Introduction

Introduction of system:Payroll Management System is basically used to build an application program, that a company uses to manage the records of the employees working in the company. Only the administration has the legal rights to work with the system. mployees can only log on to the system to see their current status. Purpose:

Visual Studio .NET

!reate records "elete records Sa#e records for employees according to their information gi#en to the administration of the company

Scope:$he system is designed for the enhancement of de#elopment of computerised parol system for % works construction it includes the features:

&dd employee record. dit employee information. "elete employee records. Print and sa#e the payslip of each employee. 'pdating employee information as well as rhe weekly salary. !ash ad#ance . $he rate per day,o#ertime gross payment,netpay and deduction such as with holding pay.

Aim:-$he main aim of this pro(ect was to put whate#er was learnt in )a#a, into practice. &nd the result obtained was a simple payroll calculator, in addition to a new language learnt. &lso it pro#ided a better understanding of OOP.$his pro(ect helped in gaining confidence in writing the codes in )a#a.

P&'P'SE( S#STEM:& computeri2ed payroll system performs the same functions that manual methods of payroll do. It stores employee data, such as names, addresses, social security numbers, pay rates and withholding allowances of each person.

TESTIN9
INT&'()*TI'N:Software $esting is the process of e-ercising or e#aluating a system or system components by manual or automated means to #erify that it satisfies specified reIuirements. It is the process of e-ecuting a program or systems with the intent of finding errors. In software life cycle the earlier the errors are disco#ered and remo#ed, the lower is the cost of their remo#al. Software testing is itself an e-pensi#e acti#ity, yet launching of software without testing may lead to cost potentially much higher than that of testing. ffecti#e software testing will contribute to the deli#ery of higher Iuality software products, more effecti#e users, and lower maintenance costs, more accurate and reliable results. ?ence, software testing is necessary and important acti#ity of software de#elopment life process. &ny data item will ha#e certain constraints like, the type of the data, length of the data, uniIue data and compulsory data. &nd when getting these data from the user appropriate tests should be done to ensure that the data item confirm to the constraints. $his is called P#alidation of the dataQ.

Testing Model:)nit Testing:'nit $esting is done software prototype to determine that indi#idual program modules perform to specification. In unit testing each module is tested alone in an attempt to disco#er any errors in its code. $his in#ol#es the design of the test cases that #alidate that the internal program logic is functioning properly, and that program inputs produce #alid outputs. &ll decision branches and internal code flow should be #alidated. 'nit testing in#ol#es the use of debugging technology and testing techniIues at an application component le#el and is typically the responsibility of the de#elopers, not the %& staff.
25

Integration Testing:Integration testing is a systematic techniIue for constructing the program structure while at the same time conducting tests to unco#er errors associated with interfacing. "uring this acti#ity, unit tested components were taken and a program structure was built as per the design. $hen incremental integration was performed on the system. $his means that programs were constructed and tested in small increments instead of testing the entire program as a whole. $his was done because correction of errors becomes difficult in case of whole program testing as many errors were detected and it is not easy to correct them at one go. $hus, through incremental integration testing, any error unco#ered could be easily noted and corrected and interfaces were tested completely. 8alidation Testing:+alidation $esting occurs when we ha#e to declare some #alidation regarding our input screens. /or e-ample, suppose we ha#e a input screen in which we want to enter date between 0 to 30, so in case if the user enters date abo#e 30 i.e., 31, then it will show an error. $his is called +alidation $esting. Acceptance Testing 5Alpha and 2eta Testing6:&n acceptance test is a test carried out by the customer or the end user rather than the de#eloper in order to enable the customer to #alidate all reIuirements. &lpha testing and *eta testing are two types of acceptance tests that were conducted. Alpha Testing:&lpha test is conducted in a controlled en#ironment. &s a matter of fact, the end user conducts alpha test at the de#eloper,s site. *ut since I,m the de#eloper and this system has been de#eloped at the company,s site itself, it is assumed that alpha test has been conducted at the company,s site. "uring the course of the system de#elopment, the end user was operating the software in my
26

presence and I was recording the errors that were occurring and other problems that were coming up. ;ectification was made accordingly.

2eta Testing:*eta testing was also conducted at the company site by the end user, but in my absence. ?ere, the end user himself recorded all the problems that he had encountered during testing the system and then reported these to me at regular inter#als. &s a result of problems reported during beta testing, modifications were made to o#ercome the problems.
