Briefing

This is a website for dorm desk workers that my team for 6.813 created. We are hoping to simplify and standardize the desk worker interface so that it is easier and more efficient to use. I'm going to give you a series of tasks that a desk worker would be expected to perform during their shift. Please use the website to complete the tasks.

Tasks

1. login to the website using the following login information:

username: student

password: student

2. Check in the following package:

From:

Amazon Inc.

100 Amazon Way

Seattle, WA 12345

To:

Alyssa Hacker

Room 123

MIT Simmons Hall

229 Vassar Street

Cambridge, MA 02139

The dorm you are working at sorts packages according to the first letter of the recipient's last name as follows:

A-H : bin 1

I-P : bin 2

Q-Z : bin 3

3. Oops! As it turns out the package you just checked in was supposed to be for Ben Bitdiddle--not Alyssa. Fix the entry in the database.

4. Alyssa Hacker wants to borrow the vacuum cleaner. Check it out for her.

5. Ben Bitdiddle has arrived for his package. Check it out for him.

6. The bathroom in the lobby is supposed to be painted on Monday but the painters just called and said they can't make it until Tuesday. Make sure the other deskworkers know about this change.

7. Play around with the interface.

8. Logout
