You Will Learn How To
- Analyse, design, program and test software projects
- Elicit requirements and write user stories, use cases and use case diagrams
- Draft mock-up user interfaces and program functional UI prototypes
- Program using basic language concepts and syntax
- Simplify complex systems using modern object-oriented analysis and design techniques
- Test user requirements and application logic with both manual and automated testing techniques
Course Benefits
Successful software development requires the collaborative effort of a diverse team with varied skills. To be most effective, team members need to understand the activities performed at each stage in the development cycle. In this course, you analyse, design, implement and test applications that meet user requirements through a simulated case study. You gain hands-on experience of each role within the software development team.
Who Should Attend
Business analysts, QA testers, programmers, software project managers and those who want an introduction to modern software development.
Through an evolving case study, you perform the typical roles and activities of software development team members. Team- and PC-based activities include:
- Eliciting requirements
- Writing user stories and use cases
- Sketching user interface mock-ups and creating UI protoypes
- Programming using a modern object-oriented language
- Modelling complex systems using UML class diagrams
- Implementing Model View Controller (MVC) design pattern
- Coding classes, inheritance and polymorphic behaviours
- Representing data relationships and entities
- Manipulating data with SQL
- Writing manual and automated tests
