Overview   |   Test Set 1    |    Test Set 2    |    Test Set 3   |   Test Set 4

The scraper is simple but contains adequate functionality for the most part.  Progress reporting is excellent.  The buttons a poorly placed on a 1024 x 768 screen with 96 DPI font size.  After a scrape, the file location could not be copied into the clipboard, and results did not clear when I changed the semester (I could then no longer verify which semester's results I was viewing).

The scraper can run multiple copies of itself simultaneously.  This is ill-advised--there is ample chance that multiple scrapers running at once will encounter conflicts with file and database I/O.

 Grade: 91  - Please see the individual test sets for details about points lost.



  url

 
The above message occurs with a Url missing the last /.  The scraper then stopped with adequate messaging to that effect.

The above shows what happened when the network was disconnected during a scrape.  The message is a little unclear, but at least it's different from the message given for a bad URL.
