Development Phase

The Development phase is the software creation process, where the team led by the Squad Lead works on the implementation of new features.

After testing and bug fixing, a release branch is prepared for product deployment.

Actors in Development

• Squad Lead (SL): Team leader responsible for coordinating development and resolving obstacles.
• SysAdmin: Responsible for configuring and maintaining the infrastructure required for development.
• Dev's: Team of developers in charge of implementing new features.
• Remote Dev's: External developers collaborating on the project from remote locations.

Process

Develop:

• Dev's and Remote Dev's work in their respective branches to implement new features or solve problems.
• The SL monitors progress and resolves impediments that arise during development.
• The SysAdmin provides support for infrastructure configuration and maintenance.

Results

• Code Tested: After unit testing and integration, the implemented code is considered tested and ready for merging.
• Merge Requests: Merge requests are sent to integrate the changes into the main branch.
• Error Logging: A record is kept of errors encountered during development for subsequent correction.
• Infrastructure configuration: The SysAdmin configures and maintains the infrastructure required for development and testing.

Finalization

• Release Branch: A release branch is first created to prepare for deployment, once all planned features implemented are ready for testing.
