Project title: Webapp for compiling/executing Eiffel programs with a selection of coding challenges illustrating Design by Contract and Mathmodels

Supervisor(email): Jonathan Ostroff (jonathan)

• Student Team
  • Gianluca Corvinelli (corv9)
  • Shangru Li (ioagnx)

Design and implement a webapp hosted on EECS servers which will provide the following services

• Provide students in EECS with powerful development tools and a Playground to test and debug Eiffel programs in a browser (see for example leetcode.com).
• Unit Testing along the lines of ESpec must be supported.
• Syntax and compile errors are reported in the browser in a clear fashion.
• Provide students with a carefully selected suite of Eiffel challenge questions that illustrate and test comprehension of Design by Contract and Mathmodels (see Modelling and Testing Requirements via Executable Abstract State Machines.
• Allow instructors to easily add new challenge problems to the base set.
• Provide a method for storing student scores for a set of problems selected by instructorsto be used in Labs as well as in Labtest mode.
• The system must be designed to support other languages (e.g. Python3 with type annotations).
• The system must be well-designed and maintainable by the EECS tech team.
