Gradle-based Java project for a Clock with Swing GUI

ClockSystem

This is a gradle-based Java project for a Clock with Swing GUI and JUnit5 unit tests. It has been created and used by Tom Mens for educational purposes at the University of Mons.

The application includes a watch, with timer, stopwatch and alarm functionality. Its implementation is based on a statechart, using the state and singleton design patterns.

Instructions

The application has been tested locally with Java 21 and Gradle 8.5 (on MacOS). To run it locally, download the latest release and run the following command-line instructions, assuming you have already gradle installed on your machine:

"gradle wrapper" (creates the necessary gradle wrapper files to be able to build the app with gradle).

"./gradlew build" (executes the generated wrapper to build and test the application; build should be successful, but will fail if some of the unit tests fail)

"./gradlew run" (executes the Java application by opening a graphical user interface you can interact with)
