ABSTRACT
Social Networking - It's the way the 21st century communicates now. Social
networking is the grouping of individuals into specific groups, like small rural
communities or a neighborhood subdivision. Although social networking is possible in

person, especially in the workplace, universities, and high schools, it is most popular
online. This is because unlike most high schools, colleges, or workplaces, the internet is
filled with millions of individuals who are looking to meet other people.
Social network is the mapping and measuring of relationships and flows between
people, groups, organizations, computers, URLs, and other connected
information/knowledge entities. The nodes in the network are the people and groups
while the links show relationships or flows between the nodes. Social network provides
both a visual and a mathematical analysis of human relationships.
Social Networking Website project itself is a huge project comprising various
features like profile updating, friends list organization and various other application to
enhance the overall look and feel of the website. However, in this project I am basically
working on two essential feature or module ( PROFILE MANAGEMENT & FRIENDS
ORGANIZATION ).
PROFILE MANAGEMENT module maintain the profile of a user like name, like,
dislikes, hobbies, status etc.
FRIENDS ORGANIZATION module maintains the friend list, handles request and sends
request to the other user.
Profiles and Friends lists are two key features on social network sites. The third is
a public commenting feature ('Testimonials', 'Comments', 'The Wall'). This feature allows
individuals to comment on their Friends' profiles. These comments are displayed
prominently and visible for anyone who has access to that profile.

EXPRESSO

1. PROBLEM STATEMENT
We dene social network sites as web-based services that allow individuals to
construct a public or semi-public prole within a bounded system, articulate a list of
other users with whom they share a connection, and view and traverse their list of
connections and those made by others within the system. The nature and nomenclature of
these connections may vary from site to site. A social networking service is an online
service, platform, or site that focuses on facilitating the building of social
networks or social relations among people who, for example, share interests, activities,
backgrounds, or real-life connections.

2. WHY EXPRESSO?

The average person has five social media accounts and spends around 1 hour and

40 minutes browsing these networks every day

Wide range of audience
Not any India based popular social networking site

3. OBJECTIVE
Social networking sites are not only for you to communicate or interact with other
people globally but, this is also one effective way for business promotion. A lot of
business minded people these days are now doing business online and use these social
networking sites to respond to customer queries. It isn't just a social media site used to
socialize with your friends but also, represents a huge pool of information from day to
day living.

4. SCOPE

This system provides users to register their various types of profile like social,

personal, general, professional.

This system provides users to maintain their friend list ,send a message, images,

and data files to their friends.

The system provides user to upload the photos so that user can maintain own

album.
This system provides user to join the communities according to their scenario.

5. METHODOLOGY
Social network is the mapping and measuring of relationships and flows between
people, groups, organizations, computers, URLs, and other connected
information/knowledge entities. The nodes in the network are the people and groups

while the links show relationships or flows between the nodes. Social network provides
both a visual and a mathematical analysis of human relationships.
Social Networking Website project itself is a huge project comprising various features
like profile updating, friends list organization and various other application to enhance
the overall look and feel of the website. However, in this project I am basically working

8. TESTING
8.1 SYSTEM TESTING
System testing is the process of checking whether the developed system is
working according to the objective and requirement. All testing is to be conducted in
accordance to the test conditions specified earlier. This will ensure that the test coverage
meets the requirements and that testing is done in a systematic manner.

8.2 BLACK BOX TESTING

The method of Black Box Testing is used by the software engineer to derive the
required results of the test cases:
1. Black Box Testing alludes to test that are conducted at the software
interface.
2. A Black Box Test examines some fundamental aspect of a system with
little regard for the internal logic structure of the software.
3. A limited number of important logical paths can be selected and
exercised.
4. Important data structure can be probed for validity

8.3 WHITE BOX TESTING

White Box Testing is sometimes called Glass Box Testing. Using
White Box Testing methods the software engineer can derive the following test cases:
1. Guarantee that all independen t paths within a module have been
e x e r c i s e d a t l e a s t once.
2. Exercise all logical decisions on their true and false sides.
3. Execute all loops at their boundaries and within their operational bounds.
4. Exercise internal data structures to ensure the validity.

8.4 UNIT TESTING:

The unit testing is performed to test the validity of the individual units. This is
done in the coding phase with the interactive testing. Thus it itself constitutes a majority
of functionality test for each logical unit.
8.5 INTEGRITY TESTING:
When all the development of all the units or modules
i s c o m p l e t e d a n d integrated the integrity test phase is started. In this phase the
interface between t h e m o d u l e s a r e t e s t e d . T h i s p h a s e b a s i c a l l y v e r i f i e s
w h e t h e r i n t e r m o d u l e exchange of information and events are as per required

requirements. Plans and p r o c e d u r e s w e r e d e s i g n e d t o e n s u r e
t h a t a l l f u n c t i o n a l r e q u i r e m e n t s a r e satisfied. The software was alphatested. There are two goals in preparing test plans. Firstly, a properly detailed test plan
demonstrates that the program specifications are understood
c o m p l e t e l y. Secondly, the test plan is used during program testing to prove the
correctness of the program.

SOFTWARE REQUIREMENT SPECIFICATION

1. INTROUCTION
This document is prepared in order to determine a software requirement specification
for Facebook. Facebook is a social network on which people can add their friends, share
