Review of GreenSmart 1.0

We are reviewing other groups projects again for our ICS 413 class. I was assigned to review GreenSmart's project. When I first visited their project site, I was very impressed with their home page. It looked very professional with the screen shot of their system, and also a good description of what the project accomplishes. They had good wiki's that explained what needed to be done to run the system as a client or as a developer.

I was not able to break their system as error messages were produced whenever there was bad input or there was no output. The only problem I had with the error message that I didn't like was that it said "Error:" for each error message. I would rather like to have seen something like "Invalid input, please only input integers." or something in the nature that tells the user what is wrong. This is the only negative I found with their program.

Looking at their actual java code, I could not tell that the program was written by more than one person. The code was easy to follow and I found nothing wrong with their documentation. I think that they could have setup two different packages, where one package was the wicket and another package has the wattdepot commands.
