Case Study: Odd Jobs Limited.

Part A

Question: Report

Your manager Colin Grey is sure an adaptive systems development methodology would be useful in this project but there is little knowledge about these in the organisation. Therefore, they want you to write a report discussing adaptive development and two methodologies Scrum and XP. State under what circumstances each one would be used and then make a recommendation for this project. To do well in this report you must use the detail from the case study in your report as examples, rather than given general information.

The following sections need to be included;
o Adaptive methodologies - general introduction to the methodologies, including when you would use an adaptive methodology.
- General discussion
- Advantages
- Disadvantages
o Scrum
- General discussion
- Advantages
- Disadvantages
o XP
- General discussion
- Advantages
- Disadvantages
o Recommendation
Your target audience is executive business people, who have extensive business experience but limited computing knowledge.
Your report should be no less than one thousand (1000) words and it would be best to be no longer than one thousand five hundred (1500) words long. Appropriate referencing is required. The textbook Satzinger et. al is a valid resource, however it is expected that at least five (5) other resources will also be used.

Question 2: Memo

Review the OJL case study and answer the following question with reference to the information in the case study.

OJL have requested that you write a brief memorandum commenting on and setting a plan for the requirements gathering. Briefly discuss requirements gathering in general, introduce your plan and then state why you would recommend this plan. You are expected to use information from the course in your answer, for instance lecture three such as how you will gather information, what questions will you ask. Please cover the make or buy decision, could you buy already existing software to solve OJL problem (you must justify your answer). It is expected that you use the detail from the case study in your essay and failure to do this will reduce your marks

Your target audience is executive business people, who have extensive business experience but limited computing knowledge. Attach this memo to your report from question 1 as an appendix.

There is limited information available to you now but you are required to make reasonable assumptions based on the information that you have. Assumptions should be noted and specifically mentioned within your memo. Your memo should be no less than seven hundred and fifty (750) words and it would be best to be no longer than one thousand (1000) words long.

Part B

Modelling and Diagramming

Review the OJLcase study and answer the following questions with reference to the information in the case study.

Do NOT extend the scope for any of the following solutions beyond that specifically described in the case study above.

You are permitted to make reasonable assumptions where necessary but these should be noted.

It is recommended that you review all documentation for this case study before finalising any single solution. Ensure that the required consistency has been included within and between each question solution.

Question 3: Event Table

Review the OJL Limitedcase study and prepare an event table for the information system to support the business processes as described. Use at least the following headings for the Event Table:

Question 4: Domain Model Class Diagram

Review the OJL Limitedcase study to prepare a domain model class diagram for the supporting information system.

Solutions must follow the methodology as outlined within the Satzinger et al textbook. Solutions are expected to show:
- The class name and attributes list for each class and sub class as required
- All required associations
- All attributes as specifically mentioned in the case study must be reflected
- Other attributes as needed to support the described functionality.

It is not necessary to show methods, however you may include them if you wish. Solutions are expected to align with the components as shown in figure 4-21.

Question 5: Design Class Diagram

Prepare a Design class diagram for the Joband Staff memberclasses ONLY. These two classes should be part of the Domain model class diagram solution for the previous question.

Each of these design class diagrams are expected to have a complete attributes list and a comprehensive methods list which supports the specified functionality as described in the case study.

Solutions must follow the methodology as outlined within the Satzinger et al textbook. Solutions are expected to align with the components for the ‘Design class diagram for Student' as shown on the right hand of figure 10-8.

Question 6: Use Case Diagram

Review the OJL Limitedcase study and your event table solution from question 1 to prepare a Use Case diagram for the supporting information system.

Solutions must follow the methodology as outlined within the Satzinger et al textbook. Solutions are expected to align with the components as shown in figures 3-13 and 3-16.

Question 7: Use Case Description (intermediate)

Prepare a Use Case intermediate description for the 'Creates job' use case, as documented in the event table solution and the use case diagram solution.

Solutions must follow the methodology as outlined within the Satzinger et al textbook. Solutions are expected to align with the components as shown in figure 5-2.
