  1. Recipe Repository Requirements Design Planning

  2. Requirements

  3. What We Are Building • A website for users to login and securely store their own personal recipes free of charge. • Users have ability to convert from standard/metric, decrease/increase recipes servings and print recipes • For a fee, users can join the recipe community. Share recipes with other members and exchange their opinions with each other.

  4. System Functions • The repository will have three different types of users. A free basic user, Premium users and Administrative users. • Basic and premium users must create a unique login to enter the website. • Free Basic Membership includes: • Access to their private recipes • Add new recipes • Convert units between metric and standard • Change ingredients measurements to change the serving size

  5. System Functions Cont’d… • Premium users will have all of the functionality of the free user and also will be able to: • Search through the other premium members recipes • Generate a grocery list for print out • Have ad-free access to the repository • Have the choice to make their recipes public or private • Administrative users, which will include site managers (webmaster) and those who help maintain the site, will also have the ability to: • Edit recipes • Maintain clarity and site standards • Remove erroneous entry information • Help edit and mange user accounts

  6. Stakeholders Those effected by the outcome of the project: • Professor, Clark Elliott • Members of Team Go • All potential members of the website.

  7. Requirements Structure • Functional Requirements • Fundamental System Functions • Viewing the repository (taken directly from document) • Repository will be supported on Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher, no other browser viewing will be supported or guaranteed. • The repository will be supported for desktop pc and laptop viewing only. No other media will be supported. • All Areas of the site will be managed in American English, no translation will be provided. • Access by the Free User • Access by the Premium User • Access by the Administrative User • Design • Errors/Exceptions

  8. Requirements Structure • Non-Functional Requirements • Platforms • Ruby on Rails • MySQL • Performance • 99.9% Availability • Reliability • Maintenance/Updates • Risk Assessment • Project Deadline is firm. No time for Scope Creep. No changes to the requirements unless PM feels it is critical to to run.

  9. Testing functionality of the site • Each page is linked and login is responsive • Randomly chosen test users will create a personal account. • Test 1 will verify that the usernames and passwords chosen are saved in the database by logging off and on again. • Test 2 will verify that duplicate names cannot be chosen. Appropriate error messages will guide them to correct the error. • The database will be tested to verify all queries can be completed. • Recipe sharing will be tested to make sure appropriate access is given to free, premium and administrative users. • ALL pages and links will be checked and guaranteed to be working.

  10. Testing usability of the site • Four users, representing varied experience, will test the navigation capability of the website. • Each user will be given navigation instructions and then a brief survey to comment on their experience. • Team Go will modify design based on user response.

  11. Wolf/Thieves Statements • Wolf pack included Syed, Sven and Anna. • Thieves included Joe and Syed. • Members read the document and provided in red type their comments and why. The comments were analyzed and discussion were held online and in person. • Editor: Anna, corrected all grammar, spelling errors. Ensured all states made sense and were consistent with group discussions.

  12. The Wolf’s Work • The document did not indicate any standards for the aesthetic design of the website. Team Go could simply provide text links one after another without proper instructions. • The document now includes a User Acceptance section, which states that drawings must be submitted by a deadline or else Team Go will use its discretion.

  13. The Thief’s Work • The original document stated we were to create a few users some of which were free, premium, administrator. Were there other users?….The client wanted more! • The document now reads “…three user types will be created. They are the basic user, the premium user, the administrative user…”

  16. Planning

  17. Planning Strategies • Tools that allow us the ability to deal with expected and unexpected events. • Timetables that help to keep track of tasks completed. • Meetings to remain aligned with the project.

  18. How Are We Planning? • Microsoft Project 2003 • Easily view both group and individual tasks • Shows critical paths and deadlines • Allows for easy re-planning • Yahoo Groups • Central access to vital team files • Individual Calendar • Message forum for group communication • Meetings • Physical meeting twice a week. • Face to face interaction

  19. Re-Planning • The Chief Planner had the responsibility of assigning due dates for tasks in such a way that emergency situations could cause an adjustment to the plan without affecting the major milestones. • We also agreed on regular communication through email, telephone and other mediums about the status of the task to be completed. • The use of our planning software gave the planner the ability to evaluate changes to the plan quickly when the due date of one of the task changed. • In the event that a task could not be completed the strategy to be followed included: • Team members are/were responsible for the specific task agreed to notify Planner and Project Manager about the current task delay as soon as possible. • Other individual in the group were asked and made themselves available to assist in getting the task done with the least delay as possible. Good News: Based on the slack of time that was initially given to most tasks, the final due date of the project was not changed.
