Chapter 6 How to work with controllers and routing
Introduction to the SportsPro web application
The SportsPro Technical Support website is for the technical support department of SportsPro, a software
development company that develops software for sports leagues. The purpose of the website is to track
technical support services calls (referred to as incidents) in a database that also stores information about
the company’s customers, software products, and technicians. The web application supports two primary
types of users. First, it lets administrators manage the products, technicians, customers, and incidents that
are in the database. Second, it lets technicians update incidents that have been assigned to them.
Note: by the time you complete all the user stories for this case, you will have created a relatively realistic
web app that you can use as an example and pattern for creating your final web application project for this
class. Each assignment in building this web application is set up to be like a user story (or series of user
stories) and is organized to be aligned with the chapters in the textbook. The first number in each
assignment refers to the chapter in the book that relates to the assignment. You will need to read each
corresponding chapter in the textbook to prepare for completing the assignment. The ERD for the
TechSupport database that will be used with the SportsPro application is provided below. You will not need
to create the model classes for creating the database, they are provided for you in the starter app.
