Software Engineering Basic Principles and Best Practices Designed for introductory courses with a significant team project, this textbook presents concepts with real-life case studies and examples. Ravi Sethi (Author) 9781316511947, Cambridge University Press Hardback, published 8 December 2022 360 pages25.1 x 17.7 x 2.1 cm, 0.82 kg 'The focus on practice, with detailed examples on how to set up and run semester-long course projects, was extremely useful. This textbook covers exactly what is needed for the introduction to software engineering: the role and content of key areas, starting with the development process; going through requirements, architecture, testing, and ending with quality measurement. Everything is clearly articulated and grounded with timeless historical examples.' Audris Mockus, University of Tennessee Software engineering is as much about teamwork as it is about technology. This introductory textbook covers both. For courses featuring a team project, it offers tips and templates for aligning classroom concepts with the needs of the students' projects. Students will learn how software is developed in industry by adopting agile methods, discovering requirements, designing modular systems, selecting effective tests, and using metrics to track progress. The book also covers the 'why' behind the 'how-to', to prepare students for advances in industry practices. The chapters explore ways of eliciting what users really want, how clean architecture divides and conquers the inherent complexity of software systems, how test coverage is essential for detecting the inevitable defects in code, and much more. Ravi Sethi provides real-life case studies and examples to demonstrate practical applications of the concepts. Online resources include sample project materials for students, and lecture slides for instructors. Preface 1. Introduction 2. Software development processes 3. User requirements 4.
