Project-Based Software Engineering: An Object-Oriented Approach

Project-Based Software Engineering is the first textbook to provide hands-on process and practice in software engineering essentials for the beginner. The text presents steps through the software development life cycle and two running case studies that develop as the steps are presented. Running parallel to the process presentation and case studies, the book supports a semester-long software development project. This book is appropriate for a sophomore/junior level software engineering course and/or people teaching a hands-on project-based course in which giving students experience in project analysis, design implementation and testing is a primary goal.
