There are 3 main modules covered in my tasks, which are, activity maintenance module, NFC and QR code maintenance module, and feature of Android App which are download map, show the path to destination location from user current location. This system is applied the Spiral model Approach as the methodology for development cycle. This approach is combination of waterfall and prototyping model. Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, Android Studio, Photoshop and MySQL are the tools used throughout the project. Test Case is one of the testing criteria used in the project. It acts as a checklist that helps to make sure all the functionalities is working fine.
