Software development

Software process may be termed as a set of activities that are required to develop a software system. Software process model is a representation of a process. It is used to present descriptions of processes form particular perspectives. The waterfall model it is a separate and distinct phase of specification and development. Phases involved are requirements analysis and definition, system and software design, implementation and unit testing, integration and system testing, operation and…

Smith and I had a productive software security concerns conversation with Vipul this past Thursday (6/1/17). One of the questions we asked him was if Ebix has some sort of ISO certification like ISO 9126 and found that they do not. Per Vipul, Ebix is CMMI level 5 compliant and explained that this accreditation has more rigorous requirements than ISO certification. Vipul will share a framework document that lists ten security/risk assessment tenets that Ebix follows to build secure web…

Agile working methods give the ability to be flexible in uncertain situations, which then brings a decisive competitive advantage. Agile is deeply rooted in software development. In 2001, an international community of seventeen developers formed twelve principles for agile work. The manifesto was written to uncover better ways of software development. There are four key principles the manifesto drives towards. The authors of the Agile Manifesto attach people particularly higher importance than…

Mathematics, Physics, and Logic. These interests make me very logical, precise, and thoughtful, which are useful skills in my line of work. I work in Software Development; therefore, I am obviously also interested in Computer Science. Being a female with these interests makes me relatively unique in my field. Currently, I am the only female on the entire development staff in my company. Sometimes, I view this as a challenge to my career success, because I have to work extremely hard for respect…

6 PERSONALITY ISSUES OF THE SOFTWARE TEAM Now let’s consider some of the issues that could arise in the team that developing software projects. I tried to describe most common problems that concern individuals and that can be resolved by implying described leadership styles. Part of the problems concerns more or less traditional issues as interpersonal relationships and personality characteristics. Though, I also observe relatively new issue that arose dramatically in the last 20 years with…

9. Architecting and Designing Software Process of design In terms of software engineering, design can be described as a process to overcome problems that can arise within the proposed system’s functional requirements and the constraints set to ensure quality. All these problems must then be solved whilst keeping in mind the 11 principles of software design. Underneath the overlying problem lies a set of sub-problems that exist within the proposed system design. It can be said that these…

Agile Methodology: Agile Development is one of the most commonly discussed methods in IT industry now a days, it is an alternative to traditional software development methodologies, it is a different way to manage IT development team and their projects . Principal Underlying Agile Method 1. Satisfaction of customer through early and continuous delivery 2. Welcome changes in requirements even in middle of development 3. Deliver working software frequently with a preference of shorter timescale…

The term Agile was popularized was popularized by the Manifesto for Agile Software Development. The principles and values outlined in this manifesto were derived from a broad range of software development processes and practices. The four central tenets of the Agile Manifesto are as follows:  Individuals and interactions over processes and tools  Working software over comprehensive documentation  Responding to change over following a plan  Collaborating with customers over contract…

integration between IT operations and software developers. DevOps environment consists of a team with cross-functional team members including QA, developers, business analysts, DBAs, operations engineers and so on. Incorporating DevOps helps companies get done more, and deploy code more frequently. Businesses these days are facing some common problems. After application delivery, businesses are sceptical to change. The reason usually is the vulnerable and brittle software, and the platform…

growing requirement in software development. This framework is a kind of software which can automate the pre-generated test cases. So, for developing test automation software an incremental and timeframe iterative approach known as Agile Software Development Methodology can be used. It provides software developers a working test framework early with respect to traditional software development methods e.g. waterfall model. In this paper, an approach of developing test automation software with…
