Development Culture

Company strategy is establishing a highly efficient and productive culture by:

  • Automating all repetitive processes;
  • Establishing and documenting procedures for all common tasks;
  • Considering every task as a project and properly documenting it so anybody can take on that task at any given moment;
  • Adhering to company standards and policies.

Agile Software Development

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agile_software_development Agile is just a “common sense” approach to development. This is just a guideline but not the rule. The key point is to be adaptable to current situation and requirements. Twelve principles underlie the Agile Manifesto:

  • Customer satisfaction by rapid delivery of useful software;
  • Welcome changing requirements, even late in development;
  • Working software is delivered frequently (weeks rather than months);
  • Working software is the principal measure of progress;
  • Sustainable development, able to maintain a constant pace;
  • Close, daily co-operation between business people and developers;
  • Face-to-face conversation is the best form of communication (co-location);
  • Projects are built around motivated individuals, who should be trusted;
  • Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design;
  • Simplicity- The art of maximizing the amount of work not done - is essential;
  • Self-organizing teams;
  • Regular adaptation to changing circumstances.

Development Environment

Project Root Directory

Create a “Root Development” directory:

 Example: C:\Zoran\Development
  • You should use your username as part of the root directory name because that computer could be used by several individuals.
  • Review all the code in that directory.

Your directory structure will look something like this (depending on the projects you checked out).

For remote desktop computers which are used by more than one person, create a directory with your name and copy - paste the Development directory to the newly created directory. For example, instead of C:\Development, you should have C:\Zoran\Development. This policy is made so that conflicts are avoided while using SVN, since more than one person is using the virtual machine. Personal computers can be set in any way you like.

Files that start with “z” in “C:\Development” are utility DOS scripts that can help you checkout, update and commit files in multiple SVN Repositories. A list of all affected repositories is contained in the file named “projects.lst”. You should edit this file and keep only a list of repositories that you will be working on.

All “z” files and default “projects.lst” are in the archive zfiles.zip.

 “z” scripts in SVN: c:\Development\res\Scripts\SVN DOS Scripts\
Back End Source Code Location
 c:\Zoran\Development\youtestme\source\
