  1. Through the CLI: enter the following command java -jar MastersOfRenaissance.jar gui;
  2. Through the .jar file: click on the file!

3. 🧑‍💻 Server

The server’s .jar file is hosted on a Linux machine (EC2 of Amazon AWS) and is permanently active. Anyone in possession of the client-side .jar file can automatically connect to the server.

The server’s .jar file has however been included in the folder /deliverables.

4. 🧪 Testing

The coverage of the Model is about 80% and 100% for the Controller. The untested methods are the various getters, setters and toString() functions.
