Package net.commerce.zocalo.experiment Description

This package contains the classes that configure Zocalo to support experiments. The experimental subjects are represented by the interface ExperimentSubject, the abstract class AbstractSubject, Judge (which represents judges, who do not trade), and TradingSubject, the base class for Manipulator and Trader.

Session supports experimental sessions configured by reading a property file. PropertyHelper has support for reading property files, and PropertyKeywords defines tokens found in those files. SessionSingleton applies the Singleton pattern to Sessions, ensuring there is only one session object at a time.
