ABSTRACT

Online Examination is an Internet based questionnaire. The questions can be categorized according to

type, topic etc. The test is compiled with questions from different libraries. Tests are created on a random

basis per student with a particular time limit during which they are to be answered.

Online examination helps students and its mission is to offer a quick and easy way to appear for the

exam. It also provides the results immediately after the exam and security. The user can enter to write the

exam only with their valid username and password. This examination contains multiple choice questions and

appropriate number of options. There are no limitations on number of options and it can be randomized. More

than one option can be correct but the user can select only one option. This provides time limit. The user cansee their results after completing the exam. This helps the students to write the exam from far distance and

which can provide security and simplicity and other beneficial features to the user.

2.1) DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM

Online Examination project assesses students by conducting online objectivetests. The tests would be highly customizable. This project will enable educational institutes

to conduct test and have automated checking of answers based on the response by thecandidates.

The project allows faculties to create their own tests. It would enable

educational institutes to perform tests, quiz and create feedback forms. It asks faculty tocreate his/her set of questions. Faculty then creates groups and adds related students into the

groups. Further the tests are associated with specific groups so that only associated studentscan appear for the test. The result of the response would be available to the faculty of thequestion set. Further the result would also be mailed to the student. This project would be

helpful for creating practice tests, say for educational institutes and as a feedback form.

Online Examination System is aimed at computerizing the activities involved inExamination. The primary activities in the exam include importing the question paper,generating the reports.This project includes the following Modules:

1. Administrator module

This module deals with the Question paper importing, Student list importing,Student userid and password generation, Report generation, User blocking and Unblocking.The administrator can import the question paper, import the student list and generate the

userid & password, generate the reports and take printouts. Administrator can generate themarks report of the particular user. Administrator can generate the rules & instructions for

each exam. The administrator can also set the time for each examination.

2. Student Module

This module deals with the student logging into the system and taking the exam. Thestudent can login into the system with the userid given to him by the administrator to take

up the exam. He is provided with the question and choices through which he can select theanswers for each question. He is able to move back to the previous question and can changethe previously selected answers.

PURPOSE:-

Responses by the candidates will be checked automatically and instantly.

No time wasting for checking the paper.

Online examination will reduce the hectic job of assessing the answers given by thecandidates and give fast results

Being an integrated Online Examination System it will reduce paper work.

Can generate various reports almost instantly when and where required.

For students they give papers according to their convenience and time and there isno need of using extra thing like paper, pen etc.

SCOPE:

Scope of this project is very broad in terms of other manually taking exams.

Few of them are:-

This can be used in educational institutions as well as in corporate world. Can be used anywhere any time as it is a web based application(user

Location doesnt matter).

No restriction that examiner has to be present when the candidate takes the test.

It can also be useful for anyone who requires feedback based on objective type

responses.

2.2)FEASIBILITY STUDY:

1.) ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY

Economic analysis is most frequently used for evaluation of the effectiveness of the

system. More commonly known as cost/benefit analysis the procedure is to determine thebenefit and saving that are expected from a system and compare them with costs, decisions

is made to design and implement the system. This part of feasibility study gives the topmanagement the economic justification for the new system. This is an important input to themanagement the management, because very often the top management does not like to get

confounded by the various technicalities that bound to be associated with a project of this

kind. A simple economic analysis that gives the actual comparison of costs and benefits ismuch more meaningful in such cases. In the system, the organization is most satisfied byeconomic feasibility. Because, if the organization implements this system, it need notrequire any Additional hardware resources as well as it will be saving lot of time.

2.) TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY

Technical feasibility centers on the existing manual system of the test managementprocess and to what extent it can support the system. According to feasibility analysis

procedure the technical feasibility of the system is analyzed and the technical requirementssuch as software facilities, procedure, inputs are identified. It is also one of the important

phases of the system development activities. The system offers greater levels of userfriendliness combined with greater processing speed. Therefore, the cost of maintenancecan be reduced. Since, processing speed is very high and the work is reduced in the

maintenancepoint of view management convince that the project is operationally feasible.

3) BEHAVIOURAL FEASIBILITY

People are inherently resistant to change and computer has been known to facilitatechanges. An estimate should be made of how strong the user is likely to move towards the

development of computerized system. These are various levels of users in order to ensureproper authentication and authorization and security of sens itive data of the organization.

THE WHOLE INDUSTRIAL PROCESS

AND STUDY


18/52

18

3.1) STUDY OF EXISTING SYSTEM:

The whole process of assigning test and evaluating their scores after the test, wasdone manually till date. Processing the test paper i.e. checking and distributing respective

scores used to take time when the software was not installed.

The current system is very time consuming.

It is very difficult to analyze the exam manually.

Results are not precise as calculation and evaluations are done manually.

The chances of paper leakage are more in current system as compared to proposed

system.

Result processing takes more time as it is done manually

The existing system is manual entry of up keeping of the details of the persons whoare registered already.

And it is very difficult for each person to come to the exam center. It is very difficult

to the students from far distance to reach the exam center.

This system is required to prepare registration\application form, question paper for

the students and required to print a lot of number manually.

To calculate how many students registered, and verification of details of these

students in a month by hand is very difficult.

This requires quite a lot of time and wastage of money as it requires quite lot of

manpower to do that. Another factor that takes into account that is the possibility of errors and which

requires verification and checking of data relating to various operations which isdone manually.

The limitation of existing system is that it is not all personalized. It cannot be usedfor personal and quick reference. Even the other staff members can make quick

entries if the responsible person is not present.

3.2) PROPOSED SYSTEM

The modern computerized system is developed with the aim to overcome the drawbacksof existing system. The proposed system has got many advantages.

People from different parts of the world can register very easily.

The new system is more personalized.

It is maze in such a manner that all the new users can understand all the options in itvery easily. It is made in a quick and easy referential manner.

Access to all important matters are not always locked and can be opened easily at

the time of urgency.

The advantages of proposed system are that security is maintained in the newsystem. Securities for all important data are maintained confidentially.


19/52

19

As it is easily understandable and user friendly, quick entries can be made in this

system.

In comparison to the present system the proposed system will be less timeconsuming and is more efficient.

Analysis will be very easy in proposed system as it is automated

Result will be very precise and accurate and will be declared in very short span oftime because calculation and evaluations are done by the simulator itself.

The proposed system is very secure as no chances of leakage of question paper as it

is dependent on the administrator only.

The logs of appeared candidates and their marks are stored and can be backup for

future use

IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS


45/52

45

5.1) IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS

Implementation includes all those activities that take place to convert from the old

system to the new. The old system consists of manual operations, which is operated in avery different manner from the proposed new system. A proper implementation is essential

to provide a reliable system to meet the requirements of the organizations. An improperinstallation may affect the success of the computerized system.

IMPLEMENTATION METHODS:

There are several methods for handling the implementation and the consequentconversion from the old to the new computerized system.

The most secure method for conversion from the old system to the new system is to

run the old and new system in parallel. In this approach, a person may operate in the manual

older processing system as well as start operating the new computerized system. Thismethod offers high security, because even if there is a flaw in the computerized system, wecan depend upon the manual system. However, the cost for maintaining two systems in

parallel is very high. This outweighs its benefits.

Another commonly method is a direct cut over from the existing manual system tothe computerized system. The change may be within a week or within a day. There are no

parallel activities. However, there is no remedy in case of a problem. This strategy requirescareful planning.

A working version of the system can also be implemented in one part of theorganization and the personnel will be piloting the system and changes can be made as andwhen required. But this method is less preferable due to the loss of entirety of the system.

IMPLEMENTATION PLAN:

The implementation plan includes a description of all the activities that must

occur to implement the new system and to put it into operation. It identifies the personnelresponsible for the activities and prepares a time chart for implementing the system. Theimplementation plan consists of the following steps.

List all files required for implementation.

Identify all data required to build new files during the implementation.

List all new documents and procedures that go into the new system.

The implementation plan should anticipate possible problems and must be able to deal with

them. The usual problems may be missing documents; mixed data formats between current

and files, errors in data translation, missing data etc.EDUCATION AND TRAINING


46/52

46

The implementation of the proposed system includes the training of system operators.

Training the system operators includes not only instructions in how to use the equipment,

but also in how to diagnose malfunctions and in what steps to take when they occur. Soproper training should be provided to the system operators. No training is complete without

familiarizing users with simple system maintenance activities. Since the proposed system is

developed in a GUI, training will be comparatively easy than systems developed in a non-GUI. There are different types of training. We can select off-site to give depth knowledge to

the system operators.

Success of the system depends on the way in which it is operated and used.

Therefore the quality of training given to the operating person affects the successfulimplementation of the system. The training must ensure that the person can handle all the

possible operations.

Training must also include data entry personnel. They must also be given training

for the installation of new hardware, terminals, how to power the system, how to power itdown, how to detect the malfunctions, how to solve the problems etc. The operators must

also be provided with the knowledge of trouble shooting which involves the determinationof the cause of the problem.

The proposed system requires trained personnel for operating the system. Data entry

jobs must be done utmost carefully to avoid errors. This will reduce the data entry errorsconsiderably. It is preferable to provide the person with some kind of operating manuals

that will explain all the details of the system.

POST IMPLEMENTATION REVIEW

After the system is implemented, a review should be conducted to determinewhether the system is meeting expectations and where improvements are needed. System

quality, user confidence and operating systems statistics are accessed through suchtechnique event logging, impact evaluation and attitude surveys. The review not only

assesses how well the proposed system is designed and implemented, but also is a valuablesource of information that can be applied to a critical evaluation of the system.

The reviews are conducted by the operating personals as well as the software

developers in order to determine how well the system is working, how it has been acceptedand whether adjustments are needed. The review of the system is highly essential to

determine the future enhancements required by the system. The system can be consideredsuccessful only if information system has met it objectives. The review analyses the opinionof the employees and identifies the attitudes towards the new computerized system. Only

when the merits and demerits of the implemented system are known, one can determinewhat all additional features it requires are. The following are the issues to be considered in

the evaluation of the system.

SYSTEM TESTING

System testing is a critical aspect of Software Quality Assurance and represents the

ultimate review of specification, design and coding. Testing is a process of executing aprogram with the intent of finding an error. A good test is one that has a probability of


47/52

47

finding an as yet undiscovered error. The purpose of testing is to identify and correct bugsin the developed system. Nothing is complete without testing. Testing is the vital to the

success of the system.

In the code testing the logic of the developed system is tested. For this every module

of the program is executed to find an error. To perform specification test, the examinationof the specifications stating what the program should do and how it should perform under

various conditions.

Unit testing focuses first on the modules in the proposed system to locate errors.

This enables to detect errors in the coding and logic that are contained within that module

alone. Those resulting from the interaction between modules are initially avoided. In unittesting step each module has to be checked separately.

System testing does not test the software as a whole, but rather than integration of

each module in the system. The primary concern is the compatibility of individual modules.One has to find areas where modules have been designed with different specifications of

data lengths, type and data element name.

Testing and validation are the most important steps after the implementation of thedeveloped system. The system testing is performed to ensure that there are no errors in the

implemented system. The software must be executed several times in order to find out theerrors in the different modules of the system.

Validation refers to the process of using the new software for the developed system

in a live environment i.e., new software inside the organization, in order to find out the

errors.The validation phase reveals the failures and the bugs in the developed system. It will be

come to know about the practical difficulties the system faces when operated in the trueenvironment. By testing the code of the implemented software, the logic of the program can

be examined. A specification test is conducted to check whether the specifications stating

the program are performing under various conditions. Apart from these tests, there are somespecial tests conducted which are given below:

Peak Load Tests: This determines whether the new system will handle the volume of

activities when the system is at the peak of its processing demand. The test has revealed that

the new software for the agency is capable of handling the demands at the peak time.

Storage Testing: This determines the capacity of the new system to store transactiondata on a disk or on other files. The proposed software has the required storage space

available, because of the use of a number of hard disks.

Performance Time Testing: This test determines the length of the time used by thesystem to process transaction data.

In this phase the software developed Testing is exercising the software to uncover

errors and ensure the system meets defined requirements.


48/52

48

MAINTENANCE

Maintenance is making adaptation of the software for external changes (requirements

changes or enhancements) and internal changes (fixing bugs). When changes are made during the

maintenance phase all preceding steps of the model must be revisited.

There are three types of maintenance:

1.Corrective (Fixing bugs/errors)

2.Adaptive (Updates due to environment changes)

3.Perfective (Enhancements, requirements changes)


49/52

49

5.2) User Manual/guide

In the project there are two login fist is for user and second is for admin. When we signup into user there are two options: 1) subject for quiz and

2) result.

When we select the subject for quiz the list of subject will be open.

We select any subject to give exam and questions related to the

particular subject will be appearing.

After finishing the exam user can see the result immediately.

User also can review the test question and can see the answers given by

the user are correct or wrong. Another login is for admin.

When we enter into admin there are three options:

1) Subject List

2) Test List

3) Question List

If we select the subject list we can add and remove subject for exam.

Test list is for enter the test name or subject name and can enter total

number of the question.

In question list we can add, edit or remove question.
