iP: Grading

Total: 20 marks

Implementation [10 marks]: Requirements to get full marks:

• Achieve more than 90% of all deliverables by the end.
  • Requirements marked as optional or if-applicable are not counted when calculating the percentage of deliverables.
  • When a requirement specifies a minimal version of it, simply reaching that minimal version of the requirement is enough for it to be counted for grading -- however, we recommend you to go beyond the minimal; the farther you go, the more practice you will get.
• The code quality meets the following conditions:
  • Reasonable use of OOP e.g., at least some use of inheritance, code divided into classes in a sensible way
  • No blatant violations of the coding standard
  • At least some errors are handled using exceptions
  • At least half of public methods/classes have javadoc comments
  • The code is neat e.g., no chunks of commented out code
  • Reasonable use of SLAP e.g., no very-long methods or deeply nested code
  • Has some JUnit tests

Project Management [5 marks]: To get full marks, you should achieve,

• Submit some deliverables in at least 4 out of the 5 iP weeks (i.e., week 2 - week 6)
• Follow other requirements specified (e.g., how to use Git/Github for each increment, do peer reviews) in at least 4 weeks

Documentation [5 marks]: To get full marks, you should achieve,

• The product web site and the user guide is reasonable (i.e., functional, not hard to read, covers all features, no major formatting errors in the published view).
