Details
Software development is no different from any other creative process. It involves the planning, development, controlling, testing, and maintenance of software products. During this course, you’ll learn about the process's different stages. First, you’ll discover the software development life cycle (SDLC) and all the documents made in each phase. In addition, you’ll learn about different software development methodologies and the object-oriented analysis and design (OOAD) approach to solving programming problems. Next, you’ll learn to add UML to your programmer’s toolbox to design parts of an object-oriented program. This helps to make the development process easier, more streamlined, and more cost-effective. Another solution to programming problems is employing tried and true design patterns, which you'll learn to use. Finally, you’ll learn to implement Git as a tool to keep track of the changes in your program.
Result
After completing this course, you’ll know all about the software development life cycle (SDLC), different design methodologies, modeling with UML, version control with GitHub, and problem solving with the help of Object-oriented analysis and design patterns.

Software Design and Development: Software Engineering & SDLC Phases
Software development is no different from any other creative
- process. It involves the planning, development, controlling,
- testing, and maintenance of software products. The software
- development life cycle (SDLC) is a framework used to expand that
- development process into different stages, ensuring that the team
- works together to minimize risk, reduce cost, and deliver a
- high-quality product. Begin by exploring the role of software
- engineering in development. Then, examine the SDLC phases to
- discover the business needs for project analysis and project plan
- development. Finally, investigate development and implementation
- steps and learn about the importance of testing prior to
- deployment. Upon completion, you will be able to list all the
- phases of the SDLC and name a final document of each phase.
Software Design and Development: Methodologies
Most business related development processes include some kind of
- formal methodology. For software development we call these software
- development life cycle (SDLC) models and there are several of them.
- Learn why a software development model is needed for better
- software development. Discover several SDLC models including the
- waterfall model, incremental and spiral models, the V-model, and
- Agile models. Explore the features of each model and consider what
- they have in common. Finally, utilize comparative techniques and
- use cases to choose the best model for your development. After
- completion of this course, you'll be able to differentiate between
- and define popular software development methodologies.
Software Design and Development: Object-oriented Analysis and Design
In this course we adopt the object-oriented analysis and design
- (OOAD) methodology for developing computer programs. This
- methodology guides the developer into the proper structure for
- developing programs. We will begin by looking at this methodology
- to see how it helps the programmer develop better computer programs
- and consider how this approach compares to the traditional
- procedural style of software development. Next, we will discuss
- design patterns and take a look at how object-oriented
- relationships work. Finally, you will use an object-oriented
- programming (OOP) approach to solving programming problems and
- developing code based on your solutions. After completing this
- course, you'll be able to outline the object-oriented analysis and
- design (OOAD) approach to solving programming problems.
Software Design and Development: Modeling with UML
Programmers have several tools to choose from that can help make
- the development process easier, more streamlined, and more cost
- effective. One important tool is the Unified Modeling Language
- (UML) – a generalized modeling language that standardizes
- visualization of system design, giving everyone on the team one
- clear direction. UML helps present projects visually while
- maintaining the flexibility to be interpreted in different ways.
- Explore the many reasons for applying a UML approach to program
- development. Examine the architecture of UML, including the
- different types of models and diagrams. Learn about UML notations,
- and look at static and dynamic diagrams and apply use cases to
- each. At the end of this course, you will be able to add UML to
- your programmer’s toolbox to design parts of an object-oriented
- program.
Software Design and Development: Design Patterns & SOLID Principles
Since computer programming is now a mature industry, there are
- some functions that almost all programs perform, such as
- authenticating users. These practices have been formalized into
- programming patterns, which are the subject of this course. We
- begin by discussing the need for design patterns and look at the
- three basic types - creational, structural, and behavioral. Next,
- dive deeper into each pattern type and use examples in each case.
- Additionally, we discuss the SOLID design principles in detail.
- Finally, we talk about best software design practices in a general
- sense. After completing this course, you'll be able to employ tried
- and true design patterns to solve programming problems.
Software Design and Development: Version Control System
Computer programming has matured to the point where we can
- develop most business applications using three distinct
- technologies within the client-server framework. The three tiers of
- presentation, logic, and database (storage) lead to separate
- development teams in larger companies. This three-tier development
- means that code must be tested and synchronized before production.
- For this reason, version control of the entire code as a program is
- implemented. Explore the history of version control software and
- the most popular versioning systems, including Git. Take a deep
- dive into Git and discover its most important features. Then,
- install and configure Git on your local system before using Git to
- configure a project and create a workflow. Finally, branch out into
- GitHub’s features and various version control activities. After
- this course you will be able to implement Git as a tool to keep
- track of the changes in your program.
Course options
We offer several optional training products to enhance your learning experience. If you are planning to use our training course in preperation for an official exam then whe highly recommend using these optional training products to ensure an optimal learning experience. Sometimes there is only a practice exam or/and practice lab available.
Optional practice exam (trial exam)
To supplement this training course you may add a special practice exam. This practice exam comprises a number of trial exams which are very similar to the real exam, both in terms of form and content. This is the ultimate way to test whether you are ready for the exam.
Optional practice lab
To supplement this training course you may add a special practice lab. You perform the tasks on real hardware and/or software applicable to your Lab. The labs are fully hosted in our cloud. The only thing you need to use our practice labs is a web browser. In the LiveLab environment you will find exercises which you can start immediately. The lab enviromentconsist of complete networks containing for example, clients, servers,etc. This is the ultimate way to gain extensive hands-on experience.
