 1.INTRODUCTION

1.1 Motivation:
The main motivation behind the idea of developing STUDENT POINT is to help the
students regarding aptitude,interview,programming,videos,etc. There are websites which
provide information about aptitude and programming languages saperately, but there is no
specific website which provides altogether in a single website. So, we came up with this idea
of developing a website which provides the information about aptitude, and technical
questions,interview questions,books,etc.
1.2 Problem Definition:
There exists no website which provides notes within the college environment. There
exists a system in our college where notes are made available to the student Ecap portal which
is not well structured and it does not provide updated content.
In addition to these nowadays user experience is what matters. Mobility and
Flexibility are the two key factors. Most of the students spend much time on internet referring
various websites and learning new technologies, and this website is specially made for our
college where faculty can upload the notes rather than mailing every individual.
1.3 Objectives of the project:
This project helps in making the task easier by providing different kinds of notes, and
E-books at one place and save time of students in referring Internet during exams. We also
provide programming tricks,interview question,Aptitude ,referrence books regarding latest
technology like AI,data science,AWS ,.e.t.c. in one platform.
1.4 Limitations of the Project:
 Security limitations.
 Limited size of Data Base.

 2.LITERATURE SURVEY

2.1 Introduction:
This section gives detailed explanation about the existing system, disadvantages of
the existing system and the new proposed system and will differentiate the existing system
with the current system in the field of how beneficial it will be comparing to the current
existing systems.
2.2Existing System:
The World Wide Web E-Learning Provides a simple means of exploring the
immense volume of pages of information residing on internet. Information on web is
presented on Web pages, which appear as a collection of text, graphics, and pictures.
2.3Disadvantages of existing system:
The major problem people face in the existing system is it does not provide
authentication to access the data.
 No database security is provided.
 It is not time efficient approach.

2.4Proposed System:
Proposed system is developed using in such a way that much of the web success is
due to the simplicity with which it allows users to refer the information. A digital library that
provides all learning materials for the students. This website contains information about
aptitude, workshops and technical events. Our proposed system has the following advantages:
 User friendly interface.
 Fast access to data.
 Less error.
 Look and feel environment.
2.5 Conclusion:
This project is designed for the purpose to reduce time and also to reduce the burden
of users to access multiple websites. As the comparison with the existing system, the new
system is like everything at one place. As per the new system it is very easy access to the
notes and syllabus and offline access provided in our application will allow the user to access
the notes anywhere irrespective of Internet issues and location.

 3.ANALYSIS

3.1 Introduction:
This section is to analyze the problem and understand its context. The first activity in
the phase is studying the existing system and other is to understand the requirements and
domain of the new system. Both the activities are equally important, but the first activity
serves as a basis of giving the functional specifications and then successful design of the
proposed system. Understanding the properties and requirements of a new system is more
difficult and requires creative thinking and understanding of existing running system is also
difficult, improper understanding of present system can lead diversion from solution.

3.2 Software Requirement Specifications:

3.2.1 User Requirements:
Functional Requirements:
 These are the requirements given to the system during Requirements Phase of
the Software Development.
 The user should be able to choose from a variety of departments available in
the application.
 The user should be able to view all the department blocks simultaneously.
 The system should minimize the overall time spent by the user in searching and
downloading different applications.
 The user should be able to view the application in the desired layout.
3.2.1 Software Requirements:
 Operating System- Windows 7 and above.
 Programming Languages-HTML,CSS,PHP,Bootstrap and JS.
 Database – MySQL.
3.2.2 Hardware requirements:
 Flexible internet facility.
 RAM(Minimum of 2gb).

 4.DESIGN

4.1 Introduction
Design engineering deals with the various Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a
standard language for writing software blue prints. The UML is a language for
 Visualizing
 Specifying
 Constructing
 Documenting the artifacts of a software intensive system.

The UML is a language which provides vocabulary and the rules for combining
words in that vocabulary for the purpose of communication. A modeling language is a
language whose vocabulary and the rules focus on the conceptual and physical representation
of a system. Modeling yields an understanding of a system.
4.1.1 Building Blocks of the UML:
The vocabulary of the UML encompasses three kinds of building blocks:
 Things
 Relationships
 Diagrams
Things are the abstractions that are first-class citizens in a model relationships tie
these things together; diagrams group interesting collections of things.
4.1.2 Things in the UML:
There are four kinds of things in the UML:
 Structural things
 Behavioral things
 Grouping things
 Annotational things
Structural things are the nouns of UML models. The structural things used in the
project design are:
First, a class is a description of a set of objects that share the same attributes,
operations, relationships and semantics.

5
 Window
Origin
Size
open()
close()
move()
display()

Fig: Classes
Second, a use case is a description of set of sequence of actions that a system
performs that yields an observable result of value to particular actor.

Fig: Use Cases

Third, a node is a physical element that exists at runtime and represents a
computational resource, generally having at least some memory and often processing
capability.

Fig: Nodes
Behavioral things are the dynamic parts of UML models. The behavioral thing used
is:
Interaction:
An interaction is a behavior that comprises a set of messages exchanged among a set
of objects within a particular context to accomplish a specific purpose. An interaction
involves a number of other elements, including messages, action sequences (the behavior
invoked by a message, and links (the connection between objects).

Messages

6
4.1.3 Relationships in the UML:
There are four kinds of relationships in the UML:
 Dependency
 Association
 Generalization
 Realization
A dependency is a semantic relationship between two things in which a change to
one thing may affect the semantics of the other thing (the dependent thing).

Dependencies

An association is a structural relationship that describes a set links, a link being a

connection among objects. Aggregation is a special kind of association, representing a
structural relationship between a whole and its parts.

Association

A generalization is a specialization/ generalization relationship in which objects of

the specialized element (the child) are substitutable for objects of the generalized element (the
parent).

Generalization

A realization is a semantic relationship between classifiers, where in one classifier

specifies a contract that another classifier guarantees to carry out.

Realization

7
4.2 UML Diagram:
UML uses elements and associates them in different ways to form diagrams that represent
static, or structural aspects of a system, and behavioral diagrams, which capture the dynamic
aspects of a systems. There are two main categories; structure diagrams and behavioral
diagrams.

Fig:4.2 UML diagram.

4.2.1 Use case Diagram:

Use case is a set of scenarios that describing an interaction between a user and a
system. The two main component of use case diagram are use cases and actors. They are
helpful in exposing requirements and planning the projects.
Use Case Diagram is the combination of use cases of a system, a use case shows a
single function of the system. By looking at the use case diagram the stake holder will know
what functionality the system have or will be included.
They will know exactly who will be interacting with system. And identify which
functionality is included. So, we have designed the following use case diagram for our project.

Fig 4.2.1:Use case Diagram.

4.2.2 Sequence Diagram:

A sequence diagram is an interaction diagram that shows how objects operate with
one another and in what order. It is a construct of a message sequence chart. A sequence
diagram shows object interactions arranged in time sequence.
Sequence Diagram for Sign up:

Sequence Diagram for Login:

Fig 4.2.2: Sequence Diagram for Login.

11
4.2.3 DATA FLOW DIAGRAM:
Data flow diagram (DFD) is graphical representation of the "flow" of data through an
information system. A DFD shows what kind of information will be input to and output from
the system, how the data will advance through the system, and where the data will be stored.
Our project needs a Data Flow diagram to show the flow of the data in the application. So, we
have designed a data flow diagram for our website.

Fig 4.2.3:Data flow Diagram.

12
4.3 Module Design and Organization
There are three modules in the system
1. Admin
2. User
Admin:
In this module, admin is the main authority of this site . so he has all privileges to
upload, delete files and update of any account.
In Admin page, he has certain links such as:
 Uploads files.(Books,other files).
 Updates.
 Advisory panel.
 Contact us.
User:
In this module the candidate can get registered providing their personal details and
get logged into their candidate home page, from where they can access the data provided by
admin.

 5.IMPLEMENTATION AND RESULTS

5.1 Introduction:
This project is developed using HTML,CSS,Bootstrap,Javascript as front end and
MySQLi,PHP as back end in Windows environment. The web applications used for this
project are PHP and MySQLi. This system provides optimized utilization of resources,
improved productivity, and efficient management of resources as it is completely
computerized and has centralized database maintenance.
5.2 Explanation of key Functions
5.2.1 Java Script:
 Giving the user more control over the browser.
 Detecting the user's browser and OS. The ability to detect the user's browser and
OS allows your script to perform platform-dependent operations, if necessary.
 Performing simple computations on the client side.
 Validating the user's input.
JavaScript helps the browser to perform input validation without wasting the user's
time by the Web server access. If the user makes a mistake in the input, the user will get an
error message immediately! On the other hand, if the input information is validated only on
the server, then the user would have to wait for the server response.
 Java Scripts are used as HTML tags alone will not be sufficient in developing an
application interactively.
 Alert (“string”): This message is known as confirmation message. By this we
can display an alert window.
 onsubmit() :It is invoked as soon as the user press the submit button on the web
page.

 6. TESTING AND VALIDATION

6.1 Introduction:
The purpose of testing is to discover errors. Testing is the process of trying to
discover every conceivable fault or weakness in a work product. It provides a way to check
the functionality of components, sub assembles, assembles and/or a finished product. It is the
process of exercising software with the intent of ensuring that the software system meets its
requirements and user expectations and does not fail in an unacceptable manner. There are
various types of test. Each test type addresses a specific testing requirement.
6.2 Design of test cases and scenarios:

6.4 Software Testing:

Once the source code has been generated, the software must be tested to uncover as
many errors as possible before delivery to the customer. Software testing is a critical element
of software quality assurance and represents the ultimate review of specification design and
code generation.
6.4.1 Testing Objectives:
 Testing is a process of executing a program with the intent of finding an error.
 A good test case is one that has a high probability of finding an error as yet
Undiscovered.

 A successful test is one that uncovers an as yet undiscovered error.

6.4.2 Testing Principles:

 All tests should be traceable to customer requirements.
 Tests should be planned large before testing begins.
 Testing should begin “In the Small” and progress towards “In the Large”.
The system can be tested in one of the following two ways:-
 White-Box Testing.
 Black-Box Testing.

19
6.4.3 White Box Testing:
This is performed knowing the internal workings of a product. Tests are conducted to
ensure that “all gears mesh”, that is, that internal operation performs according to
specification and all internal components have been adequately exercised. This can be done
on close examination of procedural detail. Providing test cases that exercise specific set of
conditions, and / or, loops, tests, logical paths, through the software.

Using the white-box testing we can derive test cases that,

 Guarantee that all independent paths within a module have been exercised at
least once.
 Exercise all logical decisions on their true and false sides.
 Execute all loops at their boundaries and within their operational bounds and
 Exercise internal data structures to assure their validity.
By the test cases each of the modules have executed at least once and tested for bugs.
All the logic decisions on their true and false sides are executed so that the system will
perform well.
6.4.4 Black Box Testing:
Knowing the specified function that a product has been designed to perform tests
can be conducted that demonstrates each function is fully operational, at the same time
searching for errors in each function. It enables us to derive sets of input conditions that will
fully exercise all function requirements for documents.
It attempts to find errors in the following categories:
 Incorrect or missing functions
 Interface errors
 Errors in data structures or external database access
 Performance errors
 Initialization and termination errors

6.4.5 Unit Testing:

It focuses verification effort on the smallest unit of system design i.e., – the module.
Using the procedural design description as a guide, important control paths are tested to
uncover errors within the boundary of the module.

20
6.4.6 Integration Testing:
It’s a systematic technique for construction of the program structure while
conducting to uncover errors associated with interfacing. The objective is to take unit tested
modules and build a program structure that has been dictated by design.
6.5 Validation Testing:
Validation succeeds when system functions in a manner that can be reasonably
expected by the end user. This is achieved through a series of black-box test that demonstrates
with requirements. There are two tests conducted for the system validation. They are as
follows:-
6.5.1 Alpha Testing:
A customer conducts it at the developer’s site. The software is used in a natural
setting with the developer “looking over the shoulder” of the user and recording errors and
usage problems.
6.5.2 Beta Testing:
This test is conducted at one or more users sited by the end user(s) of the software.
Here the developers generally not present. Therefore, the beta test is a “live “application of
the software in an environment that can’t be controlled by the developer.

21
