Assignment brief Polly Pipe is a water sports provider and installer based in Braintree, England. They need you to design and implement a database that meets the data requirements. These necessities are defined in this scenario and below are samples of the paper records that the Polly Pipe preserves. Polly Pipe is focused in placing aquariums at business customers. Customers can request several installations, but each installation is tailor-made for a specific customer. Facilities are classified by type. One or more employees are assigned to each facility. Because these facilities are often very large, they can include carpenters and masons as well as water installers. The facilities use equipment such as aquariums, air pumps and thermostats. There can be multiple computers in a facility. Below are examples of paper records that Polly Pipe currently maintains.

Activity 3. Provide a suitable test plan to test the system against user and system requirements. provide relevant test cases for the database you have implemented. Assess how the selected test data can be used to improve the effectiveness of testing. Note:- Learner needs to give expected results in a tabular format and screenshots of the actual results with the conclusion Activity 3. Get independent feedback on your database solution from the non-technical users and some developers (use surveys, questioners, interviews or any other feedback collecting method) and make recommendations and suggestions for improvements in a separate conclusion/recommendations section.

Activity 4

Produce a technical documentation and a user guide for the developed database system. Suitable diagrams diagrams (Use case diagram, class diagram, flow charts, DFD level 0 and

  1. should be included in the technical documentation to show data movement in the system. Assess the developed database by suggesting future enhancements to ensure the effectiveness of the system. 13

Grading Criteria Achieved Feedback LO1 Use an appropriate design tool to design a relational database system for a substantial problem P1 Design a relational database system using appropriate design tools and techniques, containing at least four interrelated tables, with clear statements of user and system requirements. M1 Produce a comprehensive design for a fully functional system that includes interface and output designs, data validations and data normalization. D1 Evaluate the effectiveness of the design in relation to user and system requirements. LO2 Develop a fully functional relational database system, based on an existing system design 14

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

I would like to express deep appreciation and indebtedness to the following: Lecturer- Miss indumini, coordinators- Miss Madushi and Miss Sanjeewani for their endless support, kind and understanding spirit throughout the course. And I would like to thank esoft metro campus for the facilities provided to accomplish this project. 17

ER diagrams help explain the logical structure of a database before implementing the database system. ER model of Polly pipe database- Logical database

Database normalization

Normalization is the process of reorganizing data in a database. There are no data redundancy in a normalized database, data dependencies are logical and all data items are stored together. The first normal form (1NF) –  A table in which the intersection of every column and record contains only one value (no multiple values), for example in Instillation Management Form has multiple values so it is not in 1NF. To 1NF- The second normal form (2NF) –  A table that is in 1NF and every non-primary key column is fully functional dependent on the primary key. Example in this case, Facilitytype instaID, E.No, CID customerID CID, address, Cname employeenumber Ename, Etype equipmentType Equipment The third normal form (3NF) –  A table that is in 1NF and 2NF and in which non primary key column is transitively dependent on primary key. Example in this case, primary key customer ID has become the foreign key in installation table- 20 Installation Name and Address Oak House, 17 Wroxton Road, Hertfordshire, H5 667 Bayliss House, Orange Street, Kent, K7 988 Eaglestone Castle, Eaglestone, Kent 23 Sackville Street, Wilts.
