Course Description

In software engineering, we work in teams because the problems we face are too big for one person to handle alone. Communication is key, and teams include developers, testers, architects, system engineers, customers, and project managers. Planning is important for large projects. Implementation involves more than just writing code – it also means following guidelines, writing documentation, and creating unit tests. But unit tests alone aren't enough; we need to make sure all the pieces fit together. Metrics help us identify areas where there may be problems and if our code meets certain standards. Even after coding, our work isn't done. Maintaining software for large projects can keep many people busy for a long time. Project management is important for success, and engineers need the right tools. There are different methods of software testing. Static testing involves examining code, while dynamic testing involves running the actual program. Both check functionality.
