try again, er something. February 17, 2005

This project aims to upgrade the current "try" system by streamlining submission, testing, grading, and script collection processes. The new system focuses on improving learning curve, assignment management, portability, and performance. Major use cases include actions for students, graders, and professors. The project follows a spiral process with key milestones, involving framework development, submissions and grading, testing, code completion, and finalization stages. Requirements are sourced from various documents and experiences, with bug tracking facilitated via Bugzilla. The design incorporates web-based technology, J2EE, distributed testing, and finalized database structures. The current status reveals challenges in schedule adherence but highlights strong requirements and design for future success.

  2. Agenda • Project description • Project plan • Risks • Requirements • Design • Current status • Domain experience

  3. Project Description • The current “try” system • submission, testing & grading • collection of scripts • New system goals • ease learning curve & assignment management • portability • performance

  4. Major Use Cases • Students • Submit assignments • View test results • View grades • Graders • View submitted files • View test results • Assign grades • Professors • Create assignments / activities / tests

  5. Process • Spiral • R1 – The Framework (January) • R2 – Submit & Grade (February) • R3 – Compile & Test (March) • R4 – Code Complete (April) • R5 – Gold (May) • Why • immediate feedback • ship even if slip

  6. Risks Key: 1 = low risk / impact 5 = high risk / impact

  7. Requirements - Elicitation • Sources: • project proposal • customer engagement • existing interface documents (XML) • old “try” system • manuals • sample lab • personal experience • Use cases • Preliminary database & architecture designs

  8. Requirements • All known system requirements documented • prioritized (1-3) • divided among iterations • tested against old “try” manuals • Data dictionary is critical to the system • Each requirement is independent & numbered • Bugzilla used to track bugs
