DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF WEB BASED TASK MANAGEMENT SYSTEM USING AGILE PRINCIPLE

Abstract

The increasing complexity of organizational processes and the mass transition to remote and hybrid modes of work has created pressure on the necessity of efficient, scalable, and high-security systems to manage web-based tasks. This paper introduces the design and deployment of a web-based task management system designed under Agile principles with specific reference to Scrum system. An iterative, design-driven methodology was used, which included sprint cycles of work, constant stakeholder activity, embedded usability and security test during the work process. The system was designed as a three-layer system incorporating presentation, application, and data layer, and RESTful APIs were used to ensure the flow of information between frontend and backend parts. The 30 users were evaluated over a period of four weeks through three aspects of the system performance, user satisfaction, and efficiency of Agile development. The results of the performance tests revealed that the mean page load time was 1.8 seconds, task creation response time was 1.2 seconds, could support 120 concurrent users, and was available 99.2%. The results of user satisfaction indicated that more than 90 percent of the respondents agreed that the system enhanced productivity with equally high scores on ease of use and clarity. Agile efficiency measures were at 95 percent feature delivery rate, 4 percent post-deployment defection rate, and 12 successfully accommodated mid-project requirement changes on five finished sprints. It is established that Agile-based development, enhanced with the latest web technologies and user-focused design principles, delivers technically sound, flexible to changing user needs, and pegged to the actual world organizational needs systems. The research study helps to provide empirical data in favor of the expanded use of Agile structures in web-based software engineering and outlines the further research direction, such as the introduction of AI-based analytics, the introduction of new security measures, and the study over the long term.
