Weekly Task List (to 2006-10-30)

Week starting (11/06/2006):

Carried from previous week:
1. Check with Aaron about the "if" statement in getSites method of the Logic class?
2. debug:template FK not save when start evaluation from ModifyTemplate page
3. Remove the Fall 2006 hyperlink from the Summary page.
4. Display of email template exceeds the table width (no wrap). We need to make it wrap. --- Solution: instead of <pre> tags replace all \n with <br>.
5. Disable all javascript validations from assign evaluation functionality to be consistent.
6. Make the test plan for first round of testing. Include the following: Create, Assign, No Validations, Only Instructor (no student or any admin).
BUGS
1. Not getting sites for a user who is not an admin.
2. Remove functionailty fails.
3. Deployment issue (MAJOR)---ONLY ON SERVER https://preprod.scholar.vt.edu/.
  1. Spring errors because of name conflicts.
  2. Out of memory errors...only on Lucy's Laptop- because of using old version of Sakai Braches.
  3. Oracle , MySql changes......remove the sql-type from HBM files.
  4. Question block is not available in preview.....movement of call to Update method in Bean.
  5. Assign part fails because "select from where ((sharing='private' )and(owner='kahuja' ))or(sharing='visible' )or(sharing='public' )" query gives java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00936: missing expression.....In DAO need to make EvalTemplate instead of Template.
  6. Cannot set values in Bean from producer...use (from Aaron's email) form.parameters.add.....etc.
4. start a new evaluation fails for both case when navigating from StartEval page to EvalSetting page
5. With the change from getEID to getId, the name of owner on the start evaluation page is wrong and Control panel
  1. create a new method to convert user unique ID to DiaplayName in logic
  2. change the owner display on StartEval page, ControlPanel page
6. On the Preview Eval Page, if you remove refresh several times...the order of items changes. Only on start evaluation page. This is because are getting template from database / DAO. then iterator through each item of the set--need to sort the set of items: bubble sort
7. Make instruction in Evaluation and description in Template as nullable,
8. Evaluation table : template_FK field now is allow nullable????
9. Bugs from OCS testing
  1. JIRA EVL-135 template_title_desc page text field max length
  2. resolve JIRA EVL-140 bug- preview link on TemplateModify page sometimes show summary page for preview "essay" case
  3. JIRA EVL-141 - dropdown menu(change ordering) on TemplateModify page some times fails
  4. JIRA EVL-134 - Buttons are cut off.
  5. JIRA EVL-138
  6. JIRA EVl-151 - Changing assigned courses - all courses unselected.
Little of hierarchy
1. For Create and Assign page you need to check the evaluation.create.eval and evaluation.assign.eval persmissions.
2. Also, note that student and instructor have different views in the preview eval page. That is information about 'who added this question' is visible to instructors and not to students. Thus, how do we know whether the person is a student or an instructor. We need to go to auth_api for this. See the code in RSF Plus class written by Aaron and method 'canWriteItem' where there is if-else construct. More details are:Call getGroups in AutzGroup class. Then from the group get the users who have access. This is a little fuzzy. You first need to create 4 roles (as below) from admin console and look up the code pointed above:
  1. Create template
  2. Assign template / evaluation
  3. Be evaluated
  4. Take eval.
ControlPanel Page:
1. html & producer.
2. get template list
3. get evaluation list

  4. Call the logic.findTemplate instead of EvaluationBean.findTemplate.
11. get response
