DigiExam Cross Platform Client : Cross platform client for digital assessment (English)
Abstract [sv]

DigiExam är ett Edtech företag med huvudfokus kring digital kunskapskontroll och som utvecklar en plattform för digitala prov. Fördelen med digital kunskapskontroll är att lärare kan minimera den tid det tar att skapa och administrera prov samt att elever får tillgång till verktyg som både kan underlätta och effektivisera deras skrivande. Digitala prov kräver någon form av mjukvara för att vara möjligt. I DigiExams fall så tillhandahölls till en början fyra klienter för fyra möjliga operativsystem för att göra prov. Två utav klienterna var säregna medan de resterande två baserades på samma kodbas. För att minimera utvecklingstiden men även utvecklingskostnaden så valde man att ta fram en så kallad cross platform-klient. Denna klient skulle göra det möjligt att ha stöd för fyra olika operativsystem men basera applikationen på samma kodbas. Arbetet visar att det är fullt möjligt att skapa cross platform-klienter som baseras på webbteknologi och som kan använda operativsystemets fulla potential.  Resultatet blev en applikation som implementerade samma funktionalitet som de tidigare Mac OSX och Windows-klienterna, men som baserades på samma källkod som iPad- och Chromebook-klienterna.

Abstract [en]

DigiExam is an Edtech company with main focus on digital assessment. The company develops a platform that enables schools to minimize administrative overhead for teachers and enables students to use tools to help and improve their writing during an exam. In order to be able to take a test on a computer or tablet, the student needs to have some kind of software installed for digital exams. DigiExam used to have four clients for four operative systems. Two of the clients were based on the same source code while the other two were unique which made implementation and maintenance of features unnecessarily costly and time consuming. To deal with these issues the company decided to develop a cross platform-client which enables the developers to use one base source code for all clients and operative systems. The cross platform client developed in this dissertation proves that it is possible to create an application based on web technology and that uses the operative systems full potential. This dissertation gives an example how a cross platform client can be developed and resulted in client for Mac OSX and Windows that shares the same base source code as the Chromebook and iOS clients.
