Enhancements Implemented

    • Implemented Rating class
      • Created the Rating class, one of the key components we are tracking with Coydir.
      • Use Case: Building blocks to track Employee Performance over time.
      • Justification: Tracking performance (talent development) is one important component of HRM.
    • Implemented rate feature
      • Created a RateCommand class to handle the logic (Refer to code here) and RateCommandParser class to handle the parsing of the user input (Refer to code here).
      • Use Case: User can add ratings for employees.
      • Justification: Rate the employee performance (1-5 integer rating scale).
      • Highlights: Multiple considerations such as ensuring that ratings are always sorted by the local date format (user modifies the JSON database).
    • Implemented Performance history graph feature
      • Created a performanceHistory Arraylist within the Person class to store all the past ratings of a particular employee (Refer to code here)
      • Created a Performance history graph line chart within the Personinfo class to chart the performance rating values of employees against time (Refer to code here)
      • Use Case: User can view the performance history of employees.
      • Justification: Observe the overall trend of employee performance and make talent development decisions.
      • Highlights: Display individual rating values beside each node, prevent multiple ratings per day, sort ratings by date.
