Abstract

The project “ONLINE COLLEGE MAGAZINE” assists the students in posting and reading
academic articles , Subjective notes. Using this online system , one can can enhance technicual as
well as subjective knowledge by reading articles . you can manage all your information from a single
database file. Within the file, divide your data into separate storage containers called tables; view,
add, and update table data using online forms; it includes forums, Post and comments and some
FAQs on the related topics, through which we can create networking with other existing users.
This website includes the whole profile of the GPT students, it also gives the relevant information or
notices about various events to the students of GPT. This website uses the Java platform for the
development of the project. It is made very user friendly and easy to use.

1. Introduction
1.1 Project definition: Online College Magazine
Online college Magazine is a forum where college students and faculties can post and read
various articles, thus promoting literary insight. Articles can be searched by anybody in the world.
The Program can also include feature of categorizing articles, one can give feedback, Rate the article,
one can Search article by category or topic as well. Topics get sorted by constraint of most viewed
and tags are attached to article by number of reads.
The project is an effort to build a professionally look /featured online forum, with an user friendly
Interface and lot of features to grab visitors and provide them lot at a place.
Creating and managing an Online College Magazine where college students and faculties can post
and read various articles, thus promoting literary insight. Articles can be searched by anybody in the
world.
When a project is started an initial investigation is carried out. During this phase of study users need
has recognized and other requirements are determined. Once the problem has been defined a study is
carried out to select the best system i.e. a feasible system that meets performance requirements. So
Feasibility is the determination of whether or not a project is worth doing and the process followed in
making this determination is called a Feasibility Study. In order to conduct the feasibility study we
have seven distinct, but inter-related types of feasibility, these are Technical feasibility, Operational
feasibility, Economical feasibility, Social feasibility, Management feasibility, Legal feasibility and
Time feasibility.

This is concerned with specifying equipment (hardware) and software that will successfully satisfy
the user requirement. It considers the following facts:

 The facility to produce outputs in a given time.

 Response time under certain conditions.

 Ability to process a certain volume of transaction at a particular speed.

 Facility to communicate data to distant location.

While examining technical feasibility, huge importance is given to the configuration of the proposed
system. The configuration should give the complete picture about the system’s requirement such that
what kind of hardware is required and how these units are interconnected so that they could operate
and communicate smoothly.
Configurations will be pursued that satisfies the key technical requirements but represent different
levels of ambition and cost.
Since cost plays quite an important role in deciding the new system, it must be identified and
estimated properly. So economic analysis is the most frequently used technique for evaluating the
effectiveness (economical feasibility) of a proposed system. To determine the economical feasibility
of the system a cost/benefit analysis is to make. This procedure is to determine the benefits and
savings that are expected from a proposed system and compare them with costs. Four facts that play
an important role in deciding economical feasibility of the proposed system are as follows:
 Cost-saving benefits
 Cost-avoidance benefits
 Improved-performance benefits
 Improved - information benefits.
Hence the proposed system is economically feasible.
It is mainly related to human organizational aspects. The points to be considered are:
 What changes will be brought with the system?
 What organizational structures are disturbed?
 What new skills will be required?
 Do the existing Employees members have these skills if not, can they be trained?

1.2 EXISTING SYSTEM:


The existing systems of Online College Magazine of various colleges provides lots of features but all
these Websites are public. Anyone can have an account on these. Such Websites are not secured for
updation of critical information about college. Due to this, a private Website for College has been
established. Only Administrator can post Article earlier but now student can also share ideas.

1.3 PROPOSED SYSTEM:


Online college Magazine website has various benefits with which we all are quite familiar.
The proposed system has been established for college students, faculty and guests. In this Website,
only the authorized users can login. Many features like all other Websites has been tried to be
implemented. The flexibility of this system will definitely help Students to communicate with each
other very easily.
14 Purpose:
Creating and managing an Online College Magazine where college students and faculties can
post and read various articles, thus promoting literary insight. Articles can be searched by anybody in
the world. Factors behind the motivation of this system are:
1. Not all students make it to the printed magazine.
2. Creativity of students needs to be nurtured.
Creating a user-friendly interactive place where students/faculties can share their ideas.

1.5 Scope:
 The Scope of the ONLINE COLLEGE MAGAZINE includes:
o User must have a valid User Id and password to login to the system.
 If a wrong password is given thrice in succession, that account will be locked and the
 customer will not be able to use it. When an invalid password is entered a warning is given
o to the user that his account is going to get locked.
 Search Engine for all the articles posted till date. Accessible by anybody.
 Essential steps to be taken to prevent authenticity infringement.
 Articles to be distributed in categories. Can overlap 2 or more categories. Articles to be
associated with suitable tags by the registered users at the time of posting, so that they are
searchable.
 The home page to consist of attractive essential features like: most read articles, editor’s pick,
recently posted articles, highest rated articles, article of the month, college news, etc.
 Archives to be maintained.
 Interactive feedback to be supported to enhance the user experience.
 Guests can read articles, rate them and comment on them. They can also access other optional
features (amenities like Word of the day, etc.) but can’t post articles unless they sign in as
registered users.
 Automatic commenting on articles by spammers/automatic bots to be defied.
 College Students/Faculties can only register as members (through unique IDs).
 Alumni registration to be supported.
 Registered members, Moderators and Administrators are allowed to post articles.
 Articles can be downloaded in various formats.
 Registered users, Moderators, and Admins will have their own profile, where they can edit
info for the world to see. Useful “updated” info related to their activities to be available at
their profiles.

How to Write Test Cases: Sample Template with Examples


What is a Test Case?
A Test Case is defined as a set of actions executed to verify a particular feature or
functionality of the software application. A test case is an indispensable component of the
Software Testing LifeCycle that helps validate the AUT (Application Under Test).
Test Scenario Vs Test Case
Test scenarios are rather vague and cover a wide range of possibilities. Testing is all about
being very specific.
For a Test Scenario: Check Login Functionality there many possible test cases are:
Test Case 1: Check results on entering valid User Id & Password
Test Case 2: Check results on entering Invalid User ID & Password
Test Case 3: Check response when a User ID is Empty & Login Button is pressed, and many
more
This is nothing but a Test Case

A Test Case is defined as a set of actions executed to verify a particular feature or
functionality of the software application. A test case is an indispensable component of the
Software Testing Life-Cycle that helps validate the AUT (Application Under Test).
Test Scenario Vs Test Case
Test scenarios are rather vague and cover a wide range of possibilities. Testing is all about
being very specific.
For a Test Scenario: Check Login Functionality there many possible test cases are:
Test Case 1: Check results on entering valid User Id & Password
Test Case 2: Check results on entering Invalid User ID & Password
Test Case 3: Check response when a User ID is Empty & Login Button is pressed.

Step 1) A simple test case for the scenario would be


Test Case # Test Case Description

1 Check response when valid email and password is entered

Step 2) In order to execute the test case, you would need Test Data. Adding it below
Test Test Case Description Test Data
Case #
1 Check response when valid email and Email: ####@email.com Password:
password is entered lNf9^Oti7^2h
Identifying test data can be time-consuming and may sometimes require creating test data
afresh. The reason it needs to be documented.

Step 3) In order to execute a test case, a tester needs to perform a specific set of actions on
the AUT. This is documented as below:
Test Test Case Description Test Steps Test Data
Case #
1 Check response when valid email and 1) Enter Email Email:####@email.com
password is entered Address Password:
2) Enter lNf9^Oti7^2h
Password
3) Click Sign in

Many times the Test Steps are not simple as above, hence they need documentation. Also, the
author of the test case may leave the organization or go on a vacation or is sick and off duty
or is very busy with other critical tasks. A recently hire may be asked to execute the test case.
Documented steps will help him and also facilitate reviews by other stakeholders.

Step 4) The goal of test cases is to check behavior the AUT for an expected result. This needs
to be documented as below
Test Test Case Description Test Data Expected Result
Case #

1 Check response when valid email Email: ####@email.co Login should be


and password is entered m successful
Password: lNf9^Oti7^2h
During test execution time, the tester will check expected results against actual results and
assign a pass or fail status

Step 5) That apart your test case -may have a field like, Pre - Condition which specifies
things that must in place before the test can run. For our test case, a pre-condition would be to
have a browser installed to have access to the site under test. A test case may also include
Post - Conditions which specifies anything that applies after the test case completes. For our
test case, a postcondition would be time & date of login is stored in the database

6. Conclution

An online magazine stocks some functions with a blog and also with internet magazines, but
can usually be recognized by its approach to article management. Publications normally have
publishers or article forums who review distribution and perform a function to ensure that all
material satisfies the objectives of the marketers (those investing time or money in its
production) and the audience. The College Magazine where college students and faculties can
post and read various articles, thus promoting. Articles can be searched by anybody in the
world. Factors behind the motivation of this system. In this all students not make it to the
printed magazine. Creativity of student needs to be nurtured and creating a user-friendly
interactive place where students/faculties can share their ideas.
