be defined as a condition or capability that must be processed by a product or
an application. Techniques that can be used for collecting requirements are as follows:

 By questionnaire and survey

 By interview
 By observations
 Using software tools
 Using techniques for decision making
 Focus on facilitated groups and workshops
 Use of prototype

The techniques we have used to collect requirements are observations and interviews.

2.1 Requirement Analysis

Requirements analysis is the process of planning, forecasting and studying the overall former
needs of the application requirements. Requirements analysis is further divided into two parts:

1. Functional Requirements
2. Non-Functional Requirements

2.1.1 Functional Requirements

Functional requirements are the requirements that should be provided by an application. It is

defined as a service statement. Functional requirements tell how an application should behave in

8
 Choose your Career Wisely

different situations and how it will react to a particular input. Functional requirements of the
CCW are as follows: The main functions of our project are following

 Provide facility of finding your domain.

 Makes easy to find domain related to student interest.
 Students can comment to ask some question.
 All information about top universities of Punjab (fee structure, study program etc).
 Students can create their profile and will upload their CV.
 Recommendation based on students profile
 Recommendations will be sending to their account.
 Students received POPUP notifications.
 Student can subscribe their Email.
 Notifications will be provided them through email.

2.1.2 Non-Functional Requirements

Non-functional requirements are the constraints or checks on the services and functions
provided by an application such as constraints on the development standards/process and
constraints of time etc.

 Non-Functional requirements of CCW are as follows:

 Application shall provide better response and performance. It shall take initial load time
depending on internet connection strength.
 Application must be efficient.
 Application must be user interactive.
 Application must be secure by using different standard authentication.

2.2 Application Quality Attribute

2.2.1 Availability

 Application must be responsive and available at every time.

 Availability of high speed internet connection is the major requirement of the application.

9
 Choose your Career Wisely

2.2.2 Maintainability

Making changes or upgradeability in the site will not be that much difficult. By having some
knowledge of programming, some features of the application might be converted to a new
version.

2.2.3 Consistency

When an administrator is updating information consistency must hold there.

2.2.4 Portability

CCW is web application that is why there is no problem in portability process.

2.2.5 Database Requirements

In this section, the database requirements for this application are mentioned:

We used MY SQL Server for database purpose.

2.3 Use Cases

An important part of the analysis phase is to drawing the diagrams of Use cases. They are used
through the phase of analysis of a project to find and divide functionality of the application.
Application is separated into actors and use cases.

Actors play the role that is played by the application users. Use cases define the application
behavior when one of the actors sends any particular motivation. This type of behavior can be
described by text. It describes the motivation nature that activates use case, the inputs and
outputs to some other actors and the behavior of conversion of inputs to the outputs. Usually the
use case describes everything that can go wrong during the detailed behavior and what will be
helpful action taken by the application.

Some of the use cases are as follows:

METHODODLOY AND
WORKPLAN
 Choose your Career Wisely

3 METHODOLOGY & WORKPLAN

In this chapter, we will discuss that what are the existing methodologies and which one we have
chosen for implementation of this project in an effective way, also we will discuss advantages of
adopted methodology.

What is methodology and why we need it?

Whenever a small or large project has started to develop, first thing all of programmers required
is methodology. Methodology is a way of developing a project, in which all of the programmers
gather the user’s requirements, design the project, implement it, and after all this testing and
maintenance of the project, in a satisfaction of user and according to the project requirements.

3.1 Adopted Methodology

Incremental model is used to develop this project, in which we divided our work in multiple
modules. All these modules are further divided into more easily managed modules which made
up the actual implementation of the requirements.

Reason behind using this model is:

 It is easy to test and debug the product during iterations.

 Software released in increments over time is more likely to satisfy changing user
requirements than if it were planned as a single overall release at the end of the same
period.

 Generates working software quickly and early during the software life cycle.
 This model is more flexible – less costly to change scope and requirements.
 It is easier to test and debug during a smaller iteration.
 In this model customer can respond to each built.
 Lowers initial delivery cost.
 Easier to manage risk because risky pieces are identified and handled during it’d
iteration.

3.2 Roles & Responsibilities

Project development team is consisting of two members. In order to accomplish a goal,

documentation and development is equally distributed among them and each member work on
parallel to avoid wastage of time.

4 SYSTEM ANALYSIS & DESIGN

In this chapter requirements analysis, feasibility study, planning, forecasting, modeling,
scheduling and design of the project is discussed. For developing any project, the major problem
is requirement gathering. Asking questions from clients is straightforward than collecting
requirements. We will also focus on functional and non-functional requirements.

The procedure for gathering requirements has its own defined procedure according to the
complexity of the application. To define project schedule and processing, different models and
techniques also focused on this chapter.

4.1 Activity Diagram

Activity diagrams are graphical representations of workflows of stepwise activities and actions
[1]
with support for choice, iteration and concurrency. In the Unified Modeling Language, activity
diagrams are intended to model both computational and organizational processes (i.e.,
workflows), as well as the data flows intersecting with the related activities [4].

4.1.1 Log in (user)

Figure 4.1: Activity diagram (login)

4.2 Sequence Diagrams

Sequence diagram uses concept of a Message-Sequence-Chart. It shows interactions of objects in

a sequence of time. It shows the classes and objects involved in the scenario and the message
sequence between the objects which is desired to carry out the functionality of a given scenario.
Sequence diagrams are usually related with the understanding of use case in the logical View of
the system which is under development. “Sequence diagrams are sometimes called event
diagrams, timing diagrams, event scenarios”.

A parallel vertical line on sequence diagram is called lifeline. Different objects or processes that
live simultaneously, and, on horizontal arrows, the messages exchanged, in the order in which
processes occur. This allows some specification of some simple runtime scenarios in a graphical
pattern.

4.3 Data flow diagram

A data flow diagram (DFD) is a graphical representation of the "flow" of data through
an information system, modeling its process aspects. A DFD is often used as a preliminary step
to create an overview of the system without going into great detail, which can later be elaborated.
DFDs can also be used for the visualization of data processing [5].

4.4 Class Diagram

The class diagram is the main building block of object direct modeling. It is used both for
general conceptual modeling of the systematic of an application, and for detailed modeling
translating the models into programming. Class diagrams can also be used for data modeling.

The classes in a class diagram represent both the main objects and or interactions in the
application and the objects. In the class diagram these classes are represented with boxes which

6 SYSTEM TESTING
In this chapter, we will discuss the testing phase of developed application “Choose your Career
Wisely” in different manner to know that how much efficient and effective application is?

6.1 Introduction

A process of performing as application or program with the intention of finding errors and
whether the application is fulfilling user needs. It can also be defined as the ability of a program
in meeting the required or desired results.

In many methodologies of software engineering, a separate phase is called phase of testing which
is performed after the completion of the implementation. There is a benefit in using this approach
that it is hard to see one's own mistakes, and a fresh eye can find observable errors much faster
than the person who has read the material many times.

6.2 Testing Plan

A process of performing as application or program with the intention of finding errors and
whether the application is fulfilling user needs.

6.2.1 Unit Testing

The software units in an application are modules and routines that are assembled and
integrated to perform a specific function. Unit testing focuses first on modules, independently of
one another, to locate errors. This enables, to detect errors in coding and logic that are contained
within each module. This testing includes entering data and ascertaining if the value matches to
the type and size supported by php. The various controls are tested to ensure that each performs
its action as required.

Commonly used method is White-Box Testing method. Every time a component of the program
is changed, it can be run for testing that is the biggest and famous benefit of this testing phase.
Issues that are arise during this phase, allowing to be resolved as quickly as possible. Unit testing
is familiar by software developers. It allows them to test their application units before move them
to testers for formal testing.

6.2.2 System Testing

To test the complete application as a whole, system testing has been used. It is beneficial to
check whether the application meets its requirements and fulfill Quality Standards.

6.2.3 Integration Testing

Integration testing allows the software developers to integrate all of the components/ units of the
application within a program and then test them in a group. Basically, this testing level is used to
catch the defects in the user interface between the functions/ modules. It is useful to determine
how logically and efficiently all the units/ components are running together.

Here the streaming module and encoding module options are integrated and tested. This testing
provides the assurance that the application is well integrated functional unit with smooth
transition of data.

6.2.4 User Acceptance Testing

User acceptance of an application is the key factor for the success of any application. The
application under consideration is tested for user acceptance by constantly keeping in touch with
the application users at time of developing and making changes whenever required.

6.3 Test Cases
