Need for assignments requirment bug

[johnbenedictyan]

Bug Report:

What Happened:

• Since the purpose of the application is a desktop app made for teachers, teaching assistants(TA) and professors for managing contacts of each other. There could be instances whereby the module has no assignments.
• As such the requirement for at least one assignment whose weightage must be equal to 100% could be considered overzealous input validation

Team's Response

The addAssignments command can be used to add other assessments such as Midterms, Finals, Projects, etc. I don't think there exists a module that does not have any graded components, because in that case, there will be no way for the student to receive a grade for the module.

Also there is absolutely no need to add any assignments. ABSOLUTELY REQUIRED fields are name, address, phone, etc... Basically the fields inputted when adding a person

This was an actual consideration by our team, whether or not to make assignment adding compulsory. We decided against it and therefore the addAssignments command is separate. Assignments can be added (or not added) to students after the students are added.

Therefore, we don't see this as a bug at all.
