We had a good first week and got a lot of coding done. However we got a little ahead of ourselves in the process. We began making a gui for hangman without thinking about what the next iteration is going to look like. One of the principals of xp is to not plan ahead for what your customer might want. So instead of continuing with the gui we are going to wait until we hear from our customer what they want . This week we will focus on making the stories more clear and to work on getting junit down so that we can do test first coding starting next week.
hey all,
I threw on the latest version of the game, it works now without resizing, who new in the main method you need to call pack() as the last thing. Anyways I used git for the latest commit, really just to test it out, since it's plain and simple, and there are tons of tutorials around on how to use it. We can change this later if you guys want, I just figured we'd better throw something on there, since the eclipse subversion didn't pan out.... read more

you may see nothing when it is run initially, however you need only re-size the frame and it will display correctly. I am looking into ways to fix this but I think it is an issue with eclipse.
Anyways I will work on integrating the display box soon, and we will sort out the final logic after that. ... read more
On Friday we had our first group meeting, that I thought was quite successful. We came to a few important conclusions. First, that we have two strong programmers in our group, and two strong testers. Second that everyone would like to learn both sides of the process. Since this is an easy program to code it will be a good learning experience for those that haven't done much coding. So in terms of organization we are going to split up into two groups, one programmer and one tester so they can teach each other a little about the other side. ... read more
Hey All,
The v1.0 user stories have been updated, they are expected to be done by 9/12/13.
I haven't assigned anything yet, but when each step is done please close the user story by editing the ticket.
We also must figure out how to commit the code using either mercurial or github, I would prefer learning mercurial since we seem to have the time. I will post how to do so here when I figure it out
