Integration Phase

The Integration phase is a crucial step in software development. During this phase, the Squad Lead manages the merging of code and oversees troubleshooting efforts.

The QA ensures the products meets quality standards through in-depth testing, while the Sysadmin handles the required infrastructure management.

After testing, a beta version of the product is deployed for users to evaluate it.

Actors in Integration

  • Squad Lead (SL): Oversees code integration and coordinates troubleshooting.
  • QA: In charge of performing quality tests to ensure the correct functioning of the product.
  • SysAdmin: Manages the infrastructure required for integration testing.
  • BA: Analyzes user requirements and provides feedback on product functionality.

Process

Integration:

  • Developed code is integrated into a test environment to verify compatibility and proper operation.
  • The SL or the most experienced developer oversees the integration and coordinates troubleshooting with the team.
  • QA performs quality testing to identify potential problems or bugs in the product.

Results

  • Product Tested (MVP-X Tested): After integration testing, the product is considered tested and ready for the next stage.
  • Product Feedback (MVP-X Feedback): Product feedback is collected to identify areas for improvement.
  • Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD): A continuous integration process is implemented to automate product deployment.

Finalization

  • Beta Deployment: The product is deployed in a test environment for users to evaluate it.
