Scenario

Task

Imagine you are a music director, Lana, and you wish to upload some albums to the digital library via the KaJaM! interface

Open KaJaM! and log into the system

You have downloaded 2 albums onto your computer: Starmarker.zip and KaJaM.zip and wish to import them to the library

Import Starmarker.zip and KaJaM.zip into the digital library

While KaJaM.zip is importing, you wish to preview Before approving the KaJaM! album, you want to listen to one of the tracks

Preview (play) Play a track in the KaJaM! album

The track from the KaJaM! album sounds familiar, and you quickly realize you have already imported the album and don't need it again

Delete the currently importing entire KaJaM! album

The Starmarker.zip file finishes importing, and you wish to make sure all the track details are correct

Inspect track details*

You find incorrect and incomplete track details you want to fix

Edit track details to reflect the correct information**

You wish to approve the album to officially file it in the digital library

Approve the album

Before you leave, you wish to complete College Media Journal reporting for the month

Take a look at the reporting data in the digital library

You notice the reporting data is displaying "Pop", "Rock", "Jazz" and "Country" albums, all genres, but you want to look at only "Electronica"

Filter the reporting data to show only "Electronica"

Now all reporting data is on "Electronica" only, but it is not sorted by play count in the last month

Sort the reporting data by play count in the last month, in descending order

Everything looks good, but you still want to make adjustments to the reports based on physical CD play count before submitting them

Export the reporting data to Excel file format for further editing

Now that you are all done, you wish to go home

Done!

Implemented Parts of the Prototype

...

  1. The contents of the "All Uploads" tab is not a part of our scenario, or our design (it's more focused on managing uploaded music, rather than importing new music). As such, it has not been implemented at this time.
  2. Album play count information on the "Reporting" tab is retrieved from mock contents in a "fake" database table rather than live population from some source, since this information comes from the playback application at WMBR, which is separate from our application that focuses on importing only.
