Discussion: Software Development Processes
You have been assigned to write the code and unit test a module which tries to identify two employee names in a company employee database which might actually be the same employee. Your module uses the following method:
1. If one name contains a middle name and the other contains a middle initial which is consistent with the middle name, the two might be the same;
2. If the two names differ by only one or two letters, they might be the same;
3. If one name has a suffix such as Junior or Jr. or Ph.D., and the other is identical except for not having a suffix or perhaps having a different suffix, the two names might be the same.
What unit testing methods would you use for this module? Why? Provide at least two possible unit tests for the module using each of the methods you have selected.
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
