About LRR

LRR (Lab Report Repository) is an online software application for posting assignments, submitting assignments and marking (re-marking) assignments.

This software was originally developed by by Mahomed Nor, a graduate student in the Department of Computer Science at the Zhejiang Normal University, while he was taking a graduate course called Advanced Software Engineering (http://lanlab.org/course/2018f/se/homepage.html).

The LRR's project home page is at http://118.25.96.118/nor/homepage/index.html.

Mission

Our mission is to make the experience of submitting assignments great for tens of hundreds of students in the department of computer science at the Zhejiang Normal University (Jinhua City, Zhejiang Province).

Installation Instructions

Check file INSTALLATION.md (TBA) for details.

Current Status

This software has been actively used by students who took or are taking courses (Introduction to Software Engineering and Software Project Management) taught by Hui.

There are more than 200 student accounts created since its first launch in 2018.

A running instance of this software is at http://118.25.96.118/nor/

There are about 40 bugs (most being CRITICAL) that remain unresolved before LRR can hit its beta release. See the section The Bug Tracker for more detail. Currently, there are a few groups (formed by students who are taking Software Project Management) working on these bugs.

The Bug Tracker

We use Bugzilla to track LRR's bugs and feature requests.

Most bugs of this software are recorded on the bug tracker for LRR: http://118.25.96.118/bugzilla/describecomponents.cgi?product=Lab%20Report%20Repository%20%28nor%20houzi%29

TODO

• Receiving email for password resetting. Password resetting link is not always sent successfully.

• How assignements should be stored? Creating sub-directories on all student submissions course-code/semester/section-number. (/student-number/course-code/semester/section-number/assignement-title/submission.txt)

• Feature request. Editing the assignment title after uploading a new assignment (instructor).

• [SOLVED] A new user could not login immediately after sign up.

• A more complete list of TODO's is at http://lanlab.org/course/2020s/spm/decide-areas-for-improvement-review.html

How to Contribute

We welcome your participation in this project.

Your participation does not have to be in the form of contributing code. You could help us on ideas, suggestions, documentation, etc.

You need to be an invited member of Lan Laboratory before you can push your feature branch or bugfix branch to the central reops at https://github.com/lanlab-org

Send Hui (lanhui at zjnu.edu.cn) an email message including your GitHub account name so that he could invite you to be a member of Lan Laboratory.

As of March 31 2020, there are 30 members in Lan Laboratory (https://github.com/orgs/lanlab-org/people).

You will use the feature-branching workflow (see below) when interacting with the central repo. The main point of this workflow is that you work on a branch on your local drive, push that branch to the central repo, and create a Pull Request (i.e., Pull Me Request) at GitHub for other people to review your changes. When everything is OK, then someone could merge your changes to the master branch in the central repo.

I believe that code review at the Pull Request stage is important for both improving code quality and improving team quality.

The Feature-branching Workflow

We will use the feature-branching workflow for collaboration. The idea is that you make your own branch, work on it, and push this branch to the central repo for review.

Check the section The feature-branching workflow in the following link for more detail:

Communications Method

For real-time communication, check our IRC channel #lrr at irc.freenode.org. Check this link http://lanlab.org/course/2020s/spm/irc-instruction.txt for how to use IRC.

To submit bug reports or improvement ideas, please ask Hui [lanhui at zjnu.edu.cn] to open a Bugzilla account for you.
