 Abstract

The main objective of this project is to build a student database system that will store

records of students. It is purposed to reduce time spent on administrative tasks. The system is

intended to accept process, generate students. The system is also intended to provide better

services to users, provide meaningful, consistent, and timely data and information and finally

promotes efficiency by converting paper processes to electronic form. The system was

developed using basic technologies such as MySQL database and PHP. The system is free of

errors and very efficient and less time consuming due to the care taken to develop it. All the

phases of software development cycle are employed and it is worthwhile to state that the

system is user friendly and strong. Provision is made for future development in the system.
 Introduction

Student Management System is software which is helpful for students as well as the

school authorities. In the current system all the activities are done manually. It is very time

consuming and costly. Our Student Management System deals with the various activities

related to the students.

The two main users involved in this system are

1. User(i.e.,Students)

2. Admin

In the Software we can register a student by the authentication code i.e., student id

and password with help of student id and password student can login his/her account and

view all the notices which is announced by admin.

 Purpose

The objective of Student Management System is to allow the administrator

of any organization to edit and find out the personal details of a student and allows the

student to keep up to date his profile .It’ll also facilitate keeping all the records of

students, such as their id, name, mailing address, phone number, DOB etc. So, all the

information about a student will be available in a few seconds.

Overall, it’ll make Student Information Management an easier job for the

administrator and the student of any organization.

Advantages:

 It helps the educationaladministrator to handle and manage students’ records.

 It helps educationaladministrator to generate report.

 It brings transparency and efficiency in the working of educational system.

Disadvantages:

 The system can only handle single educational organization.

 The system does not include bank payment, dd, cheque status.
Applications:

The website Student Management System is aimed towards recording a

considerable number of student records and needs online assistance for managing

records of students. Website should be user-friendly, ‘quick to learn’ and reliable

website for the above purpose. Student Management System is intended to be a

stand-alone product and should not depend on the availability of other website. The

system will also have an administrator who has full-fledged rights with regards to

performing all actions related to control and management of the website.

 Feasibility study

Whenever we design a new system, normally the management will ask for a

feasibility report of the new system. The management wants to know the technicalities and

cost involved in creation of new system.

- Technical feasibility

- Economic feasibility

- Physical feasibility

Technical feasibility:

Technical feasibility involves study to establish the technical capability of the system

being created to accomplish all requirements to the user. The system should be capable of

handling the proposed volume of data and provide users and operating environment to

increase their efficiency.

For example, system should be capable of handling the proposed volume of data and provide

users.

Economic feasibility:

Economic feasibility involves study to establish the cost benefit analysis. Money

spent on the system must be recorded in the form of benefit from the system. The benefits are

of two types:
Tangible benefits:

- Saving man labor to do tedious tasks saves time.

Intangible benefits:

- Improves the quality of organization.

Physical feasibility:

It involves study to establish the time responses of the new system being created. For

e.g., if the new system takes more than one day to prepare crucial finance statement for the

management, wherever it was required in an hour, the system fails to provide the same.

It should be clearly established that the new system requirements in the form of time

responses would be completely met with. It may call for increase in cost. If the required cost

is sacrificed then the purpose of the new system may not be achieved even if it was found to

be technically feasible.
 Scope of the Project

The proposed system will affect or interface with the user (student) and administrator.

The system works and fulfills all the functionalities as per the proposed system. It will

provide reduced response time against the queries made by different users. This project is

based on PHP language with MYSQL database which manage the details of the student

because it is a tedious job for any organization. Student Information system will store all the

details of the students including their background information.

All possible eatures such as verification, validation, security, user friendliness etc.

have been considered.

 System Design

Design is the first step in the development phase for any techniques and principles for

the purpose of defining a device, a process or system in sufficient detail to permit its physical

realization.

Once the software requirements have been analyzed and specified the software design

involves three technical activities - design, coding, implementation and testing that are

required to build and verify the software.

The design activities are of main importance in this phase, because in this activity,

decisions ultimately affecting the success of the software implementation and its ease of

maintenance are made. These decisions have the final bearing upon reliability and

maintainability of the system. Design is the only way to accurately translate the customer’s

requirements into finished software or a system.

Design is the place where quality is fostered in development. Software design is a

process through which requirements are translated into a representation of software. Software

design is conducted in two steps. Preliminary design is concerned with the transformation of

requirements into data

Unified Modelling Language Diagrams (UML):

 The unified modelling language allows the software engineer to express an analysis

model using the modelling notation that is governed by a set of syntactic semantic and

pragmatic rules.

 A UML system is represented using five different views that describe the system from

distinctly different perspective. Each view is defined by a set of diagrams, which is as

follows.
User Model View

i. This view represents the system from the user’s perspective.

ii. The analysis representation describes a usage scenario from the end-user’s

perspective.

Structural model view

 In this model the data and functionality are arrived from inside the system.

 This model view models the static structures.

Behavioural Model View

 It represents the dynamic of behavioural as parts of the system, depicting the

interactions of collection between various structural elements described in the user

model and structural model view.

Implementation Model View

 In this the structural and behavioural as parts of the system are represented as they

are to be built.

Environmental Model View

In these the structural and behavioural aspects of the environment in which the system

is to be implemented are represented.

UML is specifically constructed through two different domains they are

 UML Analysis modelling, which focuses on the user model and structural

model views of the system?

 UML design modelling, which focuses on the behaviouralmodelling,

implementation modelling and environmental model views.

ENTITY-RELATIONSHIP Diagrams

E-R (Entity-Relationship) Diagram is used to represents the relationship between entities in

the table.

The symbols used in E-R diagrams are:

SYMBOL PURPOSE

Represents Entity sets.

Represent attributes.

Represent Relationship Sets.

Line represents flow

Structured analysis is a set of tools and techniques that the analyst.

To develop a new kind of a system:

The traditional approach focuses on the cost benefit and feasibility analysis,

Project management, and hardware and software selection a personal consideration.

 Database Design

The data in the system has to be stored and retrieved from database. Designing the database is

part of system design. Data elements and data structures to be stored have been identified at

analysis stage. They are structured and put together to design the data storage and retrieval

system.

A database is a collection of interrelated data stored with minimum redundancy to serve many

users quickly and efficiently. The general objective is to make database access easy, quick,

inexpensive and flexible for the user. Relationships are established between the data items and

unnecessary data items are removed. Normalization is done to get an internal consistency of

data and to have minimum redundancy and maximum stability. This ensures minimizing data
storage required, minimizing chances of data inconsistencies and optimizing for updates. The

MySQL database has been chosen for developing the relevant databases.

Student Management System (SMS) contains 6 MySQL tables :

tbladmin table Structure : This table store the admin login and personal Details.

tblclass table Structure : This table store the class and section.

tblnotice table Structure : This table store the notices detail which is announced by admin.

tbl public notice table Structure : This table store the public notices detail which is

announced by admin.
tblstudent table Structure : This table store the students details of educational organization.

tblpagetable Structure : This table store the details of about us and contact us pages.
Class Diagram:

The class diagram shows a set of classes, interfaces, collaborations and their relationships.
 System Testing

SOFTWARE TESTING TECHNIQUES:

Software testing is a critical element of software quality assurance and represents the ultimate

review of specification, designing and coding.

TESTING OBJECTIVES:

1. Testing is process of executing a program with the intent of finding an error.

2. A good test case design is one that has a probability of finding an as yet

undiscovered error.

3. A successful test is one that uncovers an as yet undiscovered error.

These above objectives imply a dramatic change in view port.

Testing cannot show the absence of defects, it can only show that software errors are present.

There are three types of testing strategies

1. Unit test

2. Integration test

3. Performance test

Unit Testing:

Unit testing focuses verification efforts on the smallest unit of software design module. The

unit test is always white box oriented. The tests that occur as part of unit testing are testing

the module interface, examining the local data structures, testing the boundary conditions,

execution all the independent paths and testing error-handling paths.

Integration Testing:

Integration testing is a systematic technique or construction the program structure

while at the same time conducting tests to uncover errors associated with interfacing. Scope

of testing summarizes the specific functional, performance, and internal design characteristics

that are to be tested. It employs top-down testing and bottom-up testing methods for this case.

Performance Testing:

Timing for both read and update transactions should be gathered to determine whether

system functions are being performed in an acceptable timeframe.

Conclusion
 The project titled as Student Management System was deeply studied and analyzed

to design the code and implement. It was done under the guidance of the experienced project

guide. All the current requirements and possibilities have been taken care during the project

time.

Student Management System can be used by education institutes to maintain the

records of students easily. Achieving this objective is difficult using a manual system as the

information is scattered, can be redundant and collecting relevant information may be very

time consuming. All these problems are solved using this project.
