Design system architecture including frontend, backend, and database layers.

Create database schema for users, roles, exams, questions, results, and logs.

Implement authentication and authorization using RBAC (Admin, Faculty, Student roles).

Develop secure login system with password hashing and session management.

Build modules for exam creation, question bank management, and scheduling.

Implement student dashboard for exam participation and result viewing.

Automate result calculation and score generation.

Restrict access to features based on assigned user roles and permissions.

Implement security measures to prevent unauthorized access and data manipulation.

Develop responsive user interface using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, or a suitable framework.

Integrate backend using Java / Python / PHP / Node.js as per curriculum requirements.

Maintain activity logs and audit trails for monitoring exam-related actions.

Perform unit testing, integration testing, and security testing.

Prepare documentation including ER diagrams, DFDs, test cases, and user manuals.

Deploy the project locally or on a cloud platform and present a demonstration.
