SDLC - Software Development Life Cycle
and Waterfall Model :
The SDLC aims to produce a high quality software that meets or exceeds customer expectations, reaches completion within times and cost estimates.
SDLC - Software Development Life Cycle
and Waterfall Model :
The SDLC aims to produce a high quality software that meets or exceeds customer expectations, reaches completion within times and cost estimates.
The software development life cycle (SDLC) is a framework defining tasks performed at each step in the software development process. SDLC is a structure followed by a development team within the software organization. It consists of a detailed plan describing how to develop, maintain and replace specific software.
Waterfall Model PPT in Software EngineeringRaju Sheoran
What is Waterfall Model? History of waterfall model, Advantages, Disadvantages and much more realted to waterfall model.
The waterfall model is the basic and simple software development life cycle model. But idealistic. Earlier the waterfall model was very popular but these days it is not used while software development. And the model was divided into phases and all the phases are organized in linear order. This model was first introduced by Dr. Winston in 1970.
This model is very popular and very important because all the models in software development life cycle models are based on it. So, we can call it, It is the base of all software development life cycle models or it is known as Classical Waterfall Model.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

– Create a new Android project with package name
com.gsuandroid.activities
– Create a new Activity called MainActivity
– Create a layout for MainActivity which will consist
of a LinearLayout containing a TextView with
predefined text “Hello Android”
– Run your application
45. Demo
• Phase 2:
– Create another activity called ActTwo
– Create a layout for your new activity containing a TextView
without setting a text in XML
– Modify your MainActivity’s layout xml in and add a Button with
setting and id, android:id="@+id/btn_go_to_act_two » and text
« Go to Next Activity»
– Start ActTwo when user presses button inserted in the
MainActivity
– Run your application
46. Demo
