Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) for the Online Book

Store (OBS) Project

The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is a systematic approach to


software development that ensures quality and efficiency in building
software applications. Below is an SDLC tailored for the Online Book Store
(OBS) project, broken down into phases.

1. Requirement Gathering and Analysis

Objective: Understand and document the functional and non-functional


requirements for the OBS.

Activities:

 Meet with stakeholders (e.g., business owners, vendors, customers)


to gather requirements.

 Identify core system functionalities:

o User Management: Registration, login, profile management,


purchase history.

o Inventory Management: Book catalog management, stock


tracking, book details updating.

o Order Management: Order processing, payment integration,


and shipping tracking.

o Analytics: Sales tracking, user behavior, vendor performance


reports.

 Define user roles and permissions (Customers, Vendors, Admin).

 Identify system performance, security, and scalability needs.

 Document requirements and get approval from stakeholders.

Deliverables:

 Requirements Specification Document

 Use Cases for User Stories

 System Architecture Diagrams

2. System Design

Objective: Design the architecture and components of the system based


on the gathered requirements.
Activities:

 High-Level Design (HLD):

o Design the overall system architecture (client-server model,


APIs, database schema).

o Choose technologies (Django for backend, MySQL for


database, Python for core logic).

o Design the user interfaces (UI/UX) for customers, vendors, and


admins.

o Design the database schema to store user data, orders,


products, and other entities.

 Low-Level Design (LLD):

o Break down system components and interactions.

o Design data flow diagrams and sequence diagrams for key


workflows (e.g., browsing books, making a purchase, order
tracking).

o Detail the functionality of each module (User Management,


Inventory Management, etc.).

 Security Design:

o Define encryption methods for data (payment processing,


passwords).

o Design role-based access control for system users.

Deliverables:

 High-Level and Low-Level Design Documents

 Database Design (ERD)

 UI/UX Design Mockups

 Security and Privacy Plan

3. Implementation (Coding)

Objective: Develop the system according to the design specifications.

Activities:

 Backend Development:
o Set up the Django framework and integrate the database
(MySQL).

o Implement user management (registration, login, profile


management).

o Develop the inventory management system


(add/update/remove books).

o Implement order processing and payment gateway integration


(e.g., Stripe or PayPal).

o Develop real-time analytics and reporting features for admins.

o Ensure proper security features, including encryption for


sensitive data (e.g., payment information).

 Frontend Development:

o Design and develop responsive web pages using HTML, CSS,


and Bootstrap.

o Implement dynamic search, filtering, and sorting options for


users.

o Create personalized recommendation features based on user


history.

o Integrate frontend with backend using JavaScript for smooth


interactions.

 Testing Integration: Perform unit testing on individual modules


and integrate them into the main system.

Deliverables:

 Developed Codebase (Backend & Frontend)

 User Interface Components

 Integration with Payment Gateways

 Unit Test Results

4. Testing

Objective: Ensure the system works as intended by thoroughly testing all


aspects of the application.

Activities:
 Unit Testing: Test individual components or units of the system for
correctness.

 Integration Testing: Test how different modules and components


work together (e.g., user registration, order processing).

 System Testing: Perform end-to-end testing of the entire


application, simulating real-world usage scenarios (e.g., browsing
books, purchasing).

 Performance Testing: Evaluate the system's performance under


normal and peak usage conditions (e.g., large catalog size, high
user traffic).

 Security Testing: Test for security vulnerabilities (e.g., SQL


injection, XSS, CSRF, encryption strength).

 User Acceptance Testing (UAT): Get feedback from a small group


of users (e.g., real customers) to validate usability and functionality.

Deliverables:

 Test Cases and Test Results

 Bug Reports and Fixes

 UAT Feedback and Enhancements

5. Deployment

Objective: Deploy the system to the production environment and make it


accessible to users.

Activities:

 Set up production servers (e.g., AWS, Heroku, or other cloud


platforms).

 Configure the database in the production environment (ensure data


migration from development to production).

 Deploy the backend (Django application) and frontend (HTML, CSS,


JavaScript) to the server.

 Set up continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD)


pipelines for future updates.

 Perform smoke testing to ensure deployment was successful and the


system is stable.

 Monitor the system for initial user feedback and performance issues.
Deliverables:

 Live Production System

 Deployment Documentation

 Monitoring Plan for Post-Launch

6. Maintenance and Updates

Objective: Keep the system running smoothly and continue improving


based on user feedback.

Activities:

 Bug Fixes: Address any issues that arise post-deployment,


including security vulnerabilities.

 Performance Monitoring: Use monitoring tools to track system


performance, uptime, and user behavior.

 User Feedback: Collect and analyze feedback from users (both


customers and vendors) to identify areas for improvement.

 Feature Enhancements: Based on user feedback and business


needs, enhance the system with new features (e.g., better
recommendation engine, new payment methods).

 Regular Updates: Regularly update the system to ensure


compatibility with new technologies, improve security, and optimize
performance.
