Inception :

A group project for COSC 340 - Software Engineering. A visual File Browser that will size icons by usage. Members include : Cody, Cara, Manny, Nathan, and Hayden. The construction phase will last 5 sprints with intermittent demos to Dr. Henley.

Elaboration:

  • Detailed requirements

    • Supports Mac, Windows, and Linux operating systems
    • Saves file usage counts
    • Pulls Icons through OS for files
    • Sizes Icons based on usage (large for more frequently used)
    • Different Visual Layouts
    • Use Cases???
    • Risks:
      • ■■Requirements risks:
        • Supporting different OS's may bring unforeseeable challenges.
      • ■■Technological Risks:
        • Memory usage for saving file counts
        • Resizing GUI with icons
      • ■■Skills Risks:
        • GUI N00bs
        • Soft Skills / Time management on a group project
        • Github / Subversion control
      • ■■Political Risks:
        • "Are there political forces that can get in the way and seriously affect your project?"

  • High-level analysis

    • How to deal with Technological Risks?
      • ■■"Pre Optimization is the root of all evil in programming" We can build prototypes and try out pieces of technology we are thinking of using
    • How to deal with Skills Risk?
      • ■■GUI training
      • ■■Maintaining code that is readable and Refactoring
      • ■■Comments and communication is key

  • Baseline architecture

  • Plan for construction

Construction :

"Scrum, the most popular agile framework in software development , is an iterative approach that has at its core the sprint — the scrum term for iteration. Scrum teams use inspection throughout an agile project to ensure that the team meets the goals of each part of the process."

Sprints every 2 weeks:

Sprint 1:

** CMD line working program**

  • Supports and handles multiple OS's
  • Saves file usage in dictionary, Can save path to file + usage in hashmap
  • Graveyard

Sprint 2:

** GUI Phase 1:**

  • Plum together Cmd program to Filebrowser GUI

Sprint 3:

** GUI Phase 2 & Layouts Phase 1:**

  • Icon resizing based on saved usage + some form of graphical layout

Sprint 4:

** Layouts Phase 2:**

  • Implementing better and more visual layouts

Sprint 5:

** Layouts Phase 3:**

  • Improving layouts

Transition :

  • Beta Testing
  • Performance tuning
  • User training
