Problem definition:
Online Examination is very helpful to users. The aim of this project is to provide quick,
immediate and easy way to appear the exam. It can provide special advantages to the
students/applicants. The online examination system can automatically add the marks allocated in
each question to determine the total mark for the questions

Online Examination System is very useful for Educational Institute to prepare an exam, save the
time that will take to check the paper and prepare mark sheets. It will help the Institute to test
students and develop their skills.

Objective:
The general objective of my system is to change the current manual system into
computerized zone.

Purpose:
The students or members willing to test or share their knowledge among others. The
eExamination System is made to permit them to take and give online examination and
maintaining master information about the members and generating various reports of
test.

Brief Introduction to design:

The eExamination System will allow the users to take and give online
examination. It maintains the information about its users and also generates various
reports of test that are taken and given by the members.. The main users of the project
are Student or Member and system Administrator. From an end-user perspective, the
eExamination System Project consists of two functional elements: enhanced Member
modules(user) for registration, giving examination, manage profile. And
Administration module for Mange members, examination, question bank and view the
reports.

Existing Systems:
The traditional way of taking examination is that all the students have to be gathered at
one place physically. The examiner is restricted to be present, while students are giving
the examination. Results of students are stored on papers. Examiner have to take care of
that paper. If a paper is required to recheck then you have to search that paper through
bundles of paper which is very inefficient, costly and time consuming way of taking
and maintaining the examination system.

There are existing systems of examination let the users to give the examination on the
internet too. In those systems the members are only allowed to give the exam and view
their results. In this system users can also set exams and add questions to their exams
that exam will be available to all. It is taken care that user/member can only make
changes to the exams set by him. He has no access to the other exams not set by him.
The only one Administrator can set, view and update all the exams and all the users.

Requirement Analysis

User Requirements Analysis:
This project is a web application that is developed in PHP having MYSQL as back end. For the
development of this web application we are required to store the information about

Users, users are further divided into three categories

1- The users who can give exams only

2- The users who can give and takes examination. These users can manage their exams like
adding exam and adding questions to it. It is taken care that users can only access to those
exams added by him for the update purpose.
3- Sophisticated user who can manage all the exams add by any naïve users or by himself

Moreover, there is users/Members ‘s setting, from here the admin can change the settings of
different users. User can also Edit his profile to change the password or its name.

Examination of different subject is stored in this table, once user is logged in, he can start the
exam if he is an end user or he can add examination and questions to it. Activities of all the users
is monitored b Administrator.

Question Bank is required to store the questions of different subject. This question ‘s table
stores the questions related to a particular subject.

Result To store the results of users we required a table results. This table stores and shows the
result of different users and also give information about the subject in which user has passed or
failed.

Once the user starts the examination then its marks are automatically calculated and added to the
result at the end of examination information about right answers and the percentage of user in
that particular subject is shown too.

Feedback To know whether my system is fulfilling the user requirements, feed back from the
users is also required. System facilitate the users to send their feedback.

Entity Relationship Diagram

Defining the Relations

 A user takes one or more subjects for examination and a subject is taken by one or many
users (Many to Many)
 A Subject has many Questions(one to many)
 A question has many options(one to many)
 User may sends one or many feedbacks(one to many optional)
 A User and Subject has one or many results.

Conclusions:
There are existing systems of examination let the users to give the examination on the
internet too. In those systems the members are only allowed to give the exam and view
their results. In this system users can also set exams and add questions to their exams
that exam will be available to all. It is taken care that user/member can only make
changes to the exams set by him. He has no access to the other exams not set by him.
The only one Administrator can set, view and update all the exams and all the users.

It can be safely concluded that the product is a highly efficient GUI based component. This
application is working properly and meeting to all user requirements. This component can be
easily plugged in many other systems.
