Since the inception of the site membership has been growing, I realize members  have different backgrounds but I was wondering if this site will provide information on  the  actual code and application  and some software development metrics to track the development process to understand where  the application is  in terms of development  and implementation.If this information is readily available  can someone direct me to  the source. Thank you

Response on FLOSS SOLA Software Development Metrics

 This site will be updated with information regarding the SOLA application and code base as the development effort progresses. Information already available on this site includes the statement of requirements, use cases and the proposed architecture (see Community > Documents > Technical). These documents are available to all site members. Monthly progress reports are also available (see Community > Documents > Monthly Reports).

 Thank you for your question regarding development metrics. The full development team has only just assembled in Rome during the past week. The team will be using the Agile Scrum Methodology for the development of SOLA and once development is under way and rhythm established, the team will publish story point metrics (e.g. Total Story Points, Completed Story Points and Team Velocity) to this site at the completion of each Sprint. The Quality Plan, which will be added to this site once it has completed review, describes these metrics in more detail as well as other product and quality metrics that will be tracked internally by the team.

 The best contact for this project is Neil Pullar (). Refer to About > Contact Us for additional contact information.

Development Snapshop - Comments

The following observations were made to the SOLA team through an email.

This type of comment is useful as it highlights areas we can improve in our user interface and help as well as identifying (small!) software bugs. Please feel free to provide similar suggestions and comments.

The observations were:

  • Search Applications; for example with Contact Person does only work with "Right side wild card" not work; for examples search for "Benn" will not result in the presentation of the application done by "Von Bennheim-Scmidt". A search for "Von" will work. The Search is case insensitive which is good.
  • Document Tab: Of New Application: Date doesn't accept entries? Shouldn't the user be aware of the formatting of this field? The "Select FROM Date" dialog doesn't seem to work?
  • Application number: size of the number 10000 per month is fixed maximum? Will the type and format of numbering be configurable to address local needs: "2009/23456" [year and sequence in parent year]
  • After Assignment I am still able to change/add the services, that seems incorrect
  • Context Sensitive Help is not available in the context of screens
