Class CodeAssess

java.lang.Object

codeassess.CodeAssess

public class CodeAssess
extends java.lang.Object

This class is used to assess a given program by using an Assessor object. CodeAssess just automates the assessment by executing the appropriate methods of the assessor. CodeAssess internally uses a class loader to load the classes of the project. When these classes change, the refresh method can be used to update the current classes to reference the actual ones.
