SENG302 Project 2017
Product: Racevision and Game-X
This year's project was inspired by the 35th staging of The America's Cup 2017. As a side note, Emirates Team New Zealand won by a score of 7 to 1 over Oracle Team USA (the defenders). Go Team New Zealand!
Student teams were asked to create an application that took real America's Cup data from a server and visualized it for various personas (including a novice and an expert). The America's Cup ran from 17-26 June 2017. By this time, all teams were able to complete many of the stories on the backlog. However, there was a surprise in store for the teams. We introduced a pivot, moving from a visualizer to a sailing game. This tested the agility and flexibility of the teams and the extensibility of their codebase.
The project was run using the Scrum framework with many of the XP processes. There were a few constraints, such as the language (Java), sourcecode control (Git), and a prioritised backlog. Towards the end of the year, teams were allowed to contribute significantly to the backlog. Some of the unique features of the products reflect this.
