Ideas for Contributing

for February 2, 2021

As we search through the open issues on TEAMMATES, we find that many issues are open but commented on and ignored. We plan to focus on these OR new issues.

For example, Chloe thinks this issue opened just three days ago could be a good one.

Sophia is interested in working on this issue with the "good first issue tag".

Daniel is interested in adding front-end test cases based on this list.

Christian also looked at the same issue as Sophia and commented on the appropriate issue to determine if this issue is a viable option. As mentioned, it looks like the pull request that had solved the problem had been rejected, since the branch was initiated by a previous contributor. The best way to ensure that this is fixed and works properly is to use the logic portion of the back end to determine if there is one question and display the proper form of the word based on the number of questions. This will be tested by adding one question, then adding one more to determine if the "Save Question" prompt changes when it should.

Ethan is interested in working on this issue. This issue has a low priority tag due to the fact that the issue revolves around how tables are sorted in the instructor view. This bug is due to one table sorting alphabetically and another sorting numerically which is causing inconsistency among the tables. This bug can be fixed by editing the code where it displays the tables to be sorted numerically as requested by the TEAMMATES pro contributors. A way to test this bug would be to run the application and test the instructors view a couple times to ensure that the tables sort numerically.
