GB 2.5 Import Grades

Allows faculty to download a pre-formatted spreadsheet with students and all currently entered assignments and grades so the instructor can grade offline.
Reference the annotated wireframe specification pages 66-70.

Setup
You'll need at least one gradebook item already set up in Gradebook to run this test properly. It is desirable to have some graded items and some ungraded items for this test.

Steps

  1. Select Import Grades from the gradebook navigation. Verify that the onscreen version matches the documentation , page 66 - except that the document page name Import Spreadesheet (IM-1) is not online. Report andy differences.
  2. Select the Download Spreadsheet Template
    link and verify that you can successfully download the .csv file.
  3. Verify that the students, gradebook items, and grades in the spreadsheet accurately reflect your current gradebook.
  4. Enter and/or change student grades for some of the items. Save the modified spreadsheet as a .csv file.
  5. Take a snapshoot of your current grades from Roster or an individual gradebook item screen so that you can compare grade changes. Follow the import instructions and import your spreadsheet.
  6. Verify that you now see the Verify Gradebook Import screen as displayed in the documentation, page 69 - except that the content matches your course and the document page name Verify Import (IM-2) is not online.
  7. Select the Back button and verify you are returned to the Import Grades screen.
  8. Re-import the spreadsheet and select OK. Verify that you are returned to the Import Grades screen and that you see the message:
    "Your spreadsheet has imported successfully."
  9. Verify that grades are entered/changed as specified.
  10. Repeat this process but save the spreadsheet as an .xls file, such as faculty might do by mistake. Verify that you receive the error notification:
    "The file you are trying to import is not in the expected format. Please use the Download Spreadsheet Template link to export the file and try again."
  11. Repeat the process but modify the spreadsheet by changing a student id or adding a student who is not currently in the course. Verify that you receive the error notification:
    "Alert: The following student ID's are not associated with participants in this site:",
    a new line listing those students, and then on a new line,
    "To continue, you must first add this participant to the site or remove the participant from the file."
