Player
Explore how to build and test the Player class in Java for a basketball tournament project. Learn to use ArrayLists to manage player data, populate players, and print player details while practicing clean coding and testing techniques.
We'll cover the following...
Let’s start with the Player class.
As observed in the UML diagram, the Player class does not depend on other classes and can be constructed independently. Therefore, our starting point in the development process is to build this class.
As apparent, the code is not noteworthily complex. The only notable aspect is our use of an ArrayList in the Player and Main classes to compile the player roster.
Note: The
Mainclass acts as the client for thePlayerclass, serving as the environment for both constructing and testing the project. Always remember to test at each stage.
Let’s discuss the structure of this class.
Data members
The player class will have the following data members: ...
