The Definition of Done (DoD) is a shared agreement within the development team that outlines the criteria a user story or task must meet to be considered complete. Adhering to this ensures consistent quality, facilitates smooth collaboration, and maintains the integrity of our software products.


1. Code Quality

  • Code Coverage

    • New code must have a coverage of 80% or greater unless explicitly noted otherwise in the story's acceptance criteria.

  • Static Code Analysis

    • All reported code smellssecurity vulnerabilities, and lint errors identified by SonarCloud and other CI pipeline tools must be fixed before merging code to the master branch.

    • There should be no code smells or security issues should be reported by SonarCloud upon merging.

  • Code uniformity


2. Pull Requests (PRs)

  • PR Descriptions

    • Every PR should include a detailed description with:

      • Purpose: The intent and objectives of the changes.

      • Approach: The methodology and reasoning behind the implementation.

      • Open Issues: Any unresolved questions or potential problems.

  • Approval Requirements

    • A minimum of two developers must approve each PR.

    • At least one approver must be a team lead or architect.


3. Testing

  • Unit Tests

    • All new functionality must be covered by unit tests to meet the required code coverage.

  • Integration Tests

    • Integration tests should be created if applicable.

  • Performance Tests

    • Performance tests should be developed if relevant to the changes.

  • Testing Environments

    • For developer testing, use the Kitfox Dev Rancher Environment.

    • For QA testing, use the Kitfox Testing Rancher Environment.


4. Documentation

  • User Documentation

    • Update all relevant user and deployment documentation, including scripts and packaging instructions.

  • Configuration and Build Scripts

    • All configuration filesDocker files, and build scripts must be updated and tested to reflect changes.

  • Personal Data Disclosure

    • The personal data disclosure form must be updated as needed to comply with data handling policies.


5. User Story Workflow

  • Jira Workflow Columns

    • Todo

    • Blocked/Questionable

    • In Progress

    • In Code Review

    • In Deployment

    • In QA

    • In PO Review

    • Done

  • Status Transitions

    • Todo: User stories are placed here when ready to be picked up. The user story is estimated and has a “Fix Version”.

    • Blocked/Questionable: Move the story here if some impediments or uncertainties need resolution.

    • In Progress: Move the story to In Progress when development begins.

    • In Code Review: After development is complete and a PR is ready, move the story to In Code Review. If it is a bug, the RCA field should be fulfilled by the developer.

    • In Deployment: Once the code has been merged and is being deployed to the Kitfox Dev Rancher Environment for developer testing, move the story to In Deployment.

    • In QA: After deployment to the Kitfox Testing Environment, and when the QA team begins testing, move the story to In QA.

    • In PO Review: Once QA has verified the story and it's ready for Product Owner (PO) review, move the story to In PO Review.

    • Done: Move the story to Done after the PO has accepted the story and there are no critical issues remaining.

  • Acceptance Criteria

    • All acceptance criteria outlined in the user story must be fully met.

  • Critical Bugs

    • Ensure there are no open critical bugs associated with the user story before moving it to Done.


6. Bug Tracking

  • Critical Bugs

    • Address all critical bugs associated with the user story before closure.


7. Demos

  • Demo Environment

    • All features eligible for demonstration should be demoed from the shared Kitfox Testing Environment.

  • Team Presentation

    • The story must be presented to the team during a demo session.

    • The Product Owner (PO) moves the story to Done if there are no critical issues.


8. Spikes / Proof of Concepts (PoCs)

  • Documentation

    • Document all spike findings on the wiki and present them to the team.

    • Place PoC findings in the team's space on Confluence.

  • Code Accessibility

    • Check PoC code into GitHub to make it accessible to the entire team.

  • Follow-up Actions

    • Create user stories to implement or formalize the preferred approach or solution, if applicable.

  • Acceptance and Recording

    • The PO, and the architects team if necessary, are responsible for accepting the PoC.
