Questions
Which syllabus is followed?
The BTEUP Diploma Computer Science & Engineering Semester 4 Software Engineering syllabus. Where your college syllabus differs, the centre follows your own syllabus.
Is this subject only theory?
Mostly theory, with diagrams (DFD, use case), test case writing and short numericals on COCOMO and cyclomatic complexity.
Will it help in the major project?
Yes. SRS, design diagrams and testing taught here are used directly in your Semester 6 project report.
