EXPERT TRACKING AND MAINTENANCE SYSTEM


EVALUATION

This chapter discusses the evaluation of the prototype system that has been developed for the project. The aim of this evaluation is to see the level of functionality and operability of the system. The prototype system will be evaluated for accuracy, correctness, illustration, security and portability.

6.1 System Requirement Testing and Results

The system was tested using two web browsers, which are Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 and Netscape Navigator 4.0. All the tests were carried out by stand-alone personal computers, which operate under Windows2000 and network computer under the web environment. The testing and its result are exhibited on Table 6.1.
