Expected: We should be able to add assignments to a particular tutorial class or person.

Actual: We can only add assignments for specific person for now, which does not make sense as if my class have 30 people I have to type 30 times and mark 30 times. which defeat the purpose of the product scope of increasing productivity, as compared to I just use Excel.

Team's Response

There is a command to add assignment by tutorial group given by addatg.

As for the marking of an assignment 30 times, I believe all applications would suffer from this since everyone's grade is unique. In the rare case where students have similar grades, (e.g. assignments graded on a pass/fail basis) we could implement a feature to mark assignments en masse. However, as this is a rare exception, I believe this is not in scope.

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.Rejected]

Reason for disagreement: I think to respond to this issue as total rejection without any reason is unsubstantiated. While you can mark the whole class attendance as once, you should also see the reason why is this issue a valid feature flaw, simply because it is just not feasible to assign the assignment (or mark attendance) to everyone in the class one by one. This could be compared with an Excel file where you can simply set a row for assignment for everyone at once, I do not see why is this feature will be efficient in any way. In most case, it will impede the users' efficiency.
