Objectives
This course aims to provide the student with insight of Software Engineering's concepts and specifically how to make Object Oriented Analysis and Design of a system. In the end the student must be able to:
1. Explain what Software Engineering is and what it is for;
2. Explain the similarities and differences between agile and traditional methodologies;
3. Understand and explain the basic features of the SCRUM framework;
4. Understand and explain the basic characteristics of Extreme Programming development methodology;
5. Understand and explain the main concepts and principles involved in software development;
6. Use the UML visual modeling language to model a system;
7. Use the Unified Process software development methodology in systems development;
8. Elaborate the Object-Oriented Analysis and Design of an application;
9. Understand and use basic software patterns, in systems' object oriented analisys and design;
10. Understand and explain what DevOps practices are and what they are for;
11. Understand and explain what it is and how to implement a Pipeline CI/CD.

Evaluation Methodology
Semester Term:
- Written Test (30%)
- Practical Project (70%).
Exam Normal Term:
- Test grade from Semester Term or Written Exam grade (30%)
- Practical Project (70%).
Recurso Term:
- Written Test (30%)
- Practical Project (70%).
Observation 1: Tests and Written exams minimum grade: 7 out of 20; Practical Project minimum grade: 10 out of 20.
Missing an evaluation component, at any given Term, implies the attribution of 0 (zero) value in that same component.
Observation 2: Students can be called to defend the Practical Work, if demanded by the lecturer. Missing the defense will result in zero (0) points out of 20 in this evaluation component and therefore failing the assessment period in question.
