Software Engineering is a systematic approach to develop software. For developing Software, one has to have the knowledge of analysis, estimation, prototyping, planning, designing, testing and so on. Software Engineering includes: - Requirement analysis - Human factors - Functional specification - Software architecture - Design methods - Programming for reliability - Programming for maintainability - Team programming methods - Testing methods - Configuration management Software Engineering is the study and application of Engineering to design, development and maintenance of Software. The specification is a document that describes the behavior of the software system to be built. It contains the requirements model and domain model. The requirements model includes the functional and non-functional requirements. Functional requirements are also called capabilities. Non-functional requirements are also called constraints. Non-functional requirements include usability, comfort, security, user friendliness, reliability, performance of Software to the customer.

The book is related to the project planning activities in Software Engineering. Before starting the development of any software product, planning is required. This book reveals to plan the project with the help of the Software named "Project Libre". It also contains the designing techniques with the help of tool named "Rational Rose". After the completion of Software development is complete, Software testing is equally required to test whether the Software is works according to customer requirements or not. This book also have the template for test cases and the manual testing techniques.
