Tuesday

Aula is a collective entryway from parents & guardians for day-care, schools & after school clubs.

Today we are going to model & develop a proof of concept of the classes and relationships in the Aula System.

• In the inception phase, the following vision and have been identified:

Aula is a web-based IT-system that enables parents & guardians to stay in contact with the day-care, school & after school clubs. It should enable communication by message-parsing, news sharing & administration by an institutional administrator

Interview facts

In a series of interviews the following facts were uncovered:

• Every day-care, school & after school club has a single administrator

  • They cannot be registred in the system without an administrator

• The administrator have all communication between parent/guardian and institution

• All messages have a subject and text field

• A parent/guardian can send a message to the institution

• The institution can send a message to a single parent/guardian or all

• The institution can publish news

Exercise:

• Identify classes, attributes & relationships from the description

  • Nouns are a good way to identify potential classes

  • Verbs are a good way of identifying methods/behaviour

• Draw a class-diagram based on the vision & description

  • Focus on the relationships between the classes

• Code a proof of concept based on the description & Class Diagram

  • It it not the focal area to write a "functional" system with a menu etc.

  • It is the focal area to implement the class diagram with their relationships

• Reverse-engineer the project in Intellij

  • Compare with the design-diagram
