My Final Year Project Experience

My Final Project

My final project was called Icarius - Let your Journey take flight. It was developed among with 5 of my peers as our equivalent Final Year Project for our client. The project's focus is to develop a Digital Marketing Platform that provides Gamified Objectives Content Creators. I was given the opportunity to be handling the Quality Assurance and the backend side of the application

Link to Code

As the project belongs to our client, links to the code are unavailable as we have signed a non-disclosure form for sharing the code to the public. However, we do have a wiki page of our project.

How was it built

Backend

  • Was developed in ASP.Net Core (C#) coupled with Azure App Services to allow APIs serviced to be used by the frontend
  • MSSQL and Azure blob Storage was used to store the information
  • Made use of GitKraken Pro to manage our application repository (Courtesy of Github Student Developer Pack) and adopted Gitflow process to minimise amount of conflicts during development ### Quality Assurance
  • Made use of NUnit framework to make sure that the backend code for writing test cases
  • Made use of Postman and Jenkins to automate the entire testing procedure of API calls

Additional Thoughts / Feelings / Stories

Throughout the entire process, it was a fulfilling experience as not only we are able to create an application that is able to be used in the market. But there were other things as a team that we would have to handle, such as able to deliver the client's expectations and also meeting companies that are currently in the same market and gather their feedback.

[Final Note]: Was a fulfilling experience and also able to develop something that is able to be used in the market.
