Java Programming Fundamentals - Assessment

It's time to see how much you learned about Java and Object-Oriented Programming.

Part 1: Understanding the StudentGen project

1. Download the source code and import the project using IntelliJ Idea or any other IDE you prefer.
2. Understand the project structure:

• Packages
• Classes
• Functionality

3. Run and test the project to get a deeper understanding of how it works (remember the persistence mindset!).
4. You will be working on the StudentService class, the Student class, the PrinterHelper class, and the Main class.

Part 2: Implementing the Student and StudentService missing features

1. Open the Student class (src/com/generation/model/Student.java) and implement the following methods:

 public void enrollToCourse( Course course )
 {
     //TODO implement this method
 }

 public boolean isAttendingCourse( String courseCode )
 {
     //TODO implement this method
     return false;
 }

2. Open the StudentService class (src/com/generation/service/StudentService.java) and implement the following methods:

    public void showSummary()
    {
        //TODO implement
    }

Hint: To show the summary use System.out.println() to print out to the console.

Part 3: Trying out your new functionality in the main method

1. Test the program to verify it works as expected:

• Create a new student.
• Enroll the student to a few courses.
• Show the students and courses summary and verify that data is correct.

Part 4: Handling exceptions

1. Register a new user providing a wrong date format.
2. Modify the createStudentMenu method of the PrinterHelper class so that it handles correctly the exception when a wrong date format is inserted by the user.
3. Catch the exception and show a proper message to the user.

Challenge Yourself

1. Write 2 Unit tests for the class StudentService
2. Write 2 Unit tests for the class CourseService
3. Remember that this will involve setting up your testing environment! (Refer to instructions shared in the student slack channel if you need them)
