7. Test and Documentation Plan White box tests by individual programmers Black box tests by programmer’s teammate Testing using FlexUnit and PUnit API Documentation Pop up tips for idle users Usability tests to evaluate effectiveness

8. Risks Risk Chance of Occurring ImpactPreventionReaction Flex and PHP might be hard to use together. LH Explore the documentation of how to integrate PHP code with Flex. Work together to share pertinent interface information. Steep learning curve for Flex and PHP. LM Read documentation. Use pair programming between experienced programmers and inexperienced programmers. UW’s DB is too big and confusing to use efficiently. MH Talk to Time Schedule DB Admins to get a better grasp of their DB. Import data into a schema that’s more easily understood by coders. Search algorithm for schedules has poor performance. ML Research algorithms. Keep the size of table entries small for faster queries. Improve external components of search algorithm. Too much information to present to the user at one time. MM Designing the UI to be simple and user friendly while providing sufficient information. Get customer feedback and determine what is confusing or overwhelming and explore ways to simplify the UI.
