12-02-2021 | Sprint - | Backlog refinement of ATR- and Account-related tasks

Notes | Team identified that some ATR tasks needed an updated description (Kelly has since updated the descriptions at time of writing this). We broke up some tasks for account-related tasks as determined from the Hi-Fi prototype: sign up, login, forgot password, and database structuring for accounts. All tasks pulled into Sprint 7, bar less important/cleanup tasks from Sprint 6.

16-02-2021 | Sprint 7 | Scrum

Notes | The database structuring tasks were completed, we just need to add the database interface and services now. From discussion, we'll now be referring to the local database as the Firestore/Firebase cache, and the remote database as the Firestore/Firbase database. The database rules will prevent incomplete ATRs in the cache from making their way to the database.

During work on the ATR screens, some work needs to be done to refactor navigators and the bottom navigation bar, having multiple navigators isn't working well for us when we try to navigate between them. Two new tasks will be made.

19-02-2021 | Sprint 7 | Scrum

Notes | The database query rules task was completed. Interestingly, to test these rules we are able to use a simulator in Firebase Console: so, there are no tests in the codebase for the query rules.

Team discussed upcoming work for the project: the final project abstract for project day is due 28-02-2021, and there is also a project bazaar day for the course on 25-02-2021. Both of these require work outside of the Sprint for presentations.

Also brought up by Clark was the future addition of a user workflow diagram for the system. This would replace the system test failure aid. The workflow would show how the system operates from cradle (login) to grave (logout).

23-02-2021 | Sprint 7 | Scrum

Notes | The database service-related tasks for account and ATR queries are nearing completion. The act of writing tests for widgets and services is new for most of the team so some progress has slowed down. I (scrum master) would say we're in a yellow-green state. We need to pay attention that we don't fall behind, but we've made good progress so some slow down is expected.

Had a team discussion about the work completed so far and how that fits into the system architecture, which will lead into the first backlog refinement for Sprint 8.

26-02-2021 | Sprint 7 | Sprint Review and Retrospective
