Chapter 17. Development
17.1. Methodology Overview
The diagram below explains the overall structure of the OptaPlanner source code:
The development philosophy includes:
- Reuse: The examples are reused as integration tests, stress tests and demo's. The documentation images are reused as slides.
- Consistent terminology: Each example has a class
App(executable class),Dao(Data Access Object) andPanel(swing UI). - Consistent structure: Each example has the same packages:
domain,persistence,app,solverandswingui. - Real world usefulness: Every feature is used in an example. Most examples are real world use cases with real world constraints, often with real world data.
- Automated testing: There are unit tests, integration tests and stress tests. The test coverage is high.
- Fail fast with an understandable error message: Invalid states are checked as early as possible.
