The task is to design and develop a prototype for one of the features of an application which tracks the performance of the players.  The Application features a game with a number of levels; on successful completion of a level, a player moves to the next level. Players can register directly with the app itself or by supplying identification information from one of a number of linked social media apps. Player data is stored in a single file either as delimited text format or object file. Player details are    Id, Player Name, Image Filename, Current Level, Number of Attempts at Current Level, and, Total Points earned. For social media players the social media app name and identifier are stored. Requirements Develop a project with console menu-driven application. The project should contain a controller class with stubs for methods implementing the requirements listed below:  1. Load player performance information from a specified file into a players collection implemented using a repository 2. Add a new player with default values for current level, attempts and points and remove a player from the list. 3. List all players in ascending order of overall points earned 4. Update a player's performance data after an attempt at a level – overall points earned should be updated. On successful completion of a level the player should move to the next level and attempts returned to 0; otherwise, number of attempts should be incremented 5. Persist the collection to a specified file The project should contain a model, repository and controller classes. A sample delimited text file is additionally supplied. Development Approach An incremental development approach should be used with the following increments: Load players from      a file and list in name order This fulfils Requirement 1. To complete this increment you should: a. Complete the Player and SocialMediaPlayer classes with required fields and methods  b.

1. The task is to design and develop a prototype for one of the
features of an application which tracks the performance of the
players.
The Application features a game with a number of levels; on
successful completion of a level, a player moves to the next
level. Players can register directly with the app itself or by
supplying identification information from one of a number of
linked social media apps.
Player data is stored in a single file either as delimited text
format or object file. Player details are Id, Player Name,
Image Filename, Current Level, Number of Attempts at Current
Level, and, Total Points earned. For social media players the
social media app name and identifier are stored.
Requirements
Develop a project with console menu-driven application. The
project should contain a controller class with stubs for methods
implementing the requirements listed below:
1. Load player performance information from a specified file
into a players collection implemented using a repository
2. Add a new player with default values for current level,
attempts and points and remove a player from the list.
3. List all players in ascending order of overall points earned
4. Update a player's performance data after an attempt at a level
– overall points earned should be updated. On successful
completion of a level the player should move to the next level

2. and attempts returned to 0; otherwise, number of attempts
should be incremented
5. Persist the collection to a specified file
The project should contain a model, repository and controller
classes. A sample delimited text file is additionally supplied.
Development Approach
An incremental development approach should be used with the
following increments:
Load players from a file and list in name order
This fulfils Requirement 1. To complete this increment you
should:
a. Complete the
Player
and
SocialMediaPlayer
classes with required fields and methods
b. Decide on which type of collection you want the repository to
define and make the necessary adjustments to the
Repository
class and
RepositoryInterface
.
c. Partially complete the
GameController
class by completing the constructor method which creates a

3. new
Repository
object from a file if specified by the user
d. Partially complete the
GameController
class to implement the
listPlayers()
method
e. Create a
DAOImpl
class to realize the
DAOInterface
using either text file or object file format
f. Modify the
Repository
class to use the
DAOImpl
class to load players from a specified file
Document the results of your testing using screen snippets
copied into a Word document. Take a copy of the
GameController
class and name it as
GameController_Increment1.java
.
Add new Player
This fulfils Requirement 2. To complete this increment you
should:

4. a. Fully implement the
addPlayer()
method in the
GameController
class; this should ask the user for required details, create a new
Player
or
SocialMediaPlayer
object and add it to the
Repository
object.
Document the results of your testing using screen snippets
copied into a Word document. Take a copy of the
GameController
class and name it as
GameController_Increment2.java
.
3.
Remove a player from the list
This fulfils Requirement 2. To complete this increment you
should:
Enter the player id and remove player details from the list based
on the entered id.
List players in ascending order of points earned
This fulfils Requirement 3. To complete this increment you
should:

5. a. Complete the
listPlayersInPointsOrder()
method in the
GameController
class.
b. Ensure the
Player
class defines a method to compare players on the
totalPointsEarned
attribute.
Document the results of your testing using screen snippets
copied into a Word document. Take a copy of the
GameController
class and name it as
GameController_Increment3.java
.
Update Player Performance Data
This fulfils Requirement 4. To complete this increment you
should:
a. Complete the
updatePlayer()
method in the
GameController
class. The number of points earned in this attempt should be
entered and whether or not the level has been completed.
Document the results of your testing using screen snippets
copied into a Word document. Take a copy of the
GameController

6. class and name it as
GameController_Increment4.java
.
Persist player collection to a file
This fulfils Requirement 5. To complete this increment you
should:
a. Implement the
store()
method of the
DAOImpl
class if you have not already done so.
b. Implement any
necessary
toString(DELIMITER)
methods.
Document the results of your testing using screen snippets
copied into a Word document.
