My Personal Project

Project Name: Ninja - A to-do list application

• Tasks that each contains:

  • Tag
  • Description
  • Due date
  • Estimated completion time

• Things can do to to-do list:

  • Add
  • Remove
  • Clear
  • Search tasks by tag
  • Search tasks by dueDay period
  • Review all tasks
  • Save to-do list to file
  • Load to-do list from file

Who will use it?

- Anyone who have tasks to do and want to use tool to keep tracking their tasks. - Anyone who wants to focus on completing a task within its estimated completion time.

Why is this project of interest to me?

I really want to use a todo list that contains all these functions that I described above. Be a Ninja, estimate the completion time of a task and do it on time. Never look back what you have done, just remove it when you finish the task. However, I could not find one exist todo application with these functions. It is a good idea to give you work an estimate completion time in order to manage your task better.

User Stories:

- As a user, I want to be able to add a task to my todo list. - As a user, I want to be able to remove/delete a task to my todo list. - As a user, I want to be able to search tasks on my todo list by tag. - As a user, I want to be able to search tasks on my todo list by dueDay period. - As a user, I want to be able to view the list of tasks on my todo list.

• As a user, I want to be able to save my todo list to file.
• As a user, I want to be able to load my todo list from file.
• As a user, I want to be able to be remained before I quit the app that if I want to save my todolist or not.

Phase 4: Task 2

A representative sample of the events that occur when this program runs:

Wed Nov 24 23:02:37 PST 2021

Task was added to todo list.

Wed Nov 24 23:02:40 PST 2021

Task was added to todo list.

Wed Nov 24 23:02:42 PST 2021

Task was removed to todo list.

For Clear method, there is no log for "The todo list has been cleared" since I implemented this method at ui package, and we don't allow calling EventLog method outside the model package.

Phase 4: Task 3

If I have more time I will:

• make my project more robust, some implementations didn't use exception, for example for data addition, there is no exception to check if the input is in the correct form.
• improve the cohesion and coupling of my project.
• use more abstract class and method to eliminate the duplication of some code to make my code more precise.
