ANDROID BEAT-THE-QUIZ APPLICATION

Math quiz is application for Android devices. The purpose of the application is to encourage students in solving mathematical expressions. The application allows students a fun way to solve mathematical expressions. It is intended for students who loves to take challenges to calculate swiftly.

Tasks are divided into 10 levels by the type and difficulty level of mathematical operations. Each level is divided into 3 tasks of 10, 20 and 30 questions each.

User can select the level and the task of no. of question he wants to take.

Applications records the minimum time and maximum score of the user against each level corresponding to each section.

Introduction

Single Player feature : Single player game has a question and 4 multiple choice answers to a question of which only one is correct. User can press the option of his wish. If the option is correct then increments the score else it highlights the correct option and then moves to the next question. At the end it show the score of the game and if you scored more than the previous highest score the score is published against the level selection.

Two Player Feature : In this 2 player can play the game simultaneously sitting opposite to each other. In this feature screen is divided into two halves, both the screens are laterally inverted, thus half screen is showing question/answer to 1 player while other is showing to other player.. At the end it shows the final score to each player and gives a congratulation message to the winner.

Multiplayer Feature : This application also allows many users to play the Math’s Quiz simultaneously via challenging others. In this any player can host the server, and others can join via server by giving IP Address of Host Device. Notification comes to server when any client joins that server. Hence the Quiz is played simultaneously and at the end result is shown on each device.

SQLite (for database) : SQLite is an Open Source database. SQLite supports standard relational database features like SQL syntax, transactions and prepared statements.

Eclipse (for Android App Development) : Eclipse is a multi-language Integrated development environment (IDE) comprising a base workspace and an extensible plug system for customizing the environment. It is written mostly in Java.

Android SDK : The Android SDK provides you the API libraries and developer tools necessary to build, test, and debug apps for Android. If you're a new Android developer, we recommend you download the ADT Bundle to quickly start developing apps .

Testing Objectives

To ensure that during operation the system will perform as per specification.

To make sure that the system makes user requirement during operations.

Testing Principles

All tests should be traceable to user requirements. Tests should be planned long before testing begins.

Test Case Design

A rich variety of test case design methods have evolved for software. These methods provide the developer with a systematic approach to testing. Black-Box Testing White-Box Testing

Testing

Type of Test Comments/Explanations

Software Component

Requirements Testing

Since there is the use of Android and SQLite for database so need an android phone.

Android Phone

Unit Testing The whole project is divide in to many functionality. Hence all the units were individually tested. Some of the units are:

Regular Expression, String matching

Performance This Testing is applied on details searching which is providing search result.

Database searching

Type of Test Comments/Explanations

Software Component

Stress On retrieval of student details in database.

String Searching on database

Security Since in this Android application every user has unique id and password. So any unregistered person cannot see the details of any other person

KMP (Knuth Morris Pratt) Algorithm

Integration After the unit testing this testing is applied. All the units were Integrated and tested.

Regular Expression, String matching

After working on the Android Beat the quiz application we would like to conclude that most of the work in this Domain (Android) is currently worked upon by the Students .but still there are many things which are need to be addressed as which type of query should be choose as the Application or not. So basically by doing this project we are trying to focus the attention of Computer Science and Information Technology Students in this domain and urges them to work upon this domain as Big Companies like Google, Yahoo are hiring people which has the appropriate knowledge of Android and has contributed most of the time to this domain.

Conclusion

Android Beat-The-Quiz Application is very helpful for students to boost their mathematical skills.

This app can increase its domain from Mathematics to others like English Grammar, General Knowledge, etc.

In Multi Player feature record of quiz lapses as soon as server executes another command. This record can be saved on server mobile through SQLite Database or can be uploaded on cloud server for examining the performance of players.

Generic User Interface implemented by the inclusion of Voice User interface. Thus questions can be spoken by voice on the application.
