Sharing test cases is NOT allowed

Some of you have asked the TA's if it is allowed to share test cases and scripts with each other. Dr. Patt thinks that making the test cases is an important part of this excercise and a required learning experience for all of you. Everyone should develop test cases individually and sharing is NOT allowed. The same applies to all the forthcoming labs.
