Choosing Greenfield Projects www.AGuideToCloud.com Greenfield projects: ❑ Appears to be an easier starting point ❑ A blank slate offers the chance to implement everything the way you want. Choosing Brownfield Projects www.AGuideToCloud.com Brownfield projects: ❑ Comes with the baggage of existing code bases, existing teams and often a great amount of technical debt ❑ Spending time maintaining existing Brownfield applications, limits the ability to work on new code.

  • Software Development Process Improvements - Case QPR Software Plc
    Software development process improvements - Case QPR Software Plc Lidia Zalevskaya Master’s Thesis Degree Programme in Information Systems Management 2019 Abstract Date: 2019.11.24 Author(s) Lidia Zalevskaya Degree programme Information Systems Management, Master’s Degree Thesis title Number of pages and appendix pages Software development process improvements - 98 + 26 Case QPR Software Plc Initially this study was planned as an effort to improve on a software development process within an existing team using an existing product code and systems. However, the situation changed and a new team (DevApps team) was established and given a new project, which created an opportunity to build a new type of team, product, process, and tools pipeline from scratch utilizing the improvement ideas. An Action Research framework was adopted as the theoretical approach for the study, while the Scrum methodology served as a framework for the development practices. The study began by summarizing previously identified problems in the software development process at QPR Software Plc and formulating improvement ideas focused on the coding workflow and Scrum practices. These were then tested in practice by the new DevApps scrum team. The research analysis centres on the process of choosing and setting up the new team’s development tools, figuring out ways of working, and implementing several iterations to find the best suitable development process. The most valuable empirical outcomes were the creation of a branching strategy and Git workflow for the DevApps team, the team members’ practical experience of working with Git and with the Azure DevOps developer services. A key outcome was the shift in many verification activities to earlier phases.

    Simple Version Control of SAS Programs and SAS Data Sets Magnus Mengelbier, Limelogic Ltd, United Kingdom ABSTRACT SUBVERSION AND LIFE SCIENCES SAS data sets and programs that reside on the local network are most often stored using a simple Subversion can fit very well within Life Sciences and with a tweak here and there, the version and file system with no capability of version control, audit trail of changes and all the benefits. We revision control can be a foundation for a standard and compliant analytics environment and consider the possibility to capitalise on the capabilities of Subversion and other simple process. straightforward conventions to provide version control and an audit trail for SAS data sets, standard macro libraries and programs without changing the SAS environment. TRUNK –BRANCHES –TAGS OR DEV –QC -PROD INTRODUCTION The approach with trunk, branches and tags can also be used within reporting clinical trials, if outputs are standardized for a specific study and used in multiple reporting events. Most organisations will use the benefits of a local network drive, a mounted share or a dedicated SAS server file system to store and archive study data in multiple formats, analytical programs and trunk Pre-lock data and programs for reporting purposes their respective logs, outputs and deliverables. branch Deliverables for a specific reporting event such as Investigator Brochure A manual process is most often implemented to retain versions and snapshots of data, programs (IB), Investigational New Drug (IND), Clinical Study Reports (CSRs), etc and deliverables with varying degrees of success most often.

Each integration is verified by an automated build (including test) to detect integration errors as quickly as possible.

  • Getting Started with Subversion (Migrating from CVS to SVN) Version 1.0 Frank C
    Getting Started with SubVersion (Migrating from CVS to SVN) Version 1.0 Frank C. Anderson Department of Mechanical Engineering, Stanford University [email protected] SimTK.org uses SVN (SubVersion, http://subversion.tigris.org) as its source-code versioning system. It stores a revision history for files under version control in a repository and enables potentially large numbers of programmers to work on source code concurrently. It is intended to replace CVS (Concurrent Versions System, http://www.cvshome.org). Some of the key improvements over CVS include: • Repository-wide version numbering. Each time a change is committed to the SVN repository, the revision number of the entire repository is incremented. This is in contrast to CVS, which keeps revisions on a per-file basis. The versioning system used by SVN allows for easier retrieval of self-consistent snapshots of the code. • Directories and renames are versioned. This allows one to change the names of files and directories and reorganize a repository, something that is difficult to do in CVS. • Efficient versioning of binary files. All diffs in SVN are on a binary basis, thus text files and binary files are handled the same. • Branching and Tagging are inexpensive. Branching is the mechanism for making major code revisions without breaking the main development trunk. Tagging is the mechanism for making release snapshots. Both mechanisms use the copy command. In SVN, copies are done through symbolic links, so the disk space that is needed only for changes that are made in the files. Using SVN is much like using CVS; many of the commands are the same.
