cst 438: week 6

This week, I learned the importance of system tests, and teamwork. 

As a team, we worked on system testing using Selenium and focused on end to end tests across the frontend, backend, and database. I learned that system tests are meant to verify how components work together, not individual functions like unit tests. We implemented the bottom 3 scenarios: student enrollment flow, entering enrollment grades, and student viewing assignments and grades. I also learned how important test data setup is, especially using data.sql and making sure tests are repeatable with random values where needed.

I also learned the importance of teamwork. We did pretty poorly on our first assignment. However, after coming together as a team, we figured out how we can make our working strategies even better, and got a great grade last week. We hope for similar results this week! We worked hard and it was very fulfilling working together.
