Adopting SCRUM

We need project planning & tracking

What is SCRUM ?

- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrum_%28development%29
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sprint_%28scrum%29
- Sprints of 2/3 week
  - Specific targets for that period
  - Decomposed in tasks for 1/2 days each
- Regular short meetings

Using JIRA at U.Iowa

Hans setup a Jira installation at U. Iowa
We could use JIRA to record and track tasks
Break down targets into sprints

Dashboard

Monolithic Dashboard

Dashboard Status - Today's Dashboard
Need more Windows machines in Gerrit builds.

Valgrind Errors

2,000 in one Machine? and 0 in another?
- Almost all of these are NRRD related. Why do we see them on this build and not this other build?

Refactoring Workflow

Right now
- code is developed on other remote
- once the code is mature, we submit to gerrit
- lost history
- refactoring may appear as single commit from one person (not team spirit oriented)
Any other solution?
- See Code Contribution Process

Adding Test Data

Right now
- Gerrit patch with new test data is proposed, but data isn't added to external repository
- Tests are expected to fail
- After initial round of feedback, test data is added to repository
- Robot builds run again and tests pass
- Gerrit patch merged

New way
- Follow method outlined by Brad King: http://www.itk.org/mailman/private/insight-developers/2011-June/019048.html
- Tests should pass right away
- Review cycle
- Gerrit patch merged

Should we be using the new way yet?
