| WA1121 Web Application Development Workshop using WebSphere |
|
| The concept of the Java Project Workshop |
|
- Students are given a draft set of business and user requirements
- The instructors are available to role-play the project sponsor (project goals) and business user (business process info).
- Students will break into teams (3 per team?) to develop a high level design.
- Teams present the high level design to the instructors and class.
- Teams modify their high level designs based on comments; create a detailed design and test cases.
- Teams brief the detailed design and test cases to the instructors and class.
- Teams update the detailed design if needed, code their solution.
- Teams prepare and execute test cases for their solution.
- Teams demonstrate their solutions and test results to the instructors and class.
