Introduction
This document addresses the requirements for automated system of bus-ticket vending machine for Bangladesh Road Transport Corporation (BRTC). The intended audience for this document is the designers and the BRTCs of the project. It is the controlling document for this project. It specifies the technical and managerial approaches to develop the software product. As such it is the companion document to Requirements Analysis Document (RAD). Changes in either may imply changes in the other document. All technical and managerial activities required to turn over the deliverables to the BRTC are included. This includes scheduling, identification of tasks, and factors that may impact the project and planning

Process Model
Software Model
Rapid Application Development (RAD) is a software development methodology that focuses on building applications in a very short amount of time; traditionally with compromises in usability, features and/or execution speed. The term has recently become a marketing buzzword that generically describes applications that can be designed and developed within 60 - 90 days, but it was originally intended to describe a process of development that involves application prototyping and iterative development.

Because of this
To prevent cost overruns (RAD needs a team already disciplined in cost management) To prevent runaway schedules (RAD needs a team already disciplined in time management) To converge early toward a design acceptable to the customer and feasible for the developers To limit a project's exposure to the forces of change To save development time, possibly at the expense of economy or product quality In certain situations, a usable 80% solution can be produced in 20% of the time that would have been required to produce a total solution. In certain situations, the business requirements for a system can be fully satisfied even if some of its operational requirements are not satisfied. The acceptability of a system can be assessed against the agreed minimum useful set of requirements rather than all requirements. 2012

Software Life Cycle Flow Chart

Quality Gates for Each Phase of SW Development


Increased quality is a primary focus of the Rapid Application Development methodology, but the term has a different meaning than is traditionally associated with Custom Application Development. Prior to RAD, and perhaps more intuitively, quality in development was both the degree to which an application conforms to specifications and a lack of defects once the application is delivered. According to RAD, quality is defined as both the degree to which a delivered application meets the needs of users as well as the degree to which a delivered system has low maintenance costs. Rapid Application Development attempts to deliver on quality through the heavy involving of users in the analysis and particularly the design stages. Quality Metric Open defects vs. closed defects over time Trigger Rate of increase of open defects >0.5*rate of increase of closed defects over the past 2weeks N/A <10% >10% of defined norm for implementation phase, as follows: Coding: 15 Complication: 6 Black-box test: 7 Integration: 3

Monitoring & Controlling Mechanism


Define the reporting mechanisms, report formats, review and audit mechanisms, and other tools and techniques to be used in monitoring and controlling adherence to the SPMP. Project monitoring should occur at the level of work packages. Include monitoring and controlling mechanisms for the project support functions (quality assurance, configuration management, documentation and training). A table may be used to show the reporting and communication plan for the project. The communication table can show the regular reports and communication expected of the project, such as weekly status reports, regular reviews, or as-needed communication. The exact types of communication vary between groups, but it is useful to identify the planned means at the start of the project.

Risk Management
This section mentions a number of possible risks for the project. Also, actions or measures are described to prevent or to reduce the risks. Four categories of risks are identified: Risks with respect to the work to be done. Risks with respect to the management. Risks with respect to the resources. Risks with respect to the customer. The risks for each category are listed below. For each risk, a description, a probability to occur, the action associated and the impact of the risk are given. It is obvious that problems will occur during the project. To avoid problems the following rules should be followed by all team members: Try to signal problems as early as possible and report them to the PM, so that action can be taken. Pay attention to communication and make sure everybody understands the things the same way. 2012

Schedule Tracking Process


Every week, the work done by the members needs to be administrated. Each team member has to fill in their hours on a web based log. This log needs to be filled in every Monday before 12:00. A week stats at Sunday and ends at Tuesday. The PM sends an e-mail to the SM every week, containing the hours spends on the different work package and the hours spend on followings categories: Non project relate, General project related, Documentation, specification, design, Source code, testing, verification, consolidation and rework. Further, for every work-package, an estimation of remaining hours is added.

Team leader meetings


Whenever the Project Manger (PM) or QAM finds it necessary he can arrange a team meeting. Team leader meetings are rather informal and infrequent and the task required for one the purpose of the meeting. Reporting and Information Flow Matrix:

Defect Tracking Process


This document is details the process the bug or defect follows. It also details the way in which a bug/defect is entered in to the bug tracking database. Lifecycle of Defect: Open Defect/Bug using bug template and bug tracking software Assigned to developer or person responsible for fix Developer reviews Bug Developer acknowledges bug or declines bug for various reasons If developer acknowledges bug, then a fix in progress is in Developer fixes bug and assigns it back to person who opened it QA confirms fix is completed in proper build QA closes bug If developer declines bug, then developer assigns bug back to person who opened it with reason of decline QA either acknowledges reason for close or can re-open bug with more details or proof Developer can give reasons of: not a bug, by design, not reproducible, duplicate bug

Priority Level Description A defect occurred due to the inability of a key function to perform. This problem causes the system hang it halts (crash), or the user is dropped out of the system. An immediate fix or work around is needed from development so that testing can continue. A defect occurred which severely restricts the system such as the inability to use a major function of the system. There is no acceptable work-around but the problem does not inhibit the testing of other functions A defect is occurred which places minor restrict on a function that is not critical. There is an acceptable work-around for the defect. An incident occurred which places no restrictions on any function of the system. No immediate impact to testing. A Design issue or Requirements not definitively detailed in project. The fix dates are subject to negotiation. Response Time or Turn around Time Defect should be responded to within 24 hours and the situation should be resolved test exit

High

Medium

A response or action plan should be provided within 3 working days and the situation should be resolved before test exit. A response or action plan should be provided within 5 working days and the situation should be resolved before test exit. An action plan should be provided for next release or future enhancement

Postmortem
The overall project plan follows the model, a modified RAD model. 3 prototypes have to be delivered: A graphical user interface, a functional prototype and a system integration prototype. Analysis is started before Project Planning is finished. System Design is followed by Object Design. Important Milestones are the Analysis Review September 22 to September 26, the Project Status on September 26, the Project Review on October 4 and the Object Design Review on October 24. Implementation and Unit Testing are scheduled to overlap significantly. System Integration is scheduled to immediately follow Unit Testing. System Testing starts immediately after system integration and leads to the BRTC Acceptance Test on December 8, 2012.
