Prerequisite: CSC175

Course Learning Goals: Students will identify kinds of users, scenarios, and use-cases for systems. Students will experiment with using both agile and plan based methodologies. Students will develop a complete new system. The development process includes requirements elicitation and analysis, selection of test cases, solution design and implementation, testing, and documentation using UML notations. Students will apply validation techniques (inspection, testing) and evaluate their effectiveness. Students will become familiar with selecting and applying appropriate design patterns to address a given software design issue by using design patterns in their final project. In designing their project, students will demonstrate proficiency in a change management tool and test design.
