Executive Summary

Overall Status

Sprint status is excellent. The Product team prioritized and completed the following themes and tasks for Sprint 129 comprising 38 points. These themes included - addressing technical debt, community support post release and design discussion beginning work for new feature development - Direct, Admin GUI and Testing gaps. During . The team also supported and participated in the CONNECT CCB to understand priorities and high level requirements from the federal partners.

A few tickets were added during the course of the sprint some support related tickets for VA, DoD and Triple-I install were moved out early due to additional time required for pre-requisites - infrastructure or related paper work. After the start of the sprint, the team pulled in additional tickets bringing the total committed points to 45; additional tickets pulled in included code cleanup and regression suite cleanup. Three tickets totaling 9 points were removed from the sprint due to outside constraints preventing the team from working on these. The team also started working on a ticket related to the Direct feature for 5 points, but could not complete it. The final team velocity for Sprint 128 was 31 points.

...

for tasks that the team deemed necessary to support either development of the new features or support the community - this brought the sprint point total to 41. These include - an issue found with event logging (CONN-1045) that was discovered as part of the Admin GUI feature. Also research into the HeartBleed bug and its impact was included (CONN-1053, 1059). A small bug in the DocQuery adapter was fixed (CONN-1061).

The team completed 38 points this sprint. The tickets that were not completed and will be moved over to the next sprint are CONN-952 (Supporting VA with 4.2.1 upgrade) and CONN-998 (Testing the Direct config services). CONN-952 was moved to the next sprint since VA moved their CONNECT development upgrade work over to the next week .

        Separate Recipient email account in the Receiving STA (amazon Direct RI instance) can also be accomplished at the receiving end for automated testing.
        Analyzed how event logs could be used to test Direct as well as how Direct can be performance tested.
        Research findings are documented in the ticket.
        Refactor Direct as a service (CONN-997)
        Create and expose interfaces via java + web services to process direct messages. Implemented sendDirect and ReceiveDirect as web services.
