Advanced Software Development Term 2 Labs

Overview

This repository contains all implementations for the tasks and activities from the practical labs of the Advanced Software Development module. The labs cover various aspects of software development, including GUI development, database integration, testing, and concurrency.

Contents

The repository includes solutions for the following weeks:

• Week 8: Introduction to GUI development using Python's Tkinter library. Activities include creating basic GUI components, handling user inputs, and designing a simple login form.
• Week 9: Working with databases using SQLite3 and MySQL in Python. Integration of GUI with database operations for CRUD functionality.
• Week 10: Implementation of the Model-View-Controller (MVC) design pattern in GUI applications. Database interaction improvements and introduction to MongoDB.
• Week 11: Unit testing using Python's unittest and pytest frameworks. Writing test cases for GUI and database functionalities.
• Week 12: Introduction to multithreading and multiprocessing in Python. Exploring parallel programming and its applications in software development.
