Abstract
Seaweed is a web-based economic game system that allows end users to design and deploy simple two-player economic games. To improve the usability of the system, we have created two new features. One: a monitoring interface that allows users to view the results of a game deployment in real time. Two: an automated testing feature that automatically generates play data for a game, so that the user can check that the results are correct. Challenges included condensing the data of multiple plays of a game into a readable format and modifying the computer player system to pit two computer players against each other in order to generate the test data.
