3 1. Tools (SW Development) Tools for managing large projects 8/6/20143 Doing large projects requires lots of planning, organizing, managing, … Various tools exist to assist you with Managing your product and organizing your data, code, … Managing your team and organizing your workflow, communication, … We only force you to use SVN for code management, and logbooks & meetings for team management. But you are welcome to look around and use more.

4 1. Tools (SW Development) Some pointers to related resources 8/6/20144 At UU (cf. links on course website): Blackboard for project management (group rooms, wikis, …) https://ict.science.uu.nl/index.php/Blackboard_%28NL%29 https://ict.science.uu.nl/index.php/Blackboard_%28NL%29 UniTeams for project space, wikis, etc. https://ict.science.uu.nl/index.php/UniTeams https://ict.science.uu.nl/index.php/UniTeams Projectspace voor studenten https://ict.science.uu.nl/index.php/Projectruimte https://ict.science.uu.nl/index.php/Projectruimte And more (see https://ict.science.uu.nl/index.php/Help:Inhoud)https://ict.science.uu.nl/index.php/Help:Inhoud Other (again, cf. links on course website): Google Code & Google Docs http://code.google.com & http://docs.google.com http://code.google.comhttp://docs.google.com

5 1. Tools (SW Development) A general comment 8/6/20145 Tools to support you can be as simple as some Post-Its (and a clever strategy to use them) http://martianflytrap.com/posts/290 Now: Abbey Games Second guest speaker for GT (more on this later)

6 1. Tools (SW Development) Code management – revision control 8/6/20146 Various tools exist to support the actual implementation & testing. We only force you to use one for revision control. Revision control (or version control) = the management of changes to documents, programs, and other information stored as computer files (from Wikipedia) ICA is very highly encouraged to use SVN (subversion), for GT, the usage of SVN is mandatory!

7 1. Tools (SW Development) SVN (subversion) 8/6/20147 Keeps all code in a repository. Allows you to checkout code to work on it. Enables you to commit and merge code.

8 1. Tools (SW Development) SVN (subversion) 8/6/20148 Requires an SVN server https://svn.science.uu.nl And a client, such as http://tortoisesvn.net Or a plugin, such as http://ankhsvn.open.collab.net

9 1. Tools (SW Development) SVN (subversion) 8/6/20149 To start, you have to create a repository on the server Login (with SolisID) on https://svn.science.uu.nl https://svn.science.uu.nl Select “create a new repository” Enter name and description, etc. Note for GT: the TA already created your repository!

10 2. Tool (SW Development) SVN (subversion) 8/6/201410 Once created, you can … Add users (with different rights) Get links to material (e.g. browse/checkout) See course site for links to online documentation and further info

11 1. Tools (SW Development) SVN (subversion) 8/6/201411 Local access (Windows), e.g. using Tortoise SVN http://tortoisesvn.net http://tortoisesvn.net Access via Windows Explorer (right mouse button) First time: select “commit to SVN” and enter data Terminology: “update”: from SVN to own machine “commit”: from own machine to Submit “add”: enters data to version control without submitting

12 1. Tools (SW Development) SVN (subversion) 8/6/201412 Alternative: use a Visual Studio Plugin, such as AnkhSVN http://ankhsvn.open.collab.net http://ankhsvn.open.collab.net

13 1. Tools (SW Development) SVN (subversion) 8/6/201413 The best tool is only as good as the people using it. Some SVN etiquette: Only commit code that compiles! You are part of a team. Don’t let others debug your code. Commit only material that you created yourself E.g. source code, documentation, essential content, … Commit no material that gets generated E.g. no executable, no PDF, … Why? SVN keeps everything! Executable can be too big (storage & server overload) There’s no need. Everyone can create it themselves.

14 1. Tools (SW Development) SVN (subversion) 8/6/201414 Usage for GT: Your TA already created it Two dates when you have to submit your code Midterm: check by TA Final: grading by TA Everything else is up to your tutor Usage for ICA: SVN usage is voluntary but highly recommended! TA can help you with setup, etc. TA also checks code (but not necessarily on SVN)

24 2. Tools (Additional Material) Website & Blog (only GT) 8/6/201424 Progress updates: what to post? From the course website (750 words as a rule of thumb): You can think of these topics (but not restricted to): Fun stuff to read Team building events Late night deadlines (with pizza and beer) Behind the scenes of a game developer Funny bugs Story behind the team name etc....etc.... Serious stuff to read a description of the class structure a description of how certain libraries or external software is used a description of an algorithm used in the game a description of the technology used etc....etc....

25 2. Tools (Additional Material) Website & Blog (only GT) 8/6/201425 Some tips & recommendations: Use the deadlines as milestones to show some project progress (e.g. first designs, screenshots, drafts, …) Motivate yourself by posting additional “fun stuff” in between Search the web for cool Blogger templates & styles Look for inspiration at existing blogs of real game companies, e.g. …

28 2. Tools (Additional Material) Flyer 8/6/201428 Should give information about your product/game Use one side of an A4 paper (it will also be used as sign for the demos) Again, find the right balance No pure advertisement No scientific paper Some general hints: Use website as template (save time as much as possible) MS Office tools work surprisingly well for this
