1. Introduction
1.1 Purpose
This document’s purpose is to document the set of requirements for the development of a software
management system for a bed and breakfast operation. It describes how reservations and financial
transactions are made. It also specifies the human to computer graphical user interface screens.
1.2 Scope
This Bed and Breakfast Management System enables a the automated operation of a 3 bedroom bed and
breakfast business. Customers can call the Bed and Breakfast reservation phone number and give desired
reservation dates. A staff member can check the available and give the daily price rate for each room. The
customer can provide a reservation guarantee date. The guest reservation information will be entered by
the staff member while the customer is on the phone. After the stay, there is a check out process.
Additionally the owner can generate a profit report to monitor the financial status of the operation.
1.3 Definitions
a. BBMS – Bed and Breakfast Management System
b. Reservation – A room assigned to a guest stay for a specific date range
c. Guarantee – Financial contract between the management of the bed and breakfast and a guest that
a room reservation will be available to the guest
d. Workflow – Sequential steps needed to accomplish a task
e. Domain Object – A computer entity that holds information for a given function
f. User interface – A computer graphical element that enables the user to interact with the software

Read the following case study and thoroughly and completely answer the questions that follow. Remember to use full sentences and cite sources to support any contentions that you make, using proper APA formatting.
CASE STUDY:
Mary is a 36-year-old stay-at-home mother of four children. She is starting to become a bit bored with staying home, having done that for the past 15 years. Prior to having children, Mary worked in a credit union and enjoyed her job. She especially liked the precision of number crunching. She has carried this characteristic into her housekeeping chores. She tries to keep her home spotless, even with four children. She cleans the two bathrooms every day, vacuums, dusts, picks up toys, and performs various and sundry cleaning chores. Clutter and messiness bother her, and she is almost neurotic about cleaning. She is a perfectionist and knows it. All of her friends agree, but she is able to laugh at this quirk and not take herself too seriously.
Although maintaining a house with four children might seem overwhelming to others, Mary handles these chores fine and has time (sometimes while cleaning) to keep in close touch with her friends, especially with phone calls. Mary is continuously on the phone. Her friends are a very important part of her social support network, especially since she does not have coworkers with whom to interact and because her husband travels a lot for his job. Often, her friends seem more important to her than her spouse and she seems to have a better relationship with them than her husband. They describe her as being fiercely loyal, supportive, and talkative. They also know that she has a good heart. She is always willing to help another mom whose babysitter got sick by watching their child while she goes to work. If a friend is feeling overwhelmed about preparing for an upcoming party, she is willing to cook or bake something for them. You would never know from looking at her that Mary is such a warm and caring person. She actually looks a bit intimidating and angry, but that is just because her age is starting to show with somewhat deep lines between her eyes, which is mistaken for a frown. She is aware of this contradiction and is a bit self-conscious of her frown lines.
Mary is also insecure about not having attended college. Many of her friends graduated from college. Some even have doctorate degrees, but Mary never did. She does not think of herself as unintelligent, but she sees herself as uneducated and defers to others with a better education. Her friends see her as very intelligent, and they encourage her to pursue at least an associate’s degree mainly so she will feel better about herself. Mary is considering this possibility. It is something that she has always wanted to do. In particular, she is thinking about getting an associate’s degree in legal business studies and becoming a legal assistant after all of her children are in middle school. They will be old.

Sociology in a Nutshell A Brief Introduction to the Discipl.docxjensgosney
Sociology in a Nutshell:
A Brief Introduction to the Discipline of Sociology
Alan Barton, Ph.D.
As an independent discipline, Sociology dates back to the end of the 19
th
century, although
Sociology has influences from various other disciplines, including Philosophy, Political Economy
and Statistics. The first practitioners of Sociology were in France and Germany, as the effects of
the industrial revolution were being felt across Europe, and early sociologists were primarily
concerned with understanding the nature of industrial society (Levine, 1995). The first theories
that emerged contrasted community structures, common in agrarian societies, with societal
structures, common in industrial settings (Tönnies, 1887/2002; Durkheim, 1893/1997; Redfield,
1953). Community systems are rooted in personal emotional attachments, a desire for
homogeneity, strict normative (informal) controls, and a rudimentary division of labor (e.g., by
gender, within the household), while societal systems are based on professional rational
attachments, valuing diversity, legal (formal) controls, and a complex division of labor (e.g., by
occupation, at workplaces). As industrialization develops, systems of social organization move
from community to society, and states and markets take central roles in the operation of society
(Polanyi, 1944).
Sociology came to America in the early twentieth century, and was first established at the
University of Chicago (Collins, 1994). American sociologists developed a new approach to the
study of modern (industrial) society, by appropriating ecological theories from Biology and
applying them to urban settings. American sociologists also highlighted interaction as the root of
social structures (Mead, 1934; Goffman, 1959; Blumer, 1969). As Sociology spread, other
perspectives grew as well, including Functionalist Sociology, which emphasizes social order and
the “social glue” that holds society together, and Conflict Sociology, which emphasizes social
hierarchies and the differing levels of status accorded to different groups (Collins, 1994).
At its core, Sociology is the study of the relationship between individuals and their social
contexts. This is sometimes known as the Sociological Perspective (or the Sociological
Imagination) , because in order to understand the social causes of human behavior, sociologists
typically must adopt a way of thinking that differs from how most people see the world (Mills,
1959). Humans are by nature social beings; we cannot survive unless we interact with other
humans. But our interactions are not random, they are shaped by our relationships with others,
by our cultural values and beliefs, by the rules of institutions we participate in, and by our
experiences in previous interactions, among other influences (Bellah, Madsen, Sullivan, Swidler
& Tipton, 1991). Through interaction, we create the terms of these social structures―the

CMS-02142.0 Introduction2.1 Objectives
The system test plan for the Card Czar Android Application will support the following objectives:
1. Identify responsible persons for quality assurance, test management and testing tasks
2. Define the test plan and testing methods involved
3. Identify resource information for test plan development 2.2 Background
The Card Czar Android application is a spin-off of the popular board game Apples to Apples. The purpose of the software test plan is to identify key aspects of software verification and requirements validation. Comment by Admin: Based on project plan comments maybe we should provide a short synopsis of how the game/app will work?
The Card Czar is an android application multiplayer card game that can deliver hours of fun. It allows a user to create a new game room and invite friends to play with them. For a game to begin there must be at least 3 players. Once a game is started each player is dealt at random a hand of response cards that will contain a noun (or response) on them. After all players are given the response cards a dealer will be randomly chosen to start the game. The dealer (card baron) will draw a bait card that consists of an adjective (or other text to be responded to). Each player then selects from their cards a noun that they think the dealer will choose as the best response to the question. Once all responses are received the dealer (Card Baron) then picks the answer they like the best and the player whose response it was gets a point and becomes the dealer (Card Baron) for the next round. This continues until a player has reached 5 points and becomes the winner (the Card Czar).
Maximum players: 6
Minimum players: 3
Bait cards: (Adjective/Question Options)
Response cards: (Noun/Answer Options)2.3 Scope
2.3.1 In Scope
The Card Czar Test Plan defines the unit, integration and acceptance testing. The test plan will include the following:
1. Testing of all interfaces between Android application modules
2. Testing of all quality requirements
3. Security test.
Software Training ProgramABC Company has 50,000 employees and wa.docxjensgosney
Software Training Program
ABC Company has 50,000 employees and wants to increase employee productivity by setting
up an internal software applications training program. The training program will teach employees how to use Microsoft software programs such as Vista, Word 2010, Excel 2010, PowerPoint 2010, Access 2010, and Project 2010. Courses will be offered in the evenings and
on Saturdays and taught by qualified volunteer employees. Instructors will be paid $40 per
hour. In the past, employees were sent to courses offered by local vendors during company
time. In contrast, this internal training program should save the company money on training
as well as make people more productive. The Human Resources department will manage the
program, and any employee can take the courses. Employees will receive a certificate for completing
courses, and a copy will be put in their personnel files. The company is not sure which
vendor's off-the-shelf training materials to use. The company needs to set up a training classroom,
survey employees on desired courses, find qualified volunteer instructors, and start offering
courses. The company wants to offer the first courses within six months. One person
from Human Resources is assigned full time to manage this project, and top management has
pledged its support.
1. Project Scope Management
Create a WBS for this project and enter the tasks in Project 201 0. Create milestones
and summary tasks. Assume that some of the project management tasks you need
to do are similar to tasks from the Project Tracking Database example. Some of the
tasks specific to this project will be to:
a. Review off-the-shelf training materials from three major vendors and decide
which materials to use.
b. Negotiate a contract with the selected vendor for its materials.
c. Develop communications information about this new training program. Disseminate
the information via department meetings, e-mail, the company's intranet,
and flyers to all employees.
d. Create a survey to determine the number and type of courses needed and
employees' preferred times for taking courses.
e. Administer the survey.
f. Solicit qualified volunteers to teach the courses.
g.
h.
Review resumes, interview candidates for teaching the courses, and develop a
list of preferred instructors.
Coordinate with the Facilities department to build two classrooms with 20 personal
computers each, a teacher station, and an overhead projection system
(assume that Facilities will manage this part of the project).
i. Schedule courses.
j. Develop a fair system for signing up for classes.
k. Develop a course evaluation form to assess the usefulness of each course and
the instructor's teaching ability.
I. Offer classes.
2. Project Time Management
a. Enter realistic durations for each task and then link appropriate tasks. Be sure
that all tasks are linked in some fashion to the start and end of the project. Use
the Project Tracking Database as an example. Assume that you have six mont.
Soft skills are most often characterized as the personal attribu.docxjensgosney
Soft skills are most often characterized as the personal attributes that make up the interpersonal and intrapersonal aspects of an individual. Soft skills can include attitude, manners, social skills, the ability to communicate, listen, delegate, resolve conflicts, work as a team player, adapt to change, and work hard.
The term “soft skills” is not an indication on their importance; in fact, it can be argued that soft skills are more important to character and success you might achieve. Soft skills are compared to, and more specifically complement, a person’s “hard skills” which are the specific skills required for a job. For example, the soft skills necessary for a leader in an organization would be vision, social skills, emotional intelligence, empathy, work ethic, communication, and flexibility while the hard skills would be execution, organization, knowledge of computer programs, a second language, planning, coordinating and a thorough understanding of the organization’s policies and procedures.
In the previous section, many soft skills have already been discussed. You practice a variety of soft skills every day as a matter of fact. They occur so naturally you may not even notice them or have never spent time to realize strengths that you regularly exhibit. Identifying your soft skills will give you talking point in interviews and in promotion discussions, as well as give you new goals and areas to improve upon.
Critical Soft Skills
The following is a list of primary soft skills that just about every employer is looking for from their staff. It is no means inclusive as soft skills refer to an often intangible set of abilities that to some degree are engrained in everyone. While the primary soft skills are generally agreed upon as important in any job capacity, there are countless others that are deemed imperative as well (See Module 3: Personal and Career Evaluation). Depending on the job or function you are performing, these may be just as imperative as the ones listed below but not as universal. Review the following and determine which areas are personal strengths and which are areas in need of improvement.
· Communication. Communication permeates just about every aspect of both personal and professional endeavors. It is associated with active listening, comprehension, and clear expression of thoughts and ideas. It includes oral, written, and non-verbal types. To improve your communication skills, focus on both what you are saying and how you are saying it, and always remember that receiving information is just as crucial as providing it so practice active listening instead of just thinking of what to say next.

Socometal Rewarding African WorkersBy Evalde Mutabazi and C. B.docxjensgosney
Socometal: Rewarding African Workers
By: Evalde Mutabazi and C. Brooklyn Derr
It was a most unusual meeting at a local café in Dakar. Diop, a young Senegalese engineer who was educated at one of Frances’s elite engineering grandes ‘ecoles in Lyon, was meeting with N’Diaye, a model factory worker to whom other workers from his tribe often turned when there were personal or professional difficulties. N’Diaye was a chief’s son, but he didn’t belong to the union and he was not an official representative of any group within the factory.
Socometal is a metal container and can company. While multinational, this particular plant is a joint venture wherein 52 percent is owned by the French parent company and 48 percent is Senegalese. Over the last twenty years Socometal has grown in size from 150 to 800 employees and it has returns of about 400 million FCFA (African francs) or $144 million. The firm is often held up as a model in terms of its Africanization of management policies, whereby most managers are now West African with only 8-10 top managers coming from France.
During the meeting N’Diaye asked Diop if he would accept an agreement to pay each worker for two extra hours in exchange for a 30 percent increase in daily production levels. If so, N’Diaye would the guarantor for this target production level that would enable the company to meet the order in the shortest time period. “If you accept my offer,” he said with a smile, “we could even produce more. We are at 12,000 (units) a day, but we’ve never been confronted with this situation. I would never have made this proposal to Mr. Bernard but, if you agree today, I will see that the 20,000 (unit) level is reached as of tomorrow evening. I’ll ask each worker to find ways of going faster, to communicate this to the others and to help each other if they have problems…”
Mr. Olivier Bernard, a graduate of Ecole Centrale in Paris (one of Frances’s more prestigious engineering schools), was the French production manager, and Diop was the assistant production manager. Mr. Bernard was about 40 and had not succeeded at climbing the hierarchal ladder in the parent company. Some report that this was due to his tendency to be arrogant, uncommunicative and negative. His family lived in a very nice neighborhood in Marseille, and it was his practice to come to Dakar, precisely organize the work using various flowcharts, tell Diop exactly what was expected by a certain date and then return to France for periods of two to six weeks. This time he maintained that he had contracted a virus and needed to return for medical treatment.
Shortly before Mr. Bernard fell ill, Socometal agreed to a contract requiring them to reach in short time a volume of production never before achieved. Mr. Bernard, after having done a quick calculation, declared, “We’ll never get that from our workers--- c’est impossible!” After organizing as best he could, he left for Marseille.
Diop pondered what N’Diaye had propos.

Sociology and General Education:
[1964]
By Robert Bierstedt
Sociology has many uses that are alike unsung and unappreciated. Some of these uses pertain not to its function as an instrument in the acquisition of knowledge but to a rather different kind of function—its function in the course and process of education. I am inclined to think in fact, as I hope the following remarks will show, that sociology is one of the most valuable of all of the disciplines in the university curriculum and that one of its most distinctive virtues lies precisely and centrally in the realm of general education.
Those of us who are engaged in the sociological enterprise ourselves tend to think—perhaps inevitably—that sociology is for sociologists, or at least for those who want to become sociologists. In our colleges and universities, however, we teach sociology to many more than these. It has been estimated that only two per cent of undergraduate students major in sociology and that only three per cent of this statistically small figure go on to do graduate work in sociology. The vast majority, in short, study sociology with no vocational or professional purpose. They appear in our undergraduate classes and study our introductory texts either because sociology is required as a supplementary subject in a closely related curriculum or because it satisfies a social science requirement in a curriculum for which another science would do equally well. There are those in addition, we may suppose and hope, who study sociology without being required to do so because it satisfies some wayward or vagrant curiosity of their own, because it stimulates an intellectual interest, because it has its own intrinsic fascination. This paper examines some of the educational and cultural advantages that sociology has to offer these other groups of students, particularly the last, comprised of those who have no intention of making a career in the field and who have no professional requirement to satisfy. I propose to show, in short, that sociology has an important role to play in general education, a role that is wholly commensurate with and sometimes even superior to the roles played by such older disciplines as history, literature, and philosophy. I shall maintain that sociology has many virtues that contribute to the cultivation of the intellect and that it merits a high rank. therefore, among the liberal arts and sciences.
The Liberated Mind:
The first of the educational virtues of sociology is that, like all al the liberal arts, it liberates the student from the provincialism of time, place, and circumstance. One of the great disabilities al those who have been denied the benefits of education is their parochialism, their attachment to the narrow corner of earth wherein they dwell. These are the people—and unfortunately they are the vast majority of mankind—who retain throughout their lives a primitive loyalty to their initial culture. For the uneducated t1 initial culture .
Socioautobiography Assignment GuidelinesThe purpose of this assign.docxjensgosney
Socioautobiography Assignment Guidelines
The purpose of this assignment is to give you the opportunity to apply the sociological imagination to your everyday life: to make connections between your everyday life and the broad sociocultural structures within which you live. In this assignment, you will reference appropriate Terminal Course Objectives (TCOs) that relate to your socioautobiography. You can find the TCOs in this course listed in the Syllabus and in the weekly objectives. This assignment can be related to any and all of the TCOs.
The Socioautobiography is a reflective paper that allows you the opportunity to explore the interconnections between biography (a slice of your life), the social structure, and culture. In preparation for this paper, please read this document, Socioautobiography Assignment Guideline boldface and underlined. At the end of the paragraph where a concept is used, indicate which TCOs your sociological concept refers. This should be done using parenthetical citation. An example of how to do this is provided below.
The final paper will be due at the end of Week 5. It should be three- to four-pages in length and may be in any format you choose. Feel free to get creative. You may choose to do a standard APA style paper or you can do your socioautobiography as a news story, movie review of your life, letter home to family, obituary, poem, lyrics, dialogue, old time radio program, or Shakespearean play whatever format you choose. Be sure to identify your format, double-space your paper, and correctly use a minimum of six sociological concepts covered in the weekly readings or lecture. Your six concepts should be in boldface and underlined. Consider the following example:
As I think about my college experience, because of my lack of English language skills, I realized that I was at a disadvantage with other students who were from upper-middle-class suburbs. I grew up in a farming community and, while there was the expectation that farm kids were going off to college, the community’s educational policy was based on the idea that farm kids would take over the family farm. As such, learning proper academic language was not a high priority (TCO 5 and TCO 9).
Note how, in this mini-socioautobiography, there are references to social class, education, and place of residence.Below are guidelines to follow as you work on your socioautobiography assignment.
· Papers should contain 3-to 4-pages of text, double-spaced (this does not include the title page).
· Refer to and properly use at least six sociological concepts covered in the lectures or textbook reading.
· Underline andboldface these concepts.
· Connect your concepts to the TCOs. Indicate the TCOs covered in parentheses, as demonstrated in the assignment instructions.
· Cite the textbook and/or lecture for the concepts and the Syllabus or course objectives for the TCOs in addition to any outside source material used both I body and on your reference page.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Scenario
You have been asked to lead a software development team to
build a system fulfilling the Statement of Need specified in
project 1. Your team is employed by a small company. The
customer wants a project that balances reasonable development
cost, timely delivery, software quality, and functionality.
In this project, you will work as part of team to define, refine,
and proof test case descriptions for the B&B system. If you do
not submit project 3 as part of a team you shall receive a zero
for this project.
Assume that the code for your B&B system has been developed
based on the SDD whose requirements trace through the SRS to
the SS. The next step is to develop a software test specification
(STS) that describes the test cases that you will perform to
verify correctness and validate compliance to customer
requirements of your B&B system.
You will select components from the Architectural Context
Diagram (ACD) for the B&B system and using the derived use
case and software requirements set for each software component
(as detailed in project 2) write the complete set of associated
white and black box test case definitions.
Completing this project will require that you produce a software
test specification (STS) document for the system. The objective
is to produce a cookbook for testers. A tester really only needs
the STS, the test environment, the test tools, the test data, and
of course, the software.
STS Templates
Please develop your STS using the IEEE Standard for Software
69. Test Documentation, standard 829-1998, posted in the Course
Resources > eReserves.Section6 in the IEEE Std 829-1998 is
most relevant to this assignment, so focus on completing this
section as thoroughly as you can.
The assignment
Complete the template as best as you can. Make any reasonable
assumptions based on your understanding of the problem that
allow you to address as many sections of the STS template as
possible. (Please read the “project descriptions” in the project
description section of the syllabus for additional context and
information on course projects).
Pay special attention to the following. The bulk of your grade
will be decided on how well you address these issues.
· Detailed Test Environment description - including test
hardware, software, test tools, and data
· White Box Test Cases (at least two): including; name of
the component being tested, test inputs, and expected outputs
· Black Box Test Cases: Select (at least) two components from
your ACD and using the derived use cases, scenarios, and
software requirements set for each of those components (from
your SRS), write the complete set of associated black box test
case definitions, including; name of the component being tested,
test inputs, expected outputs, and requirement(s) from the SRS
being tested.
· Traceability matrix: Each test case is used to assess
compliance to a SRS/SS requirement (i.e., Black Box) or to
assess correct computation, e.g., correct inventory level (i.e.,
White Box). Your Test Cases should trace to one or more SRS
requirements. See Table 4.4 (week 5 activities module 4
reading: Testing Strategies and Techniques) for an example of a
Traceability Matrix. (Please endeavor to use the use
cases/scenarios and requirements as you specified them in your
SRS).
Also please see chapter 7: Software Testing and chapter 8:
Software Testing Strategies from the online text (Books 24x7:
Software Engineering, Second Edition by Bharat Bhushan
70. Agarwal and Sumit Prakash Tayal) for additional context and
information on testing.
Section 7.6 discusses white-box testing; section 7.7 discusses
black-box testing; section 7.9 discusses test case design;
Hints and suggestions
1. For the STS, we shall be using only a subset of the IEEE
template; specifically section 6 of the IEEE (Test Case
Specification). Refer to Module 4 (week 5 activities module 4
reading: Testing Strategies and Techniques) for information on
software testing and examples of black-box and white-box test
case definitions. Remember: Each test case is used to assess
compliance to a SRS/SS requirement (i.e., Black Box) or to
assess correct computation, e.g., correct inventory level (i.e.,
White Box). Here are the details required for each test case
description:
· Test objective
· unique test case identifier
· input specification
· output specification
· special environment conditions
· special procedural requirements
· execution procedure steps
· dependencies
2. You are encouraged to select and use any one of your team
member's ACD, use cases or requirements set to complete this
assignment. Collaborate with your team and decide who has the
best representation to use.
Make sure your work is neat and legible. Your charts,
illustrations and diagrams can be done using any word
processing, drawing, and/or software CASE drawing tool (or by
hand) as long as it is neat and organized. Embed or scan any
diagrams that you create in your STS document—do not upload
them separately.

Bed and Breakfast Management System
SRS
1. Introduction
1.1 Purpose
The purpose of this SRS document is to provide a detailed
description of the Bed and Breakfast Management System. It
will detail the purpose and features of this software and
hardware system. It will describe what the system will do and
its constraints. Also it will detail human interaction, program
input and output.
1.2 Scope
This system will be a Bed and Breakfast Management System. It
will manage reservations and monitor expenses and profits. The
design is to enable automatic reservations based on room
availability by a given date. The will enable customers enter
72. desired stay and duration dates to see what rooms are available
and what the rate is. Once the start and end dates for the
selected room are entered, the customer will make a reservation
by paying a deposit payment for one day. The payment is made
by entering a credit card number. In addition to payment
information, the customer's name, address, and phone number
are inputted. Reservations are held without guarantee for an
agreed upon date. If the reservation is not guaranteed by that
date, the reservation will be dropped.
1.3 Definitions, acronyms, and abbreviations
Guest – The person paying to stay at the bed and breakfast
Guarantee – A contract between the owners of the bed and
breakfast and the prospective guest the the selected room will
be available within the reservation dates
