Review Detailed Use Cases
Each team member detailed a specific use case and brought the results to compile during our Friday meeting. We were required to have 4-5 use cases, so we had each team member work on one (total of 5 use cases). During our meeting on Friday, we found that two team members were assigned the same use case and had to drop one of them, leaving us with 4 use cases. So, by going above the minimum requirements for the deliverable, we successfully mitigated the problem. After compiling the use cases, we checked for consistent wording, grammar, and structure. Since we worked on 4 use cases instead of the expected 5, this took us 25 minutes opposed to the expected 30 minutes.
Update Prototype
Since no changes were made since the last deliverable, no updates needed to be made.
Update Analysis Diagrams
During the review with the CEO, we were notified of a few changes that needed to be made with our analysis diagrams. During our team meeting on Friday, these modifications were made and took the team roughly 30 minutes from notification of the required changes to finalization.
Compile Data Dictionary
Most of the individual data dictionary submissions from team members were very similar in syntax and structure, so compiling them together in a consistent fashion was easier than expected. This took us 40 minutes during our Friday meeting.
Final review with Mosaically.com CEO
The CEO was very satisfied with the quality and proffessionalism of our documents in this deliverable. The only issue was that the top level analysis diagram seemed inconsistent with the current design, but individual diagrams were fine. The review was more thourough than expected (which is a good thing!) and took the team 50 minutes.
Next Week's Features / Tasks
Deliverable 3 Post-mortem
Optimistically this task will not take long - Deliverable 2 had very few problems which led to a quick 30 minute Post-mortem discussion, and we are confident in the continued quality in Deliverable 3.
Create and Review Presentation
Following the same pattern as most other software class projects, each team member will be assigned a set of slides to work on, based on their familiarity and expertise with the topic. We will meet to compile our slides together in a full presentation, and ensure that everything is consistent. This entire process is expected to take each team member 45 minutes to prepare individual slides, and 30 minutes in a team meeting to review the full presentation.
