Entry requirements

Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Prerequisites

Students should be proficient in unit-level testing and software design principles and patterns. Students should also have basic proficiency in source code management tools and build tools for software. Students must be proficient in reading technical English texts.

 

Intended learning outcomes

After this course, students shall be able to:

  1. account for roles in large-scale development projects
  2. describe the organization, requirements and coding conventions of a large-scale development project
  3. use tools and methods appropriate for large-scale development projects
  4. analyze the utility of tools and methods for large-scale development within the context of a specific development project.

 

Course content

  • Module systems for large-scale software projects,
  • Communications in distributed development teams,
  • Techniques and tools for automated dependency management, testing and deployment of software, such as, for example, Maven, Jenkins and Docker.
  • Principles for distributed version control systems such as, for example, Git and Mercurial.
