The deliverables are:

  • SQL script
  • Entity object code
  • Hibernate configuration file
  • DAO and implementation code
  • Junit test case

Project 2 Scenario:

A library has a huge collection of CDs that require cataloging. The key resource must be given the means to retain every piece of required information inside a database that also provides a web front end. Your assignment is to design, implement, and deploy a part of this system. The final project objective is to create a web application that implements the catalog both easily and efficiently. Each CD entry needs the information:

  • Title
  • Artist(s)
  • Year of release
  • Number of tracks
  • Total playing time

Each CD entry must also be broken down into a track list containing the following data:

  • Title
  • Author(s)
  • Playing time

Goals of the project:

Start with the code and instructions for exercise 8.7. Take a copy of the DevOps project gathered from lesson 8, then change the file names from Monitoring to Library. You’re only expected to create the web’s front end. The data manager can develop a hard-coded CD list of instead of pulling them from their database.

The deliverables are:

  • The data manager Java file
  • The library controller Java file
  • The JSP which displays the CD list
  • A screenshot of the web page showing the list of CDs

Project 3 Scenario:

You need a utility that changes integers into words. For example, the number 86 needs to be converted into “eighty-six”. Your objective in this project is to develop a function that modifies the numbers 1 through 999 into words. Should you have some spare time, you can go beyond 999, but don’t exceed 2 billion. You will develop the method using Test Driven Development (TDD). You will also require a standalone application that reads numbers from the keyboard and prints their proper value in words or the term “Invalid number”. The program should terminate if the user enters 0.

Finally, the whole application must be bundled as an executable jar file using Ant.

 Goals of the project in this DevOps engineer training in Chicago program:

  • Clone the repository and install Ant.
  • Git clone https://github.com/simplilearn-devops/devops-project-3
  • Curl -O http://apache.mindstudios.com//ant/binaries/apache-ant-1.10.0-bin.zip

  • Ins apache-ant-1.10.0 ant
  • Start the VNC server
  • On your local machine connect to the VNC server on port 5901
  • Open the Numbers project in Eclipse
  • Add the jar files in lib to the classpath
  • Develop the numbers to words application using TDD
  • Implement the main application to read numbers from the keyboard and print out the values
  • On the server navigate to the Numbers project
  • Run ant to build the project. The build will fail if the unit tests fail.
  • ~/ant/bin/ant dist
  • The results of the unit tests are in the report directory which got created
  • Run the application and try it out
  • java –j Numbers.jar

The deliverables are:

  • The unit test java file
  • The number of words Java file
  • The main application Java file
  • The test results file from the report directory
  • A screenshot of the application output after running it with a representative set of numbers
