1.1
STATEMENT ABOUT THE PROBLEM
a. Introduction:
In the modern society, computers are no longer treated as stand-alone machines.
Instead, they are communicating to share resources and data through computer networks. The
Internet, which is a network of these networks, has been used in many applications since the
last century. One such application domain which has been growing very rapidly is ECommerce. Today, Internet can be used to run any business. This can be considered as a good
alternative to the traditional business systems because the Internet is used by a large number
of users today and so the business can be spread among a large number of people in a very
short time. Online shopping is a part of E-commerce in which users can buy and sell products
online. This is similar to a traditional shop in which users can choose their products and buy
them after payment. The only difference is that users need not have to go anywhere to buy the
product. He can buy the product at home by using a computer which is connected to the
Internet.
b. Problem Definition:
Online Shopping is a form of electronic commerce which allows consumers to directly
buy products or services from a seller over the Internet. An Online Shop is analogous to a
physical shop in which goods or services are sold. However, instead of setting up a physical
shop, the online shopping system uses a website to buy and sell products. The seller displays
the products on the website and the buyers select their desired products for buying. The buyer
includes all the selected products in a cart and proceeds for payment. There are several
options for payment. The buyer can choose either cash on delivery option or he/she can use
credit/debit card or netbanking facility for payment. After verification of the payment, the
physical product is sent to the buyer. If the product is received by the buyer, an
acknowledgement will be sent by him and the product database will be updated by the
administrator of the Online Shopping System. Also, the product database is updated whenever
a new product is included into the inventory.
1.2
WHY IS THE PARTICULAR TOPICCHOSEN?
Electronic commerce has become a major application of Internet today. A vast
majority of users prefer Internet to buy and sell products. The main reason behind this is that
users need not have to go to a physical shop for shopping. They can buy their required
products at home or office or anywhere using Internet. This results in the need of many online
shops. To manage these online shops efficiently, Online Shopping Systems are required.
There are thousands of Online shopping systems which have been running business over
Internet. However, some of these systems fail to perform the transactions effectively, some
others use lengthy processes for buying products that make customers getting bored, some
others fail to provide required security in cash payment, and so on. I have chosen this
particular topic so that I can build a system which allows customers to buy their required
products by following just some simple steps and their transaction is more secure and reliable.

1.3 METHODOLOGY
Brief Summary
The Online Shopping System will be a Web-based system. It allows Internet users to
buy products online. Users can choose products from various categories displayed in the web
site and place order to buy those products. The main advantage of this system is that it allows
the sellers to sell their products worldwide and also the buyers to buy their desired products at
home. The system will allow the buyers to buy products quickly and safely.
Top-down Design Approach
I will follow top-down design approach for building the proposed Online Shopping
System. Top-down design approach starts with a description of the overall system and usually
consists of a hierarchical structure which contains more detailed descriptions of the system at
each lower level. The lower level design details continue until further subdivision is no longer
possible, i.e., until the system is described in terms of its "atomic" parts.
Structured Analysis and Structured Design Methodology
I will follow structured analysis and design methodology in order to build the Online
Shopping System.
Structured Analysis and Design Technique (SADT) is a systems engineering and
software engineering methodology for describing systems as a hierarchy of functions. The
aim of the structured analysis activity is to transform a textual problem description into a
graphic model. More precisely structure analysis is used to carry out the top down
decomposition of the set of high-level functions depicted in the problem description and
represents them graphically.
In structured design all functions identified during structured analysis are mapped to a
module structure and is directly implemented using a conventional programming language.
Iterative Waterfall Model Methodology
The iterative waterfall methodology will be followed in order to develop the Online
Shopping System. In Iterative waterfall methodology we can come back to previous phases,
and can make the changes accordingly. It is very well suited for this system because this
model provides feedback paths from every phase to its preceding phases so that the errors
committed during a phase can be corrected as and when these are detected in a later phase of
development. We review the final output product at the end of the Software Development Life
Cycle.

1.4 OBJECTIVES AND SCOPE
Objectives:
The Online Shopping System enables the vendors to set up online shops, customers to
browse through the shops, and a System Administrator to approve or reject requests for
shopping items and maintain lists of shop categories.
Our Online Shopping System will use the Internet as the sole method for selling goods
to the customers. Shopping will be highly personalized and the system will provide more
security to perform online transactions than most competitors. Our system will showcase a
complete shopping experience in a small package.
Scope:
The scopes of the project are stated as followsInitial functional requirements will be:
Secure registration and profile management facilities for customers.
Browsing through the Shopping web site to see the items in each category of
products like Books and Media, Electronics items, Clothing and Footwear,
Home and Kitchen Appliances, Games, and many more.
Adequate searching mechanisms for easy and quick access to particular
products and services.
Creating a Shopping cart so that customers can shop „n‟ no. of items
simultaneously and checkout finally with the entire shopping carts.
Feedback mechanism, so that customers can give feedback for the product or
service which they have purchased.
Adequate payment mechanism and gateway for all popular credit cards,
cheques and other relevant payment options, as available from time to time.
Initial non-functional requirements will be:
Secure access of confidential data (user‟s details). SSL can be used.
24 x 7 availability.
Better component design to get better performance at peak time.
Flexible service based architecture for future extension.

1.8 TESTING TECHNOLOGIES
Testing Technologies that will be used are:
1) Unit Testing
2) Integration Testing
3) Validation Testing
4) White Box Testing
5) Compatibility Testing
6) Security Testing
1) Unit Testing:
Unit testing emphasizes the verification effort on the smallest unit of software design,
i.e. a software component or module. Unit testing is a dynamic method for verification, where
program is actually compiled and executed. Unit testing is performed in parallel with the
coding phase. In Unit testing, units or modules of the software are tested, not the whole
software.
2) Integration Testing:
In integration testing, a system consisting of different modules is tested for problems
arising from component interaction. Integration testing should be developed from system
specification.
3) Validation Testing:
It provides final assurances that software meets all functional, behavioural and
performance requirements.
4) White Box Testing:
In White Box Testing, knowing the internal working of the product, tests can be
conducted to ensure that internal operations are performed according to specification and all
internal components have been adequately exercised.
5) Compatibility Testing:
Compatibility of my online shopping system is very important testing aspect. The
different compatibility tests to be executed are:
Compatibility with different browsers.
Operating System Compatibility
Other System Software (Web server, networking tool, etc.) Compatibility
16 | P a g e
6) Performance testing:
The Online shopping system should sustain to heavy traffic load. Web performance
testing should include:
Load Testing
Stress Testing
Endurance Testing (Soak testing)
Configuration Testing
Isolation Testing
1.9 WHAT CONTRIBUTION THE PROJECT WOULD
MAKE?
The project will make a great contribution to the Internet users because the proposed
system provides facility to buy and sell products online without setting up a physical store. It
will allow the sellers to sell their products worldwide and the buyers to choose their required
items from a variety of items of different category. It will therefore be a good alternative to a
physical store. The different payment mechanisms will also facilitate the buyers to make their
payments securely and reliably.
1.10 LIMITATION
The limitation of the proposed system is as follows:
a. Users can provide wrong address for delivery of the product. This
cannot be evaluated by the system.
b. The specifications of the items displayed in the website may differ
from the actual specifications of the delivered item.
c. Delivery of the item to the customer may be delayed due to
shipping problem because it will not be managed by our Online
Shopping system.
d. The system will not generate any printed report for the transactions.
17 | P a g e
1.11 CONCLUSION
Online shopping is a popular trend in the modern society. Today, people often prefer to
buy products online from their home instead of going to a physical store. There are lots of
advantages of online shopping. The customer can check the specifications of a product very
carefully without anybody‟s interference. He can choose items of different categories and
different brands without going to different stores. Online shopping systems provide 24 X 7
shopping facility. The sellers also prefer to sell their products online because they can reach a
large number of customers at a short while. Online shopping systems also provide advertising
space for new products. Our Online shopping system will also try to provide all these
advantages of online shopping.

STATEMENT ABOUT THE PROBLEM
a. Introduction:
In the modern society, computers are no longer treated as stand-alone machines.
Instead, they are communicating to share resources and data through computer networks. The
Internet, which is a network of these networks, has been used in many applications since the
last century. One such application domain which has been growing very rapidly is ECommerce. Today, Internet can be used to run any business. This can be considered as a good
alternative to the traditional business systems because the Internet is used by a large number
of users today and so the business can be spread among a large number of people in a very
short time. Online shopping is a part of E-commerce in which users can buy and sell products
online. This is similar to a traditional shop in which users can choose their products and buy
them after payment. The only difference is that users need not have to go anywhere to buy the
product. He can buy the product at home by using a computer which is connected to the
Internet.
b. Problem Definition:
Online Shopping is a form of electronic commerce which allows consumers to directly
buy products or services from a seller over the Internet. An Online Shop is analogous to a
physical shop in which goods or services are sold. However, instead of setting up a physical
shop, the online shopping system uses a website to buy and sell products. The seller displays
the products on the website and the buyers select their desired products for buying. The buyer
includes all the selected products in a cart and proceeds for payment. There are several
options for payment. The buyer can choose either cash on delivery option or he/she can use
credit/debit card or netbanking facility for payment. After verification of the payment, the
physical product is sent to the buyer. If the product is received by the buyer, an
acknowledgement will be sent by him and the product database will be updated by the
administrator of the Online Shopping System. Also, the product database is updated whenever
a new product is included into the inventory.
1.2
WHY IS THE PARTICULAR TOPICCHOSEN?
Electronic commerce has become a major application of Internet today. A vast
majority of users prefer Internet to buy and sell products. The main reason behind this is that
users need not have to go to a physical shop for shopping. They can buy their required
products at home or office or anywhere using Internet. This results in the need of many online
shops. To manage these online shops efficiently, Online Shopping Systems are required.
There are thousands of Online shopping systems which have been running business over
Internet. However, some of these systems fail to perform the transactions effectively, some
others use lengthy processes for buying products that make customers getting bored, some
others fail to provide required security in cash payment, and so on. I have chosen this
particular topic so that I can build a system which allows customers to buy their required
products by following just some simple steps and their transaction is more secure and reliable.

1.3 METHODOLOGY
Brief Summary
The Online Shopping System will be a Web-based system. It allows Internet users to
buy products online. Users can choose products from various categories displayed in the web
site and place order to buy those products. The main advantage of this system is that it allows
the sellers to sell their products worldwide and also the buyers to buy their desired products at
home. The system will allow the buyers to buy products quickly and safely.
Top-down Design Approach
I will follow top-down design approach for building the proposed Online Shopping
System. Top-down design approach starts with a description of the overall system and usually
consists of a hierarchical structure which contains more detailed descriptions of the system at
each lower level. The lower level design details continue until further subdivision is no longer
possible, i.e., until the system is described in terms of its "atomic" parts.
Structured Analysis and Structured Design Methodology
I will follow structured analysis and design methodology in order to build the Online
Shopping System.
Structured Analysis and Design Technique (SADT) is a systems engineering and
software engineering methodology for describing systems as a hierarchy of functions. The
aim of the structured analysis activity is to transform a textual problem description into a
graphic model. More precisely structure analysis is used to carry out the top down
decomposition of the set of high-level functions depicted in the problem description and
represents them graphically.
In structured design all functions identified during structured analysis are mapped to a
module structure and is directly implemented using a conventional programming language.
Iterative Waterfall Model Methodology
The iterative waterfall methodology will be followed in order to develop the Online
Shopping System. In Iterative waterfall methodology we can come back to previous phases,
and can make the changes accordingly. It is very well suited for this system because this
model provides feedback paths from every phase to its preceding phases so that the errors
committed during a phase can be corrected as and when these are detected in a later phase of
development. We review the final output product at the end of the Software Development Life
Cycle.

1.4 OBJECTIVES AND SCOPE
Objectives:
The Online Shopping System enables the vendors to set up online shops, customers to
browse through the shops, and a System Administrator to approve or reject requests for
shopping items and maintain lists of shop categories.
Our Online Shopping System will use the Internet as the sole method for selling goods
to the customers. Shopping will be highly personalized and the system will provide more
security to perform online transactions than most competitors. Our system will showcase a
complete shopping experience in a small package.
Scope:
The scopes of the project are stated as followsInitial functional requirements will be:
Secure registration and profile management facilities for customers.
Browsing through the Shopping web site to see the items in each category of
products like Books and Media, Electronics items, Clothing and Footwear,
Home and Kitchen Appliances, Games, and many more.
Adequate searching mechanisms for easy and quick access to particular
products and services.
Creating a Shopping cart so that customers can shop „n‟ no. of items
simultaneously and checkout finally with the entire shopping carts.
Feedback mechanism, so that customers can give feedback for the product or
service which they have purchased.
Adequate payment mechanism and gateway for all popular credit cards,
cheques and other relevant payment options, as available from time to time.
Initial non-functional requirements will be:
Secure access of confidential data (user‟s details). SSL can be used.
24 x 7 availability.
Better component design to get better performance at peak time.
Flexible service based architecture for future extension.

1.8 TESTING TECHNOLOGIES
Testing Technologies that will be used are:
1) Unit Testing
2) Integration Testing
3) Validation Testing
4) White Box Testing
5) Compatibility Testing
6) Security Testing
1) Unit Testing:
Unit testing emphasizes the verification effort on the smallest unit of software design,
i.e. a software component or module. Unit testing is a dynamic method for verification, where
program is actually compiled and executed. Unit testing is performed in parallel with the
coding phase. In Unit testing, units or modules of the software are tested, not the whole
software.
2) Integration Testing:
In integration testing, a system consisting of different modules is tested for problems
arising from component interaction. Integration testing should be developed from system
specification.
3) Validation Testing:
It provides final assurances that software meets all functional, behavioural and
performance requirements.
4) White Box Testing:
In White Box Testing, knowing the internal working of the product, tests can be
conducted to ensure that internal operations are performed according to specification and all
internal components have been adequately exercised.
5) Compatibility Testing:
Compatibility of my online shopping system is very important testing aspect. The
different compatibility tests to be executed are:
Compatibility with different browsers.
Operating System Compatibility
Other System Software (Web server, networking tool, etc.) Compatibility
16 | P a g e
6) Performance testing:
The Online shopping system should sustain to heavy traffic load. Web performance
testing should include:
Load Testing
Stress Testing
Endurance Testing (Soak testing)
Configuration Testing
Isolation Testing
1.9 WHAT CONTRIBUTION THE PROJECT WOULD
MAKE?
The project will make a great contribution to the Internet users because the proposed
system provides facility to buy and sell products online without setting up a physical store. It
will allow the sellers to sell their products worldwide and the buyers to choose their required
items from a variety of items of different category. It will therefore be a good alternative to a
physical store. The different payment mechanisms will also facilitate the buyers to make their
payments securely and reliably.
1.10 LIMITATION
The limitation of the proposed system is as follows:
a. Users can provide wrong address for delivery of the product. This
cannot be evaluated by the system.
b. The specifications of the items displayed in the website may differ
from the actual specifications of the delivered item.
c. Delivery of the item to the customer may be delayed due to
shipping problem because it will not be managed by our Online
Shopping system.
d. The system will not generate any printed report for the transactions.

1.11 CONCLUSION
Online shopping is a popular trend in the modern society. Today, people often prefer to
buy products online from their home instead of going to a physical store. There are lots of
advantages of online shopping. The customer can check the specifications of a product very
carefully without anybody‟s interference. He can choose items of different categories and
different brands without going to different stores. Online shopping systems provide 24 X 7
shopping facility. The sellers also prefer to sell their products online because they can reach a
large number of customers at a short while. Online shopping systems also provide advertising
space for new products. Our Online shopping system will also try to provide all these
advantages of online shopping.
