E1947. Refactoring quiz_questionnaire_controller.rb

This page provides a description of the Expertiza based OSS project.



About Expertiza

Expertiza is an open source project based on Ruby on Rails framework. Expertiza allows the instructor to create new assignments and customize new or existing assignments. It also allows the instructor to create a list of topics the students can sign up for. Students can form teams in Expertiza to work on various projects and assignments. Students can also peer review other students' submissions. Expertiza supports submission across various document types, including the URLs and wiki pages.

Problem Statement

The following tasks were accomplished in this project:

  • Rename the quiz_controller_controller.rb file such that it follows the coding standards
  • Rename methods by removing the '_quiz' because it's redundant
  • Add comments to methods and complex lines of code
  • Try to remove const_get method as it is unsafe reflection method
  • Simplify spec/controllers/quiz_questionnaire_controller_spec.rb
  • Try to fix issues from Code Climate

About Quiz Questionnaire Controller

This is a new controller, having recently been separated from questionnaires_controller.rb. It is used to allow students to take quizzes. The idea is that the author(s) of submitted work can write a quiz that is given to each reviewer before the reviewer is allowed to review the work. If the reviewer does badly on the quiz, then we know not to trust the review. It is also possible to set up an Expertiza assignment so that some participants just take the quiz and don’t review the work.
