Singleton Pattern

Ensures a class has only one instance, and provides a global point of access to it

What is the difference between failure, fault, and error?

Failure Observable incorrect behavior of a program. Conceptually related to the behavior of the program, rather than its code. Fault (bug) Related to the code. Necessary (not sufficient!) condition for the occurrence of a failure. Error Cause of a fault. Usually a human error (conceptual, typo, etc.)

difference between error and fault

Fault (Bug): Related to the code. Necessary (not sufficient) condition for the occurence of a failure Error: Cause of a fault. Usually a human error

What are the benefits to Agile?

Flat cost, adaptability

What are the principles of Agile development?

Focus on the code/product rather than design Value people you work wiith over adhering to specific development process Use an iterative approach to quickly deliver a working product, then evolve it as needed Involve customer in development process and value their feedback Expect that requirements will change and be prepared to adapt, aka stay agile Have a simple but functional product that meets all requirements, documentation is lower priority

What type of requirements do Use Cases usually constitute

Functional requirements

How do you merge a feature branch into the main branch?

Git checkout main -> git merge feature

Include: when one use case uses another use case, dotted line pointing to child use case Extend: when use case can take an alternate path, depict with dotted line pointing to base use case

What are some of XP's practices?

Incremental planning, small releases, simple design, test frst, refactoring, pair programming, continuous integration, on-site customer

DCD lines: interface generalization

Interface: dashed line, white arrow (also called realization relationship) often omit trivial / obvious generalization relationships, such as drawing the Object class as a parent

What is the format of a User Story?

"As a website user, I want to able to search on the webpage so that I can find necessary information" title should be some action you can demo, tells the who/what/why

What tests can be used to determine the validity of use cases?

"How can using the system provide observable value to the user, or fulfill their goals?" elementary business process test boss test size test

DCD lines: composition

"is entirely made of" stronger version of aggregation the parts live and die with the whole child cannot exist independent of the parent symbolized by a black diamond The relationship between the whole and the part, but the whole and the part cannot be separated .

DCD lines: aggregation

"is part of" child can exist independently of the parent The relationship between the whole and the part, but the whole and the part can be separated

DCD lines: dependency

"uses temporarily" symbolized by dotted line often is an implementation detail, not an intrinsic part of that object's state X uses Y methods of a class that use another class's object as a parameter .

Alt

(alternative path) If-then-else, use brackets for conditions

Loop

(iteration) Specify guard/condition in brackets

Opt

(optional path) Specify guard/condition in brackets

Ref

(reference to other ssd) Reference an interaction or entire other diagram to manage size

Why use an object-oriented approach?

- Reduces maintenance costs by limiting the effects of changes to code - Improves development process by favoring reuse of code and design - Enforces good design principles with high cohesion and low coupling

drawing DCDs: Comments

A note symbol attached to the appropriate class by a dashed line may represent several things: UML note or comment •UML constraint •Method body

Elementary Business Process Test

What are two characteristics of Stories?*

A task the user would complete on the software Story is all on one card without specific instructions

What is an object-oriented approach?

A technique used by dissecting our solutions into pieces called classes and objects

What does a Domain Model show? Does it show software classes?

It represents the concept/problem, not the software solution Does not show classes

What is "iteration" in software development?

Iterative development is a way of breaking down the software development of a large application into smaller chunks. You deliver working software quickly and evolve it quickly

sde acronyms: KISS ;)

Keep It Simple Stupid •Keeping it simple is surprisingly hard •Avoid trying to overengineer a solution to a simple problem

How do we decide the order of implementation of classes in DCD?

Least to Highest Coupled (look at outgoing relationship arrows) aka start with classes that are only connected to 1 other class, then 2, etc possible first classes to implement? next are classes only dependent on the prior implementations

What are the characteristics of XP?

Lightweight Disciplined and has a set practice for developers to follow humanistic , places customer/developers at center of process Focus on good software development principles Values: communication, simplicity, feedback, courage Mentality of sufficiency: what is good enough?? Write tests, restructure often, discuss Flexible with timelines, emphasis on strong engineering practices, lots of customer involvement

What are the differences between local and remote repositories?

Local is on your machine and no one can see the changes except you Remote is on github/the cloud and is the version of code that everyone can access

sde acronyms: LGTM

Looks Good To Me Term often used in code reviews when there is too much code to review and you just want to move on with your life

What is a Sequence Diagram? How does it relate to use cases?

Models the interactions between objects in a system and the order in which they are processed, showing the flow of messages between objects in a system. Shows how objects interact with each other over the course of a single event. A sequence diagram is commonly created for each use case or for each scenario.

How do we create a new branch?

New branch command is git checkout -b name

What are some downsides to the Waterfall method?

Offers no flexibility and is inconvenient/time consuming to change requirements

When should we create DCDs?

Once the interaction (dynamic) diagrams have been completed it is possible to identify the specification for the software classes and interfaces.

What is the syntax of representing objects in SD?

Squares with object type, optionally preceded by object name and colon write object's name if it clarifies the diagram object's "life line" represented by dashed vert. line

Where do requirements come from?

Stakeholders, application domain, existing documentation

What is the difference between static and dynamic diagrams? What is an example of each?

Static diagrams describe the state of a system from a variety of perspectives. A static diagram describes what a piece of the system is. A dynamic diagram describes what a portion of the system is doing.

How do we switch branches?

Switch to a branch using git checkout name

What is Version Control?

System that tracks changes in computer files, like a google doc for your code so that changes occurring simultaneously don't impact each other

In an SSD, what are systems treated as?

System viewed as a "black box", Internal objects not shown

What is the Waterfall method?

Team develops software in an orderly sequence of steps which allows for early error detection and works well for software with a stable product definition and requirements that will not change

Developer testing

Testing done by developers within an organization

Beta testing

Testing done with a selected group of clients outside the organization

Alpha testing

Testing performed within the organization

What goes in a Use Case Diagram?

What is the 3-stage process for making a commit (and pushing to the remote repository)?

Add, commit, push

How do we map DCD aggregation relationship to code?*

Aggregation is one type of association between two objects that is also describing the "have a" relationship. Composition is a specific type of Aggregation which implies ownership. Aggregation is indicated using a straight line with an empty arrowhead at one end. For example, your car consists of wheels, engine, gearbox, steering, and the main body, etc. It is an assembly, and the other parts are its constituents. Here, car to the wheel is one Aggregation, car to the engine is another aggregation, car to gearbox another, and so on.

Optimistic approximation testing

The program under test is exercised with a (very small) subset of all the possible input data- We assume that the behavior with any other input is consistent with the behavior shown for the selected subset of input data

How do you find conceptual classes?

Underline the nouns in your user stories

What are the different testing granularity levels?

Unit testing Integration System Acceptance testing Regression testing

Size test

Use cases contain many steps, as opposed to a single step within a series Shouldnt be too small

when to use Attribute Text Notation

Used for data type objects

when to use association line notation

Used for non-data type objects

What are the steps to analyzing requirements?

Verification & validation

What are some differences between Waterfall and Agile?

Waterfall allows you to discover errors early and adapt, but Agile allows you to address errors as they come up which reduces the cost of development over time

What questions are asked during the Daily Scrum?

What did you do yesterday? What will you do today? What obstacles are you facing?

diagramming SDs: Reflexive message

When an object sends a message to itself indicated with a message arrow that starts and ends at the same lifeline

What are the benefits of using iterative development?

Working software from the start. Delivers business value with each iteration. Adaptable to changes in requirements throughout development. Design effort is expended only for what will be built next. Ability to course correct with every iteration.

What is TDD Cycle? Define each part of the cycle

Write test code (make it fail) •Code that fulfills requirements •Write functional code (make it work) •Working code that fulfills requirements •Refactor (make it better) Clean working code that fulfills requirements

DCD lines: Associations

X and Y are related (has) Can be dependency, aggregation, or composition association, can be unidirectional

DCD lines: Generalization

X is a Y Inheritance between classes or interface implementation Realization is also part of this hierarchies drawn top-down arrows point upward to parent line/arrow styles indicate whether parent is:

DCD lines: Realization

X is a Y interface implementation

sde acronyms: YAGNI

You Aren't Gonna Need It •A programmer should not add functionality until deemed necessary •The principle behind XP practice: "do the simplest thing that could possibly work". Also relevant to TDD. •Must be used in combination with several other practices, such as continuous refactoring, unit testing and continuous integration

How does it relate to a Domain Model? How does it differ?

a Design Class Diagram differs from a Domain Model in the sense that it shows software entities rather than actual concepts.

User stories

a subset of use cases and are a simpler/more informal way to describe user needs

git add

add changes that you want to make to the "staging area", you either say git add (filename) or you can say git add . to add all changes that youve made across your local repo

git clone

adds the remote repo to your machine making it a local repo

git merge

allows you to put the changes that you have made in one branch into another branch without committing to main branch. This is two steps, git checkout (name of the branch you want to merge into) then git merge (name of the branch you are merging)

What fragments can be used in an SSD?

alt, loop, opt, ref

diagramming SDs: Deletion

an X at bottom of object's lifeline Java doesn't explicitly delete objects; they fall out of scope and are garbage-collected

What is an activation bar?

an interaction between two objects occurs when one object sends a message to another. the box placed on the lifeline to indicate that an object is active (or instantiated) during an interaction. Length of the rectangle indicates the duration of the objects staying active.

Object oriented design

applies constraints of technology and implementation to the analysis model, strives to describe how the system will work using these objects

diagramming SDs: Creation

arrow with 'new' written above it Indicates object being created an object created after the start of the scenario appears lower than the others

What are the 4 types of visibility between objects?

attribute, parameter, local, & global

git status

check status of local changes you have made (if they are added/committed/etc)

drawing DCDs: Classes, Abstract Classes, Interfaces

class name in top of box write <<interface>> on top of interfaces' names use italics for an abstract class name

Use case

collection of related success and failure scenarios to describe actors using a system to accomplish a goal

git commit

commit the changes that are added in the staging area. Use -m to add a message explaining what you are doing

Associations

connected with a straight line: ex each car has one make (aggregation would be car maker has multiple models) x has 1 y Librarian has 1 library that they work at

Object-oriented analysis

create a model of the system without considering constraints, strives to describe what the system should do in terms of key objects in the problem domain Uses use case diagram and domain model to map out system

Offstage actor

has an interest in the behavior of the use case, but isnt directly involved (ex government funds company)

Primary actor

has user goals fulfilled through using SuD (ex user looks at data analysis)

Static verification/analysis

identify (specific) problems statically, that is, considering all possible executions

assuming visibility in DCDs

if not mentioned, attributes are assumed to be private and methods are assumed to be public by default.

Concrete style use case

includes ui decisions and is not used for early requirement analysis

diagramming SDs: message (method call)

indicated by horizontal arrow to other object write message name and arguments above arrow

Scenarios

interactions between actors and the SuD

Product backlog

list of all tasks that need to be done

Sprint backlog

list of product backlog tasks that need to completed in the current sprint

drawing DCDs: operations / methods (optional)

may omit trivial (get/set) methods but don't omit any methods from an interface! should not include inherited methods Visibility + public (public) # protected - private Underline static methods parameter types listed as (name: type) omit return_type on constructors and when return type is void method example: + distance(p1: Point, p2: Point): double

Verification

means the software fulfills system requirements aka meets specifications aka fulfills every necessary requirement

Validation

means the software fulfills user requirements aka the expectations of the end user, aka all the requirements achieve the intended goals

git checkout

move to an existing branch using git checkout (branch name), create a new branch and move to it using git checkout -b (branch name)

Casual use case

multiple paragraphs covering multiple scenarios

drawing DCDs: other*

o Line/Arrow notations o Operations/Methods o Relationships ??????

Brief use case

one paragraph summary of functionality

Local visibility

B is a (non-parameter) local object in a method of A Local visibility from A to B exists when B is declared as a local object within a method of A. • Relatively temporary visibility because it persists only within the scope of the method • Two common means by which local visibility is achieved are: • Create a new local instance and assign it to a local variable. • Assign the returning object from a method invocation to a local variable. • As with parameter visibility, it is common to transform locally declared visibility into attribute visibility. • Creating an object of type B in a method in class A

Regression testing

Back checking the system to make sure the backing infrastructure is okay after any changes

Activation bar

Bar on lifeline of object to represent when it is active

What testing is done outside the organization?

Beta testing: testing by sample of real users (acceptance testing)

difference between sprint review and sprint retrospective

Both occur at the end of each sprint, but stakeholders attend the more formal review while the retrospective is internal for the team

Conceptual classes, attributes and derived attributes

Conceptual classes go in a box Attributes and Derived Attributes go in the box with the conceptual classes they are related to Derived attributes have a slash

DCD vs Domain Model

DCD specifies software class interactions, DM does not

How do DCDs translate into workable code?

DCDs are essentially a graphical depiction of the static state of the system. It shows you what methods and attributes each class has.

How do we represent the lifeline of objects in SD?

Dashed vertical line descending from object box Lifeline boxes represent the participants in an interaction

Roles and multiplicities

Dependencies: x uses y Library member uses their library account to check out a book Associations: x has 1 y Librarian has 1 library that they work at Aggregations: x has many ys Library has several librarians Directed association: x has y but y does not have x Library member is linked to the book they checked out, but the book is not linked to them Generalization: x is a y Librarian is a library member

What is a Design Class Diagram?

seeks to represent how a system will be implemented in an object-oriented programming language. All of the necessary objects are modeled to help design the architecture of the software classes before programming starts.

drawing DCDs: attributes (optional)

should include all fields of the object attributes (fields, instance variables) visibility name : type [count] = default_value Underline static attributes derived attribute: not stored, but can be computed from other attribute values attribute example: - balance : double = 0.00 + public # protected - private (default) / derived

What determines the direction and order of messages in SSD?

the only interactions that are included are those between the actor and the system. statements are chronologically ordered

How do SDs translate into workable code?

they show how classes interact with each other in certain use cases. It shows method calls, which class calls methods, and the order they are called in

Functional Requirements

things that the product must be able to do (ex. Take username and password as input, keep track of player's score), the activities that the system must perform

Non-functional requirements

things that the product still needs, but that won't actually impact how it functions (ex. security, cost, accuracy, efficiency etc), Constraints on the services or functions offered by the system such as timing constraints, constraints on the development process, standards, etc.

What is a pull request? What are the advantages of using a pull request?

tool where you aggregate branch changes and request that the changes be merged to another branch Allows for control by team leader etc

git push

update the remote repo with all the changes youve added and committed

diagramming SDs: Return message

used to indicate that the message receiver is done processing the message and is returning control over to the message caller.

unit tests

validate the smallest components of system, ensuring that they handle known input and output correctly

Aggregations

x has many ys Library has several librarians

Directed association

What are the 4 pillars of OOPS?

1. Abstraction 2. Encapsulation 3. Inheritance 4. Polymorphism

Constraints in UML*

???

Parameter visibility

B is a parameter of a method in A Parameter visibility from A to B exists when B is passed as a parameter to a method in class A. • When the makeLineItem message is sent to a Sale instance, a ProductDescription instance is passed as a parameter. Within the scope of the makeLineItem method, the Sale has parameter visibility to a ProductDescription. • Relatively temporary visibility because it persists only within the scope of the method. • Second most common form of visibility in OO systems • It is common to transform parameter visibility into attribute visibility.

Attribute Visibility

B is an attribute of A Attribute visibility from A to B exists when B is an attribute of A. • in a Java class definition for Register, a Register instance has attribute visibility to a ProductCatalog, since it ProductCatalog is an attribute (Java instance variable) of the Register. • Relatively permanent visibility because it persists as long as A and B exist • Most common form of visibility in OO systems

Global Visibility

B is globally visible Global visibility from A to B exists when B is global to A. • B is visible to anyone all the time • ex. static final MY_GLOBAL • Least common form of visibility bc of issues with encapsulation and data integrity in OOP • The preferred method to achieve global visibility is to use the Singleton pattern.

DCD lines: class generalization

Class: solid line, black arrow

Why should we use Version Control?

Coordinates work between multiple developers, allows you to track and revert changes

Acceptance testing

Customer validated tests

What is Test Driven Development (TDD)?

begin by writing a test that fails, then move on to creating the actual production code, and see the test pass, and continue on to either add functionality, refactor your code, or to create another failing test.

What are the differences between Object-Oriented Analysis and Object-Oriented Design?

design considers the specific constraints of technology but analysis is more abstract

What is a System Sequence Diagram? How does it relate to use cases, actors, and system events?
