-

Part 7.0 - Create Students

  • Create a Students class.
    • The class should be a subclass of People of parameterized type Student.
    • The class should consume a variable number of Student objects upon construction and pass them to the super constructor.

-

Part 8.0 - Create Instructors

    • The class should consume a variable number of Instructor objects upon construction and pass them to the super constructor.

-

Part 9.0 - Create Classroom

  • Create a Classroom class.
    • The class should consume and set composite reference to an Instructors and Students object upon construction
    • The class should define a method hostLecture which makes use of a Teacher teacher, double numberOfHours parameter to host a lecture to the composite personList field in the students reference.

-

Part 10.0 - Creating Configuration classes

  • Each of the following Config classes should have a class-signature annotation of @Configuration
    • this annotation tells spring to scan for @Bean definitions within the scope of the class, and register them to the IOC Container for Inject and Autowire use later.
  • Classroom should define getters for each of its fields.

Developmental Notes

  • @Autowired

    • injects bean by type
    • can be used alone.
    • If is used alone, it will be wired by type
    • If more than one bean of same type are declared in the container @Autowired does not know which beans to use for injection.
  • @Qualifier

    • injects bean by specified name
    • supports fields, setter, constructors and multi-argument methods injection
    • together with @Autowired, clarifies which beans to be wired by specifying the bean name (wired by name)

-

Part 10.1 - Create StudentConfig

  • Note: The creation of this class will demonstrate an implementation of bean registration in Spring.
  • The class should define a method named currentStudents() which returns a Students representative of the current cohort of students.
    • the method should be annotated with @Bean(name = "students")
      • this ensures the Spring container registers the bean with the respective name.
      • a @Bean whose name attribute is not specified defaults to the name of the method it is annotating.
  • The class should define a bean named previousStudents() which returns a Students representative of the previous cohort of students.

-

Part 10.2 - Create InstructorsConfig

  • The class should define a bean named tcUsaInstructors() which returns an Instructors representative of the Tech Connect USA instructors.
  • The class should define a bean named tcUkInstructors() which returns an Instructors representative of the Tech Connect UK instructors.
  • The class should define a bean named instructors which returns all Instructors employed at ZipCodeWilmington
    • annotate this bean with @Primary
      • this ensures Spring will inject this bean in the case that an Autowire annotation is not supplied with a Qualifier annotation

-

Part 10.3 - Create ClassroomConfig

  • The class should define a bean named currentCohort() which returns a Classroom object whose dependencies are instructors and students
  • The class should define a bean named previousCohort() which returns an Classroom object whose dependencies are instructors and previousStudents
  • Note: it is sometimes useful (although not always necessary) to use the @DependsOn annotation to help the Spring framework and other readers of the code to understand what order beans should be executed.
    • @DependsOn({"instructors", "students"})

-

Part 11.0 - Test Config classes

  • Each of the following Test classes should be annotated with
    • @RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
      • enforces which strategy junit should use to run tests
    • @SpringBootTest
      • indicates that this class is a Spring Boot test class
      • provides support to scan for a ContextConfiguration that tells the test class how to load the ApplicationContext.
      • If no ContextConfiguration classes are specified as a parameter to the @SpringBootTest annotation, the default behavior is to load the ApplicationContext by scanning for a @SpringBootConfiguration annotation on a class in the package root.
  • Each bean can be injected into the class scope using @Autowired along with @Qualifier(name = "beanname")

-

Part 11.1 - Test StudentConfig Class

  • Create a TestStudentConfig class in the test package.
  • The class should ensure that each Bean in the StudentConfig class is configured as expected.
  • Tip: You can use the toString method to get a representation of the aggregate state of any People object.

-

Part 11.2 - Test InstructorConfig Class

  • Create a TestInstructorConfig class in the test package.
  • The class should ensure that each Bean in the TestInstructorConfig class is configured as expected.

-

Part 11.3 - Test ClassroomConfig Class

  • Create a TestClassroomConfig class in the test package.
  • The class should ensure that each Bean in the TestClassroomConfig class is configured as expected.

Part 11.0 - Using @Component

  • Annotating a class signature with @Component allows Spring to register the class as a Bean implicitly.

-

Part 11.1 - Create Alumni Class

  • Create an Alumni component which autowires Students of the previous cohort and Instructors
  • Create an executeBootcamp method which teaches each Student in the composite Students a totalNumberOfHours of 1200.
    • Annotate this method with @PostConstruct
      • denotes that this method must be executed before the class is put into an IoC container
  • Create a getter for each of the fields.

-

Part 11.2 - Test Alumni Class

  • Write a test class which ensures that each Student in the Alumni class has been taught 1200 hours upon injection of the Alumni dependency.
  • Ensure the numberOfHoursTaught has been evenly distributed amongst each of the instructors.

  • Tip: How to derive numberOfHoursTaught dynamically

    int numberOfInstructors = instructors.size();
    int numberOfStudents = students.size();
    double numberOfHoursToTeachEachStudent = 1200;
    double numberOfHoursToTeach = numberOfHoursToTeachEachStudent * numberOfStudents;
    double numberOfHoursPerInstructor = numberOfHoursToTeach / numberOfInstructors;
