[Building Sakai] turnitin2 and assignments

[Steven Githens]

Hi again,

According to my correspondence with Turnitin, the major change with the 
Turnitin2 release in September is a "Common Viewer" for looking at 
Originality Reports, GradeMarks, and PeerMarks.  The existing API calls 
that give us URL's for popping open Originality Reports would be updated 
on their side with any changes that are required to the URLs.

They also said the Turnitin 2 release doesn't include any new API 
additions and that the existing signatures should all be the same.  Of 
course, we should definitely test this on our side.  Actually, I started 
resurrecting the testrunner [1] yesterday, with one of the major goals 
being to have some integration tests for Turnitin integration that can 
be run at any time from a started up Sakai instance, and maybe put on a 
quartz job so they run once a day, since the servers are out of our control.

I'm also checking to see if they have a dev/preview testing server that 
we can test on before the Turnitin2 release.

Cheers,
Steve

Sort of like the test harness, but there is a Sakai Tool/GUI so you can 
schedule and run tests at any time over and over again.
