Abstract

The research focused on creating a mobile and web-based application to enable people to access reservation services
for the Gagga bus company. This shall help people avoid wasting time as they could plan their journey well without
risking missing a seat on a particular bus. Constant missing of buses travelling to distant places across East Africa
due to poor timing of the passengers was the major problem that led the researcher to conduct this project. The
researcher created the Traveller mobile application that would help in solving the problem of providing transport
services. In this project, the researcher used Waterfall Methodology, in this methodology, the researcher used
techniques such as Dataflow diagrams, UML Techniques and prototyping, to come up with the system requirements.
The requirements analysis, testing and modelling techniques such as Use cases, ER Diagrams and sequence
diagrams were used by researchers to model the functionality of the system. In the testing of the system, the
researcher used unit testing, system integration testing and usability testing. The researcher used Android as the
platform to develop the Mobile application and also researcher used Web application development tools and
languages such as PHP, My SQL, and Query to develop the web application.
