User interface wireframing is significant  as it will allows us to mapping out


functionalities of all pages, to catch out difficulties earlier, and to save time for

revisioning later on. It is less sore to perform changes to an wireframing than to a
highly faithful mockup with various designing elements. As an high faithful mock up
needs more time to perfomed changes and to rework on them. Wireframing is
an significant  tool used for communication in any web or application project. It will
offer an opportunity to clients, developers, and designers to walk by structure of an
website deprived of getting unfocussed by designing elements like colors and pictures

2. Differentiate between design patterns and COTS, how design patterns facilitate to achieve
reusability in software design?

Design is an more detailed form than architecture. Architecture depicts an abstract view of


entire system, on the other hand Design depicts implementation of few definite concerned
domains.  An architecture will tells about components and its related interactions , while
tell about how every component get build on.
Patterns arrest static and dynamic features of positive solutions of problems that
usually arises when there is development of a software systems.
In, Incorporation of designing patterns together with frameworks, Patterns can be
observed as intellectual descriptions of frameworks that will
facilitates extensive re-use of software architectures.

3. Explain whether software testing detects ‘the presence of errors’ or ‘the absence of errors’, and
why?

4. Discover ambiguities or omissions in the following statement of requirements for part of a ticket
issuing system:

“An automated ticket-issuing system sells rail tickets. Users select their destination and input a credit
card and a personal identification number. The rail ticket is issued, and their credit card account
charged. When the user presses the start button, a menu display of potential destinations is
activated, along with a message to the user to select a destination. Once a destination has been
selected, users are requested to input their credit card. Its validity is checked, and the user is then
requested to input a personal identifier. When the credit transaction has been validated, the ticket is
issued.”

and cancelling appoints. How you will translate the process into a design?

7. Why is it difficult to gain a clear understanding of what the customer needs? Explain in your words
how software specification helps to smooth the process of identifying customer requirements with
examples.

8. Consider a scenario where emergency or sudden changes are incorporated to software systems
prior to their approval in the requirements. Suggest and explain which model of a process could be
followed to ensure that the requirements and the system implementation phases avoid
inconsistency.

9. When both the availability and security are critical non-functional requirements, could a design
conflict arise whilst designing architecture? Explain a scenario to justify your answer.

10. You have decided to form a Software Quality Assurance (SQA) Group to deal with the current
situation of the banking system of NAB bank in Australia. Briefly discuss the role of SQA Group to
improve the situation of NAB bank in Australia.
