The Playtesting requirement at WPI as it currently stands is outdated, and does not address the problem that it was created for. It was intended to give MQP and graduate projects access to early testing. However, most projects do not get tested by the general student body and instead rely upon internal testing or friends. This proposal researches the intended effect of the playtesting requirement and the way it currently manifests and recommends improvements to the system.
