These computing and information-systems projects use isolated prototypes and synthetic records to evaluate a clearly bounded voting-system property.
A teaching prototype can test defined software rules and failure cases. It cannot establish the security, legal compliance or integrity of an actual public election.

This Computer Engineering final year project examines safe recovery from interrupted ballot submission in an isolated voting-system prototype through synthetic ballots submitted under repeatable local network-delay and connection-loss scenarios, with a defined comparison that can be adjusted to available access and supervisor guidance.

This Computer Science final year project examines role-based permissions for routine election administration in a synthetic voting application through fictional user accounts, roles and actions defined for a local application prototype, with a defined comparison that can be adjusted to available access and supervisor guidance.

This Information Systems final year project examines audit-log completeness for defined administrative actions in an isolated ballot-system prototype through synthetic administration events and generated system records, with a defined comparison that can be adjusted to available access and supervisor guidance.

This Computer Science final year project examines the clarity and accessibility of ballot navigation in a non-casting interface prototype through fictional ballot options and consenting adult usability participants who do not submit a real vote, with a defined comparison that can be adjusted to available access and supervisor guidance.

This Computer Science final year project examines enforcement of a one-vote rule in an electronic-voting teaching prototype through synthetic voter and ballot records created solely for repeatable software tests, with a defined comparison that can be adjusted to available access and supervisor guidance.
