• Given a car rental place is 25 miles from my location.
• When I input car rental places within 30 miles from my location in the search bar.
• Then I can find a car rental place that is 25 miles from my location.

1.2

• Given a Jeep Wrangler is available for rental.
• When I input "Jeep Wrangler" in the search bar.
• Then I can locate the nearby car rental with a Jeep Wrangler.

1.3

Requirement 2: Make Reservations

Scenarios:

• As a student looking for a car rental, once I find the car I would like to rent, I would like to make a reservation.

Dependencies:

• Students meet car rental companies' reservation policy.

Assumptions:

• Students are eligible to rent a car.
• Students have a driver's license.

Examples:

2.1

• Given I find a Jeep Wrangler that I would like to rent.

Class Diagram

Class Diagram Description

• The class diagram consists of the following classes:
  • Car.java: Represents a car available for rental, with attributes such as make, model, and year.
  • Customer.java: Represents a customer who can rent cars, with attributes like name, email, and contact number.
  • Rental.java: Represents a rental transaction, with attributes such as rental ID, rental dates, and associated car and customer.
  • Payment.java: Represents a payment made for a rental, with attributes like payment ID, amount, and payment status.
  • RentalService.java: Interface for managing car-rental-related operations, such as creating rentals, calculating rental charges, and processing payments.
  • CarService.java: Interface for managing renting-related operations, such as checking car availability, making reservations, and canceling bookings.
  • PaymentService.java: Interface for managing payment-related operations, such as processing payments, generating payment receipts, and handling refunds.
  • RentalServiceImpl.java: Interface for accessing and manipulating rental data in the persistence layer.
  • CarServiceImpl.java: Interface for accessing and manipulating car data in the persistence layer.
  • CustomerServiceImpl.java: Interface for accessing and manipulating customer data in the persistence layer.
• The classes in the diagram have relationships as follows:
  • Rental.java has a one-to-one association with Car.java, indicating that a rental is associated with a specific car.
  • Rental.java has a one-to-one association with Customer.java, indicating that a rental is associated with a specific customer.
  • Rental.java has a one-to-one association with Payment.java, indicating that a rental is associated with a specific payment.
  • The business layer interfaces (RentalService.java, CarService.java, PaymentService.java, and Customer Service.java) depend on the persistence layer interfaces (RentalServiceImpl.java, CarServiceImpl.java, RentalServiceImpl.java, and CustomerServiceImpl.java.).
  • The UI layer depends on the business layer interfaces (RentalService.java, CarService.java, PaymentService.java, and CustomerServiceImpl.java) for interaction and functionality.
