Lecture contents

Graduates know the essential elements of system-oriented design. They know the design method UML (Unified Modeling Language) with its most important diagrams (Use Case, Class, State and Sequence Diagram) and master the use in the course of a practical object-oriented system design. They are able to distinguish between functional and non-functional requirements and also define these.
Graduates know the principles of systematic software development. On the one hand technical, such as object orientation and structure, on the other hand organisational principles. They know the characteristics of software, the roles and tasks in software development, phases of software development (analysis, design, implementation, testing, maintenance), software development models as well as the problems of reusing existing software (software reuse) and aging software (refactoring).
Graduates know the basic thinking and procedures of software quality assurance. They are familiar with software testing methods (module tests and system tests) and know the effects of software errors and the problems of their detection as well as the "psychology of testing". They are able to apply the different test methods and know the phases of testing (definition of test cases, structure of the test environment, test execution and documentation). Furthermore, the students know metrics to be able to assess the quality of software.

Teaching methods

The course itself is structured like an agilely developed IT project. There is a backlog/collection of teaching chapters and these are prioritized by the students themselves, selected and ranked for implementation/elaboration and then worked on together with the lecturers. This allows agility to be experienced and understood at its core through the application of agile approaches.
