QUESTIONS TO BE ANSWERED (all questions weighted equally)

Place your answers below each question below within this file

1. Why user interface wireframing is important for a good interface design?

Wireframes help the users to map the functions out of the associated pages. It helps them to
identify the problems, challenges and any issues at an early stage and thus the time is save for the

the later revision. It is very difficult to make changes in the wireframe so the security also increases
and it is moe efficient tht the fidelity mockups as it consumes more time than wireframes.

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

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

The Software Testing and the methods used in it can only detect the presence of errors
means the errors available in the code and program. The testing procedures and processes
can’t detect the absence of the errors because the main objective of the testing process is:
to analyze the nature of the specific software and to evaluate its performance that it meets
with the requirement of the users that are expected by them or not.

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.”

5. Which software design methodology you would adapt for following software systems and why?

a) Control and management system of a drone to monitor cattle farm

b) Metro Ticket Control

6. Using your knowledge of medical reception/appointment system, describe the process of booking
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.
