Assignment 5 – Test Your Team Members' Tic-Tac-Toe Programs

Independent Quality Assurance through Validation and Verification, and particularly through testing, is a vitally important aspect of software development. At this stage of software development you receive crucial feedback on the behavior of your program. If your QA team is effective, they will catch critical bugs before you release software to your customer.

Task:

  • Step 1: Find the bitbucket repository URLs for all your team members. (As with Assignment 2, these are not posted publicly. A person with initiative in each team should start a group email to all team members; share your bitbucket repository on this thread.)
  • Step 2: Use the grading criteria in assignment 4 to asses your team members.
  • Step 3: Create a text file with your assessments, in the following format:

    authors_full_name <authors_email_address>|functionality_score|coding_standards_score|documentation_score|overall_score|notes


    In the text file you should have one assessment per line, and you should assess all your team members, for example:
    Ignatius Dev <dev1@pdx.edu>|31|16|13|7|a bit painful to compile on my platform and lacking documentation
    
Antiphone Dev <dev2@pdx.edu>|40|18|20|10|a near perfect assignment
    
…


    If the version you're evaluating was submitted late, put "[late *date*]" in the notes, e.g. "[late 2010-11-4]".
  • Step 4: Upload your text file to moodle when complete.

Notes:

  • Please use the author's name and email address, as it appears on their moodle profile.
  • If you submit your text file in the wrong format, you will not get full credit for this assignment. Please follow the instructions.
  • Ensure your comments are anonymous, such that we can give feedback to the author.
  • Do not spend a lot of time trying to get a program to work. Your performance is based on the feedback you provide, not your ability to get their code working.
  • Do not hesitate to ask questions. If you are confused about something, please post your question in the forum.
  • Ask the developer questions about their program if you have issues. Give them an opportunity to help you resolve an issue. Grade favorably if they are responsive and helpful.
