Exploring Collaborative Gamification in Software Testing Education

The new Verification and Validation (V&V) course includes sessions where students write tests for small Java programs. Previously, a thesis explored a gamification approach centered on competition, using a leaderboard to compare students’ scores. This thesis aims to explore alternative gamification methods focused on student collaboration and to compare their effectiveness with the competitive approach used in the past thesis.

This thesis is a continuation of our previous work with Thibaut Berg.
