Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Determine the requirements of building the script
   • Identify the main characteristics of scripting languages
   • Identify and use a framework, and integrated development environment (IDE), to build the script using the chosen scripting language
   • Identify the protocols and the object model used in the chosen scripting language
2. Design the script
   • Create pseudo code to describe the logic needed in the script
   • Review pseudo code for missing logic and error
3. Write the script
   • Translate pseudo code into scripts, incorporating the use of basic language elements
   • Create internal documentation in the script
   • Incorporate item manipulation using the chosen scripting language
   • Review, debug, and document the script

Performance Evidence
