Readme.txt
If you open your BlueJ project, there is an icon on the work area that looks like a sheet of paper.  This is the readme.txt file.  To edit this file, just double-click on it as you would a class.  It will open up in the editor.  To modify, just type, edit, delete as necessary.  There is a compile button at the top, but this file does not need to be compiled.  You can click the button, but nothing will happen.

Usually the README.TXT file contains an overview of the project including the title, purpose, version, how to start, author and user instructions.  For the labs in this course, this file will be used for a slightly different purpose.
  • The readme.txt file found in each project must be formatted as follows:

AUTHOR: (your name)

DATE: (date submitted)

GRADE NOW: (yes/no)

1.  What test cases are needed, and in what order?

        Each test case should be introduced with a heading, and then be described.  In the description detail the purpose of the test case, any parameters provided, etc.  For example, assume there is a test case to verify that the addition of two variables works correctly.  The name of the test case is testAddition().

Heading:  testAddition()
        This test case verifies that the addition of two variables works correctly.  Two positive numbers are added and the result is tested.  Next a positive and negative are added and the result tests.  Next, two negative numbers are added and the results tested.  The next three tests involve using the value 0 for the first number, then for the second number and finally for both numbers.  All results are tested.

2.  What did you not anticipate (e.g. time allocation, test cases, algorithms, methods)?

3.  What would you do differently next time?

Points will be deducted if the readme.txt file does not follow this format.
