Introduction

1.1 Problem Summary:

We are going to solve the problem of finding PGs Door to Door. The main problem for
people is to find House in new city or new environment. When a person is Stranger about
the area or location then it is more difficult to find PG. There is also a problem to find PGs
as per ones requirements and budgets.
Other factor is to provide more facilities to people and to reduce paperwork. Earlier people
find PGs physically.To overcome this problem we are going to develop a web application.
The existing systems have some problems which are as follows:

Chapter 1: Introduction

A large numbers of people are involved to maintain the whole system that is very expensive.

Lesser user friendly.

The existing system is very slow and needs more time to search and maintain each and
every detail.

1.2 Introduction:
The purpose of this Project is to develop a dynamic website and an android mobile
application which will be helpful to users to find PGs and also helps the users to get
information regarding PGs available in the city. This system is very easy to use, for using this
system user have to register themselves on our website. Till now people have to suffer from
here to there for finding PGs. Here is the facility provide by our system to find PGs at sitting
in chair with cup of tea at home. This is the system in which user get some new features like
timing available to visit, Broker-based PGs or Non Broker PGs, Transport facilities available
nearby, Add to wish list, Rent agreement, Online payment procedure, Due payment reminder,
Social media integration, Get discount, Feedback and Reviews all such facilities we are going
to provide in our system.
There are mainly 4 actors within the organization such as Administrator, Owner, Broker and
User. Paying guest support system is integrates all their functions into a single system and
design.

Chapter 1: Introduction

PHP
PHP is a scripting language designed to fill the gap between SSI (Server Side Includes)
and Perl, intended for the web environment. Its principal application is the implementation of
web pages having dynamic content. PHP has gained quite a following in recent times, and it
is one of the frontrunners in the Open Source software movement. Its popularity derives from
its C-like syntax, and its simplicity. PHP is currently divided into two major versions: PHP 4
and PHP 5, although PHP 4 is deprecated and is no longer developed or supplied with critical
bug fixes. PHP 6 is currently under development. PHP was designed by Rasmus Lerdorf to
display his resume online and to collect data from his visitors.
PHP allows a static webpage to become dynamic. "PHP" is an acronym that stands for
"PHP: HypertextPreprocessor". The word "Preprocessor" means that PHP makes changes
before the HTML page is created. This enables developers to create powerful applications
which can publish a blog, remotely control hardware, or run a powerful website such as
Wikipedia or Wikibooks. Of course, to accomplish something such as this, you need a
database application such as MySQL.

MySQL is an open-source relational database management system (RDBMS); in July 2013, it
was the world's second most [a] widely used RDBMS, and the most widely used open-source
clientserver model RDBMS. Database is collection of all the information monitored by this
system.
MySQL is a popular choice of database for use in web applications, and is a central
component of the widely used LAMP open source web application software stack (and
other 'AMP' stacks).

LAMP

is

an

acronym

for

"Linux, Apache,

MySQL, Perl/PHP/Python." Free-software-open source projects that require a full-featured

database management system often use MySQL.
MySQL can be built and installed manually from source code, but this can be tedious so it is
more commonly installed from a binary package unless special customizations are required.
On most Linux distributions the packagemanagementsystem can download and install
MySQL with minimal effort, though further configuration is often required to adjust security
and optimization settings.

2.1 Design Analysis

AIT

Page 16

Team id: 39486

Chapter 2: Design

The design analysis as the name suggests analysis needed our innovative and creative
thinking to design something which has not been invented. It also helped us in keeping track
with our domain which basically helped us in keeping track with our domain is facing.
In this step, we analysis the Existing Online Paying guest and indentify the problems that
we are going to solve in our project. This analysis gives the function design, framework
design and design of a Gharwala Application.

2.2 Implementation Strategy

Before any of the implementation it is necessary to identify the problem areas of that
implmenation. Here is some implementation strategy for Gharwala application.
1. Plan the requirement for the system
a. Identify the problem
Before the system is carried out, it is necessary to make sure that the real needs and problems
of the users are understood (i.e. what are the problem in finding PGs door to door?)
b. Define the system
Once the problem completely identified, a list of features that fit somewhere between an
expression of the users real needs and a detailed description of exactly how the system fulfils
those needs, can be compiled to provide a top-level solution to the problem.
2. Plan the project timeline
This is a critical and most important step in which outside users and project teams must
acknowledge milestones dates and deadlines with satisfactory communication.
3. Plan the information architecture
Information architecture describes the process of organizing information in a proper way that
a website will contain. A well-planned and effective architecture will not only affect the web
user experience, but is also essential in laying the foundation for a successful website.

3.1 Implementation Environment:

GUI And Non-GUI:

A GUI offers graphical icons, and visual indicators, as opposed to text-based

interfaces, typed command labels or text navigation to fully represent the information
and actions available to a user. The actions are usually performed through direct
manipulation of the graphical elements. A computer without a GUI will usually be
text-based, meaning only text is shown on the screen and no icons or desktop. Note

AIT

Page 29

Team id:39486

Chapter 3: Implementation

that a GUI is not linked to the computer itself and is usually linked the OS or a
program.
In a GUI based model its looks attractive on the people's side. But to look at the
application side it requires a heavy load on being loaded. Well now a day there is no
application made on which GUI is not applied. All application developers now mainly
focus on the GUI so that the site looks attractive and also the people like to use it. On
that basis only we also have developed our application on the GUI basis only.
While in a non-GUI model it is easy being loaded but doesn't look that much
attractive that most people like to use it. So there is a disadvantage of the GUI based
application as it takes time to be loaded so people who don't like to wait or who do
not have patience.
Non-GUI Client: These are applications; generate server requests with a minimal amount
of human interaction.

GUI Clients: These are applications, where occasional Requests to the server result
from a human interacting with a GUI.

3.2 Testing:
Testing plays a vital role in the success of the system. System testing makes a logical
assumption that if all parts of the system are correct, the goal will be successfully achieved.
Once program code has been developed, testing begins. The testing process focuses on the
logical internals of the software, ensuring that all statements have been tested, and on the
functional externals, that is conducted tests to uncover errors and ensure that defined input
will produce actual results that agree with required results.

Unit testing:
Unit testing focuses verification effort on the smallest unit of software design the module.
Unit testing exercise specific paths in the modules control structure to ensure complete
coverage and maximum error detection.
Black Box Testing:
In black box testing, test cases are designed from an examination of the input/output values
and no knowledge of design or code is requires.
Again there are two approaches in it:
1) Equivalence class partitioning

strategy, if all types of errors detected by the first strategy are also detected by the second
testing strategy & the second strategy additionally detects some more types of errors.
Integration Testing:
Integration testing addresses the issues associated with the dual problems of verification &
program construction. After the software has been integrated a set of high-order tests are
conducted.
Validation Testing
At the end of Integration Testing, software is completely assembled as a package, interfacing
errors have been uncovered and correction testing begins.
Software Testing & Validation is achieved through serried of black box tests that demonstrate
conformity with the requirements. A test plan outlines the classes of tests to be conducted and
a test procedure defines specific test cases that will be used to demonstrate conformity with
requirements.
Both, the plan and the procedure are designed to ensure that all functional requirements are
achieved, documentation is correct and other requirements are met.
System testing:
System testing is series of different tests whose primary purpose is to fully exercise the
computer based system. Although each test has a different purpose, all the work should verify
that all system elements have been properly integrated and perform allocated functions.
There are essentially three kinds of system testing:
1) Alpha Testing:
Alpha testing refers to the system testing carried out by the test team within the
development organization.
2) Beta Testing:
Beta testing is the system testing performed by a select group of friendly
customers.
3) Acceptance Testing:
Acceptance testing is the system testing performed by the customers to determine whether
to accept or reject the delivery of system.

Chapter 3: Implementation

As each module is developed it is tested and if found faultless is integrated in main module.
If the module is not perfect it is built again.
Each test plan item should have the following specific characteristics:

It should be uniquely identifiable.

It should be unambiguous.

It should have well-defined test-data (test parameters)

It should have well-defined pass/fail criteria for each sub-item and overallcriteria for the

pass/fail of the entire test itself.

It should be easy to record.
It should be easy to demonstrate repeatedly
To prepare test plans.
To specify conditions for user acceptance testing.
To prepare test data for transaction path testing.

To plan user training.

3.4.3

Testing Cases

A test case, in software engineering, is a set of conditions under which a tester will determine
whether an application, software system or one of its features is working as it was originally
established for it to do. The mechanism for determining whether a software program or
system has passed or failed such a test is known as a test oracle. In some settings, an oracle
could be a requirement or use case, while in others it could be a heuristic. It may take many
test cases to determine that a software program or system is considered sufficiently
scrutinized to be released. Test cases are often referred to as test scripts, particularly when
written - when they are usually collected into test suites.
Formal cases:
In order to fully test that all the requirements of an application are met, there must be at least
two test cases for each requirement: one positive test and one negative test. If a requirement
has sub-requirements, each sub-requirement must have at least two test cases. Keeping track
of the link between the requirement and the test is frequently done using a traceability matrix.

Chapter 3: Implementation

Written test cases should include a description of the functionality to be tested, and the
preparation required to ensure that the test can be conducted.
A formal written test-case is characterized by a known input and by an expected output,
which is worked out before the test is executed. The known input should test
precondition and the expected output should test a post condition.

Informal cases:
For applications or systems without formal requirements, test cases can be written based on
the accepted normal operation of programs of a similar class. In some schools of testing, test
cases are not written at all but the activities and results are reported after the tests have been
run.
In scenario testing, hypothetical stories are used to help the tester think through a complex
problem or system. These scenarios are usually not written down in any detail. They can be
as simple as a diagram for a testing environment or they could be a description written in
prose. The ideal scenario test is a story that is motivating, credible, complex, and easy to
evaluate. They are usually different from test cases in that test cases are single steps while
scenarios cover a number of steps of the key.

4.2 Scope:
The system is highly flexible one and is well efficient to make easy interactions with the
client. The key focus is given on data security, as the project is online and will be transferred
in network. The speed and accuracy will be maintained in a proper way. This will be a userfriendly one and can successfully overcome strict and severe validation checks. The system
will be a flexible one and changes whenever can be made easy. Using the facility and
flexibility in .NET and SQL, the software can be developed in a neat and simple manner there
by reducing the operator work.
Since the project is built in PHP and MYSQL so it is easy to use and modify for long period.
The proposed system maintains all the paying guest information online. The system identifies
various sources of properties and accordingly provides information. The various sources are
land, apartments, row-house, etc. It provide information to one and all who visit the site but
