PROJECT: AddressBook - Level 4


-== Overview

AddressBook - Level 4 is a desktop address book application used for teaching Software Engineering principles. The user interacts with it using a CLI, and it has a GUI created with JavaFX. It is written in Java, and has about 10 kLoC.

Summary of contributions

  • Major enhancement: added the ability to undo/redo previous commands

    • What it does: allows the user to undo all previous commands one at a time. Preceding undo commands can be reversed by using the redo command.

    • Justification: This feature improves the product significantly because a user can make mistakes in commands and the app should provide a convenient way to rectify them.

    • Highlights: This enhancement affects existing commands and commands to be added in future. It required an in-depth analysis of design alternatives. The implementation too was challenging as it required changes to existing commands.

    • Credits: {mention here if you reused any code/ideas from elsewhere or if a third-party library is heavily used in the feature so that a reader can make a more accurate judgement of how much effort went into the feature}

  • Minor enhancement: added a history command that allows the user to navigate to previous commands using up/down keys.

  • Code contributed: [Functional code] [Test code] {give links to collated code files}

  • Other contributions:

    • Project management:

      • Managed releases v1.3 - v1.5rc (3 releases) on GitHub

    • Enhancements to existing features:

      • Updated the GUI color scheme (Pull requests #33, #34)

      • Wrote additional tests for existing features to increase coverage from 88% to 92% (Pull requests #36, #38)

    • Documentation:

      • Did cosmetic tweaks to existing contents of the User Guide: #14

    • Community:

      • PRs reviewed (with non-trivial review comments): #12, #32, #19, #42

      • Contributed to forum discussions (examples: 1, 2, 3, 4)

      • Reported bugs and suggestions for other teams in the class (examples: 1, 2, 3)

      • Some parts of the history feature I added was adopted by several other class mates (1, 2)

    • Tools:

      • Integrated a third party library (Natty) to the project (#42)

      • Integrated a new Github plugin (CircleCI) to the team repo
