This paper reports on an ongoing software measurement experiment which has been set up to monitor and evaluate team based student projects building object-oriented software. In this experiment, students are building the same system, in two languages (Smalltalk and Eiffel). Our process, called the Software Assessment Through Ongoing Profile Sheets (SATOPS) is being used in a project management framework to provide (i) a more objective feedback to improve students' learning; (ii) a method for measuring their understanding for grading purposes; and (iii) an instrument for making software engineering metrics measurements. We argue that SATOPS is the basis for reproducible software engineering experiments in a university environment. 1 Introduction The need for a repeatable software process to improve the quality of the process and product has been well documented [6, 11, 14, 15, 18]. The process should: ffl Be monitored through a prescribed set of activities for assessing the development...
