Introduction

1.1 Purpose
The purpose of this document is to present a detailed description of the Software
Requirement Specification for the project, Online Bus Reservation System.

It will

explain the purpose and features of the system, the interfaces of the system, what the system
will do, the constraints under which it must operate and how the system will react to external
stimuli. This document is intended for both the stakeholders and the developers of the
system. All requirements for the system have been stated clearly in the document and this is
used to make sure that everyone related to the system directly or indirectly understands all
requirements stated in this document.
1.2 Scope
This SRS helps the client to understand the operations and functions of the online bus
reservation system.SRS actually establishes a basis for agreement between the
client and the supplier on what the software product will do.SRS also provides
validation of the final product.
This document covers the entire system and all its subparts. This system will be
designed to help the users who are in need of a bus. This system shall also help the
bus owners to rent their bus globally.

1.5 Overview
The remaining sections of this document are organized in the following manner.
The second chapter, General Description section, of this document gives an overview
of the functionality of the product. It describes the informal requirements and is used to
establish a context for the technical requirements specification in the next chapter. It should
also include general information regarding the factors that affect the final product and its
requirements.
The third chapter, Specific requirements includes, functional requirements, external
interface requirements, performance requirements, design constraints, attributes and other
requirements. Functional requirements, describe the purpose of each functional requirement,
