Test and explain the object model
See this course’s project requirements
An original library-room booking simulation using independent objects, invariants, composition and an event history.
Keep your working files in your own notebook or software. Save a private description, checklist, and work link in My Proof.
What to include
- A room-state contract with 10:00 mapped to 3.
- An independent-instance check with unchanged B.
- A rejection record with unchanged booking state.
- A composed booking trace with no event for an unknown room.
- A composition design note with responsibility boundaries.
- A tested booking model with independent state and honest rejection evidence.
Review and revise
Use these criteria to check your work and choose what to improve.
- The implementation or declared simulation follows the supplied contract and retains inspectable original inputs.
- Normal, boundary and rejected cases are recorded with expected versus observed results.
- The changed case has a correct explanation and does not rely on hidden state.
- The project includes source, outputs, instructions and honest tool, privacy and verification limits.

The idea in everyday life
Run objects.py, then add a successful B booking at 11:00 for 6 people and retry it.
Test both outcomes and preserved state. A rejection should not append a completion event, corrupt another room or change a valid earlier booking.
Test and explain the object model — original worked practice
Test both outcomes and preserved state. A rejection should not append a completion event, corrupt another room or change a valid earlier booking.
Run objects.py, then add a successful B booking at 11:00 for 6 people and retry it.
1. Step 1
Run the five supplied checks.
You should see: Baseline object checks pass.
This keeps the rule and its observable result together.
2. Step 2
Add the capacity-boundary B booking.
You should see: B gains 11:00→6 and events reaches 2.
This keeps the rule and its observable result together.
3. Step 3
Retry B’s same slot and inspect state.
You should see: The retry fails; B and event count stay unchanged.
This keeps the rule and its observable result together.
4. Step 4
Package the object diagram, code and state test table.
You should see: A tested booking model with independent state and honest rejection evidence.
This keeps the rule and its observable result together.
What to finish
A tested booking model with independent state and honest rejection evidence.
Watch for this
Testing only returned messages rather than checking that rejected operations leave all owned state unchanged.
How can I tell I understand it?
Explain and demonstrate the required distinction: Test both outcomes and preserved state. A rejection should not append a completion event, corrupt another room or change a valid earlier booking. Show a changed input and the expected result without weakening this contract.
