 CHAPTER 3: SYSTEM ANALYSIS AND DESIGN

3.1 Introduction:
Job Procurement: Old and New Ways Job seeking usually involves different ways to look for jobs
such as through personal contacts, direct telephone calls to employers, job agency office, scanning
online job listings, etc. Before the Internet, became widely uses as a method of seeking jobs,
jobseekers spent a lots of time using various methods to look for job openings. Today, jobseekers
use online methods which are very convenient and save a lot of time. Galanaki lists the following
methods to be the traditional (old) ways for recruitment:

1) Employment recruitment agencies

2) Job fairs
3) Advertising in the mass media such as newspapers
4) Management Consultants
5) Advertisement in television and radio
6) Existing employee contacts
7) Schools colleges or universities students services department
8) Workers or professional referrals

In a bustling metropolis, a diverse group of individuals navigate life's complexities, weaving their
tales of love, loss, and redemption. Against the backdrop of urban chaos, their interconnected lives
unfold, revealing the beauty and struggles of human existence. Through chance encounters and
fateful decisions, they confront their inner demons and forge unlikely bonds that transcend barriers
of race, class, and culture. As the city pulses with energy, each character grapples with their own
desires and fears, seeking meaning in a world fraught with uncertainty. Through laughter and tears,
they discover the resilience of the human spirit, finding solace in the shared experiences that unite
them all. Amidst the chaos, they learn that in the end, it's the connections we make that define us
and give life its true purpose..

Importance of Job Portals:-

In the age of technology, the Internet has become the main source of information for jobseekers.
Large corporations, Institutions, and universities include information on career Prospects on their
websites. According to a survey, 70% of the workforce uses websites or portals on the Internet to

23
 Search for jobs in France. These websites or portals provide search engine to access
information on job opportunities.

3.2 Feasibility Study

3.2.1Technical Feasibility
Technical feasibility study is concerned with specifying equipment and software that will
successfully satisfy the user requirement; the technical needs of the system may vary
considerably.

The facility to produce outputs in a given time. Our project is a web based application
which is based on client-server based application. In this application every page as output
is render from server to client so it is necessary that the page should be rendered in time.
For this I have avoidedmore and more code in the page- load event.

3.2.2Economical Feasibility
Economical feasibility is the measure to determine the cost and benefit of the proposed
system. A project is economical feasible which is under the estimated cost for its
development. These benefitsand costs may be tangible or intangible. Job Portal is the cost-
effective project in which there is less possibility of intangible cost so there is no difficulty
to determine the cost of the project.

3.2.3 Operational Feasibility

Operation feasibility is used to check whether the project is operationally feasible or not.
Our project is mainly different from the other system because of its web-support feature.
So the measure for operational feasibility is something different from other system.
Generally theoperational feasibility is related to organization aspects.

 CHAPTER 4: IMPLEMENTATION
4.1 Technology Used

Using React,js , Javascript, Node.JS, HTML, CSS, Tailwind CSS, and MongoDB is a solid combination
for building a Online Job Portal. Here's how you can leverage each technology:

1. React Js :
We choose React.js for building the frontend of our portal application React.js is a popular
JavaScript library for building user interfaces known for its efficiency flexibility and component-
based architecture.it allows us to create dynamic and interactive UI components.
2. Node.js:
For the backend development of our application,we opted for Node.js. Node.js is a runtime
environment that allows us to run JavaScript on the server side. It provides a fast scalable,and event-
driven architecture.
3. HTML and CSS:
HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) is used to define the structure and content of web pages.
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is used to style and format the appearance of web pages.
You can use HTML and CSS to design the layout, styling, and visual elements of the user interface
for Job Portal Application.
4. TailwindCSS:
TailwindCSS is a front-end framework for building responsive and mobile-friendly web
applications. You can use TailwindCSS to quickly create consistent and visually appealing user
interfaces for the Job Portal Application.
TailwindCSS provides pre-designed components, such as grids, navigation bars, buttons, and forms,
that you can easily customize and integrate into your application.

5. MongoDB:
MongoDB is a NoSql database management that can be used to store and manage data for the Job
Portal Application.
You can use MongoDB to create databases, tables, and relationships to store information such as user
profiles, Admin, Employees_id, and Applied Job Requests.
You can use Mongoose to connect to MongoDB Compass from your React.js code and perform
database operations such as querying, inserting, updating, and deleting data.

 CHAPTER 5: TESTING

Testing is a crucial phase in the development of any software system, including a hospital governance
system. Here's how you can approach testing for a hospital governance system using the mentioned
technologies:
1. Unit Testing:
For Unit testing of our job portal application, we employ jest for testing React.js compoenents and
mocha for testing Node.js Backend Functionalities.
These testing frameworks allow us to verify the functionality of individuals unit of code in
isolation,ensuring robustness and reliability throughout the development process.

2. Integration Testing:
Test the interaction between different components of the system, such as the frontend
(HTML/CSS/TailwindCSS/ReactJS), backend (Node.js), and database (MongoDB).
Use integration testing frameworks such as Postman Assured for testing APIs.
Verify that data is passed correctly between components and that the system as a whole functions
correctly.

3. User Interface Testing:

Test the user interface of the system to ensure that it is intuitive, responsive, and user-friendly.
Use tools such as Selenium WebDriver or Cypress for automated UI testing to simulate user
interactions and verify the behavior of UI elements.
Test for accessibility, ensuring that the UI is usable by individuals with disabilities.

4. Database Testing:
For Database testing in Our job Portal application, we employ libraries such as jest with MongoDB
memory Server or Mocha with MongoDB Memory Server. These tools allow us to create an in-
memory MongoDB database instance during testing.
Test for proper data insertion, retrieval, updating, and deletion, as well as handling of constraints and
indexes.
5. Security Testing:
Test the system for security vulnerabilities, such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and
cross-site request forgery (CSRF).

43
Use tools such as OWASP ZAP or Burp Suite for automated security testing to identify and remediate
security issues.
Test for proper authentication, authorization, and data encryption to protect sensitive information.
6. Performance Testing:
Test the performance of the system under different load conditions to ensure scalability and
responsiveness.
Use tools such as Apache JMeter or Gatling for load testing to simulate multiple concurrent users and
measure system performance metrics.
Test for response times, throughput, resource utilization, and scalability of the system architecture.
7. Regression Testing:
Perform regression testing whenever changes are made to the system to ensure that existing functionality
is not affected.
Automate regression tests using testing frameworks and tools to quickly verify that new changes do not
introduce regressions.
Maintain a suite of regression tests that cover critical functionality and frequently used features of the
system.

8. User Acceptance Testing (UAT):

Involve stakeholders, including Portal administrators, Team members, and end users, in user acceptance
testing.
Conduct UAT sessions to validate that the system meets the requirements and expectations of
stakeholders.
Gather feedback from users and incorporate any necessary changes or enhancements before final deployment.
