Visual Studio Sensor Code Review

Our classmates did a review of our project: Visual Studio Sensor for Hackystat. This is the project page and the source package is available here.

In general, I am glad to see that they did not have much problem with installing the sensor. The main problem encountered is failure to build the system due to null reference to NUnit. This problem was addressed promptly by my group partner, Jared by posting a modified release.

Also, I am not surprised to see that one of the biggest problem encountered was creating another instance of Visual Studio. This was also the problem that hindered us from writing test cases for the sensor.

Based on the review, some of the sensor data now collected are apparently not useful and that is exactly what we would like to find out from the review. Apparently, some DevEvents such as CloseFile and OpenFile are not of much interests to them.
