I. External Design Specifications 1. User displays and report formats Log in Screen


Administrator Welcome Screen


Search of User to Edit Screen


Edit User Screen


Department Head / School Admin / Senior Admin Welcome Screen


Edit Catalog Screens – Side by Side Word Documents


Post Edit Screen


2. User command summary Login-In: All users will be supplied with a user name and password to use. They will be brought to a page that will have a list of files that they have access to. If the system does not recognize the user name or password then an authorization-failed page will be displayed. Administrator Welcome Screen:

This screen serves as a homepage for the administrator. It has a list of all the files within the College Catalog. There is also a list of options on the left side where the administrator will be able to view the list of files, edit users, and add new users. The list of files also contains an indication of what level of completion the file is in.

Search of User to Edit Screen: The administrator will be able to search for any user by there name. Once the administrator finds the user they have options of making changes to the user’s access which is on the next screen Edit User Screen: The administrator will have the option to give them permission to log in, if they can view the whole catalog, what section they can edit, and make that user have administrator level of access. Department Head / School Admin / Senior Admin Welcome Screen: This screen displays the users name and what department or section of the catalog that they are a part of. Below that is a list of the files that user will have access to with a level of competition it is at. Edit Catalog Screen – Side by Side Word Documents: When the link to the file is clicked on, it will run a macro that will launch two Word windows side by side. The Word window on the left will be a read only file where the catalog files can be viewed. The only options that will be available are the close file option, scroll, and possibly the search (find) command.

The window on the right is where changes will be made with limited toolbar options. Users will only be able to insert or delete text. This window will come up in mark-up mode with the track changes option selected. The only menu options will be save, exit, or possibly the search (find) command. The ‘Save As’ option will not be available. The Reviewing toolbar will be displayed, allowing the user to turn mark-up mode on or off. This toolbar will also have other reviewing options available to the user.


Once the changes are made and save is clicked, the user will be brought to the next screen. Post Edit Screen: This screen is very similar to the Welcome Screen mentioned before, with one difference. It will say that your changes have been submitted and the level will be upgraded. Even though the level is updated it doesn’t mean that the user can’t make any more changes. The user will be able to make changes up until a certain cut-off date specified by Ms. Zimmerman. Any submissions after that will have to be done by hard copy.


3. Detailed data flow diagrams








4. Logical data stores With the help of Ms. Zimmerman, Mr. Smith, and the Spartacus Computing Solutions Software Engineering group, we compiled a list of all data items in the Siena College 2004-2005 Catalog. We broke the catalog down into sections and sub-sections, allowing us to identify which parts can be grouped together in files for our database. We also identified the source of the section, the person responsible for editing, and any hierarchy for changes/approval. The different sections in the following list will be placed in files in our database. Therefore, at this stage of the process, these are our logical data stores: Table of Contents: Source: Text file College VP Area: Vice President of Academic Affairs Editor: Kate Zimmerman (or appointee) Hierarchy: None Communications Directory: Source: Text file College VP Area: Vice President of Academic Affairs Editor: Kate Zimmerman (or appointee) Hierarchy: None Academic Calendar: Source: Text file College VP Area: Vice President of Academic Affairs Editor: Kate Zimmerman (or appointee) Hierarchy: None Siena College: Source: Text file General Information College VP Area: President of the College Editor: Fr.

5. Logical data dictionary

The following charts are Banner database tables. We have selected the following tables, highlighting the fields that we believe contain data that will be used in our database construction. These are initial estimates and will be further developed in the next phase as we get into our database design. These tables contain data items related to the course descriptions in the catalog: Form: SCACRSE & SCAPREQ Table: SCBCRSE Creator: SATURN Course General Information Base Table

6. Logical format of data files and databases The files that we receive that will be inserted into the database will likely consist of different formats. These formats may include .txt, .pdf, .doc, .html. Once in the database, the different sections of the catalog that the departments will be working on will most likely be stored in a .doc format. Our database will most likely store pointers that will point to these files. II. Testing Requirements

Testing of the software package can be considered one of the most important phases of the development process. Once the project has passed the design stage, it is important to thoroughly test the system in order to correct any design flaws that were previously overlooked. The testing provisions of this system were established during the requirement specification portion of development. We will elaborate on the GUI testing in this document, while further and more complete testing will be done in the upcoming phases.

To test are graphical user interface (GUI), we focused on aesthetic and usability conditions. Theses simple tests will ensure that our GUI is functional and aesthetically pleasing.

Aesthetic Conditions:

Procedure Pass/Fail

1. Are the general screens’ backgrounds the correct color? P F

2. Are the field prompts the correct color? P F

3. Are the field backgrounds the correct color? P F

4. Are all the screen prompts specified in the correct screen font? P F

5. Is the text in all fields specified in the correct screen font? P F

6. Are all the field prompts aligned perfectly on the screen? P F

7. Are all the field edit boxes aligned perfectly on the screen? P F

8. Should the screen be resizable? P F

9. Should the screen be minimisable? P F

10. Are all the field prompts spelt correctly? P F

11. Assure that all windows have a consistent look and feel. P F


12. Assure that all dialog boxes have a consistent look and feel. P F

Usability Conditions:

Procedure Pass/Fail

1. Do the links function correctly? P F

2. Do the buttons work correctly? P F

3. Does Word open correctly? P F

4. Does the Macro execute properly? P F

5. Do the check boxes work correctly? P F
