I have recently started my assignment and have a few general overview questions. My back ground is primarily in server side business objects (not data accessors- separate area).
1) Would it help to do some UML modeling of the objects before I begin implementation? I will probably do this either way because that is the way I am used to doing design.
2) Has anyone included their
unit test code with their assignment? Did anyone do unit tests?
3) What books have you used for references? I have those that I used for my
SCJP but would like to expand those. I particularly need a good swing reference as I have done very very little GUI work. Any good reference for data access would also be appreciated.
4) About how many hours total should I budget for starters? I would like to be able to finish my assignment by the end of September and have evenings and weekends to work on it.
Thanks in advance
Lisa
