Retrospective

 

What did we do well?

  • Good communication in the team +

  • Get to understand details better

  • Moving from BigTest to RTL tests

  • RTL migration is finished for 2 modules

  • UC testing is finished, feedback is pretty good, only few issues were detected

  • Officially UC is merger to master and available at all environments

  • Issue with access to EBSCO resources is resolved

  • Sufficient progress with development around duplication of MARC bib records

  • Get understanding of data import work

  • Have good progress with Import of MARC authority feature

  • 2 modules completely migrated to Spring and have some plans for future migrations

 

What should we have done better?

  • RTL tests bring more complexity and additional code refactoring to eHoldings

  • Spring improvements will be part of team work

  • No assistance with Spring from other team
