Retrospective
Personal highlights
- Seeing document uploads in action
- Boot strapping of environments
- File uploads and notes are great and help make the system work for real end users
- Document uploads are the best!
- Document uploads (again)
- Relaxing vacation!
What went well
- License amendments
- SearchAndSortQuery helped expedite license UI work
- Fast turnaround of wireframes from Gill Osguthorpe
- Notes seemed to go smoothly
- Willingness of developers to bring questions back to PO/UX team
What caused problems
- Development server infrastructure getting in the way of Peter Böhm
- File upload needed heavier lifting behind the scenes
- Grails bug identified
- toolkit workaround resulted
- Dates and timezones issues triggered more requirements clarifications
- Original designs for license amendments caused front-end challenges
- Took a while to debug a Tags display issue because of differences in browser zoom
Discussion Notes
Date / Timezone issues
- Going forward be clear to distinguish between date and date/time in requirements specifications
- ACTION: ERM scheduling a technical investigation spike in next sprint
Other
- Work pulling / allocation
- Sprint planning for initial priorities
- ERM Delivery Board (Backlog)
- #erm-developers
- #erm-updates fallen out of use - is this an issue?
- many using #erm-developers for when people need help
- not always clear if something isn't going to plan (exception flagging in #erm-updates)
- no great love for daily standups
