Sprint 2 – Retrospective

For this sprint, overall, the team work significantly better. Not only did we continue to communicate well with one another, but there was a lot of improvement because we were much more experienced with the project. Not only were we more familiar with the coding side of things, but since we had a much firmer understanding of SCRUM as a whole, it allowed us to skip through a lot of the learning process that happened in the first sprint and get right to work instead.

For one, we had accurate weights for almost all of our issues. This is a huge contrast with Sprint 1, as Sprint 1 was littered with issues that should have been weights of 2-3, but instead they were 1s. With this more correct weights, we were able to delegate a lot better, and we also were just more aware of the types of problems we were facing. In Sprint 1 for example, I had moments where I picked up a ‘1’ weight issue, only to be stuck on it for almost a whole week or more because I had to learning about how things worked. Now in Sprint 2, because I can skip a bit of the learning, since I had already did it during Sprint 1, many of the ‘1’ weight issues were actually ‘1s,’ thankfully!

On top of being more familiar with the code and the SCRUM process, we realized that we as a team, did not focus on the issues as heavily as we should have. Although we worked as a group somewhat in Sprint 1, Sprint 2 was much much more collaborative. We realized that the system is a lot more interlocked than we realized, and because of that, if Sam was working on one portion of the API, Moses might have insights, or vice versa. Many instances of issues being tackled was one of us starting it, and another member jumping in and finishing it together.

Other than the improvements in understand and our teamwork, I tackled setting up the Reporting Integrations repo. I figured that since everyone was working on the API, Backend, or a mix of the two, it would be a bit easier for me to tackle the creation of a whole separate part of the Reporting Systems. I think, this was for the best because although help might have useful at times, overall, I was worried that since the Reporting Integrations was going to be made from the ground up essentially, it would become a situation of too many cooks ruin the pot. I am glad I did this because once I set up Reporting Integrations, I had a very solid understanding of the different tools that we used such as the Pipeline, and with that understanding, I was able to help much of the team with some issues.

Pipeline updates
Reporting Integrations
Multi-Architecture Conversion Backend, Frontend, Swagger CLI

After that, things became much smoother as people collectively got a hold on the issues, and though we are still lacking experience in many areas, it feels like we have a better grasp on everything as a whole. I think that moving forward, we should keep our pacing, and improve our communication even more potentially. I do really enjoy how we are much more collaborative on the different issues, and though sometimes we have to focus on our own task, the team work aspect is very refreshing and helpful. We are almost like each other’s rubber ducks.

Somethings that still aren’t too good is that we still only focus on working together when we are face to face, but I think that is overall fine. It could be better if we paired up, or had meetings outside of class and would make things smoother, but things are passable. Also, this isn’t exactly our whole responsibility either!

Sprint-2

Hello, welcome to the Second-Sprint Retrospective Blog. I contributed to the group project by working on the tasks assigned on GitLab. I chose to complete one of the jobs, but it was more difficult than I had expected. I am currently participating in an activity that calls for additional alterations, and adding more details is more complicated than I had anticipated. It is up to the team and me to decide whether to put the modifications for the necessary measures. 

After the team and I adjusted to the issue board required for the work and practice. Completing this ISSUE Weight assignment with a total weight of 3 is reasonable and practicable. 

The Issue:
backend — write a test suite for API (changes); This activity writes test in Chai, ensuring that the backend works with the API while ensuring you get a file back in .xls format (get the simple tests working). 

My challenge concerning these works is researching the topic of “Chai.” It explains that Chai is an assertion library written in JavaScript with different test frameworks. It allows maintenance of your code’s functionality and checks that it follows those assertions. It has the “assertions” style comparable to Node.js’s built-in assert module, and the “expect” style uses a chainable API to create more legible and expressive tests. Chai can be used with any testing framework, including Mocha, to define test suites with a specific feature. Each test in a test suite will state how your code should act.
I learned that it has additional chai-related dependencies after researching the topic. These include additions to npm install chai, chai-HTTP, chai-as-promise, etc. Those additions make the process simpler, but it doesn’t look good. It has already gone through the potentially functional aspects, even after the review, code addition/construction, and code comparison phases. However, the conjunction of some codes didn’t pass due to some missing information and led to some failures. 

To improve myself, I plan to seek information regarding this kind of assignment from members of my group and members of other groups by asking questions. It will serve as a learning experience. Even though the end of the year is getting close, I have seen that my abilities to manage time have increased, and the learning steps for work are becoming the assigned time. We ran into various technical issues during the development process, which resulted in delays; the team and I had a fantastic mid-round in finishing all of the items listed on the sprint backlog. These delays are different learning experiences that require better comprehension and learning new specialties to avoid those misconceptions and repeated attempts resulting from communication breakdowns. The problems may avoid by increasing knowledge and diving into the serious issue with the other group collaborating. 

In conclusion, in the second sprint, our team had good objectives and executed them, though we succeeded wildly better after the First-Sprint. We overcame some obstacles and learned about new topics while working through the complex pipeline and completing one of the assignments.
