Overview

The program will first show a login page for existing users to access their data.

• The login section handles invalid information* given by the users.
  • If the information given is verified, the program will redirect the user to the menu section.
  • Else, An alert will pop up.
• If the user is new, meaning that they will not have any credential on our database, they can register for a new credential.

  • The registration form takes 4 inputs:

    • Email
    • Username
    • Password
    • Retyped Password

  • The registration form also handles invalid information* given by the user.

    • If the input data verifies with the invalid information handling algorithm, an account will be created into our database.
    • The program will then redirect the user back to our login page.

The testing mechanism is really simple.

• You take a test
• The program generates a result from those 10 questions you answered
• Meanwhile, the program also writes your information back to the database
• The Back button inside the result page will return the user back to our menu page.

        

---

But Here's a Catch

When you answer those 10 questions, each question contains a specific score depending on which you choose, but ultimately, it comes down to 32 results, each result has its own unique id, you guessed it, its number - 1, the program will then match up to 4 people whose personality ids are in range of -2 and +2 to your current personality id.

Built Using

This project is built using the following tools:

1. Figma: used for prototyping the project.
2. Screen Builder: used for building the UI of the application.
3. JavaFX: along with screen builder, the application is built using JavaFX.
4. VS Code: Text Editor used while working on the project.
5. Github: used to host the project for team collaboration.

How are the results generated?

Our testing mechanism and results are based on 59 Seconds, a book by psychologist Professor Richard Wiseman

• Scoring
          

• OCEAN

Installation

Note

We suggest using VS Code for running the program and we will only provide help for this Editor. This installation is for windows users.

• Prerequisites:

  • Java SDK
  • JavaFX

• Creating Java Project in VS Code
  

Ctrl + Shift + P

• Referencing additional libraries
  • Select App.java
    
    
  • Select JAVA PROJECTS
    
    
  • Select "+" in the Referenced Libraries
    
    
  • Navigate to the javafx sdk libraries > lib and select all the jar files
    
    
• Cloning
  • Then, delete the src folder and clone this repository
    
    

  git clone https://github.com/freddyt18/Peronality-Test

• Initializing
  • Expand the Personality-Test folder, then expand the App folder
    
    
  • Select the App.java file
  • UPDATE: Don't forget to rename the parent folder (Personality-Test) back to "src", otherwise, your Editor might not be able to locate required path for the program
    
    
• Adding Path
  • Select Run > Add Configuration on the top menu
    
    
  • Add the module path
    

  "vmArgs": "--module-path \"path/to/javafx-sdk/lib\" --add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.fxml"

  
  
• Running the program
  • Select App.java and run the java
    
    
  • Boom! There you go.
    
    

References

• Invalid Information

When the user inputs a specific data, say a username for the login page, the data will be processed in its java controller file to see if the data is acceptable

• Database

We are trying to reduce the complexity of our program as much as possible. So, We decided not to use any database that requires a third party app (E.g XAMPP) or additional libraries to access the data
