• Packaging (Jarkko) Compliance Level 2 (Nico)

  • BB Candidate to be packed for easy deployment

  • Export/Import of multiple BB configurations/whole instance (Use Case focused?)

• Configuration and Seed Data

• Process and Project Management. How to work together.

  • Streamline developer teams to one common team

  • Shared Backlog or Collaboration Board for Division of Goals

• Most Important Streams? Work on what?

  • DONE Cooperation Soldevelo/Gofore on Adapter Development?

    • Adapter as one key hurdle to have first running GovStack based Instance (Proof of concept running)

    • DONE Work together on OpenIMIS and UNCTAD eRegistration tools?

      • Mifos: Share needed Endpoints

      • Mosip: Share needed Endpoints

      • UNCTAD eRegistration (=Registry)

        • Pick OpenCRVS or UNCTAD

      • OpenIMIS (=Registration)

        • Soldevelo already working on OpenIMIS → Synergy

        • Develop adapter together: Soldevelo + Gofore Team

    • Focus of Soldevelo? Example Implementations, Adapters, Extend Test Harness…?

  • DONE Using Test Harness in Sandbox - Adding Deployment Test to Test Harness (Pawel)

    • Where is testing gone live? Owner?

      • Resources are in BB repositories

      • Possible limit of CircleCI Free. Who will own the subscription in future?

    • Integration of Exchange: Testing Results in Exchange

    • Docker Scripts and Files will be shared with Sandbox. Sandbox Team does not have to build new docker scripts

    • No further assets from the sandbox team are shared with Testing Team and vice versa

  • SECOND PRIO Software Product Journey

    • Catalog: Very High Level Alignment Check, Automatic pulling of from sources

    • Compliance: API Testing and Manual FitGap Analysis

    • Sandbox: Deployment Readiness,…?

• Timelines and Resources

  • End of May

    • Endpoint Mapping of Happy Flow

    • Meeting with BB Providers to review timeline and priotize endpoints

  • June

    • Soldevelo, Gofore, possibly OpenIMIS developers to work on integrating OpenIMIS (adapter) (1-2 sprints)

      • Potentially write adapter for Registry BB

    • Check compliance of the relevant endpoints with test harness (1 sprint)

    • After Azure PoC: Present Infrastructure Setup in Architecture WG

    • Build: Authentication and Authorization Function for sandbox

  • June/July:

    • BB Providers delivering a pre-version of their candidate only with Happy API

    • “Backend for Frontend” Development

  • July/August:

    • Integrate all BB and Quality Assurance

    • Documentation being finalized (Gitbook)

  • Mid September: Release 2.0

    • Release: USCT Simulation, possibly with Online Construction Permit (purpose: Presentation)

    • Release: USCT Simulation combined with functional backend (purpose: replicatable for tech users)

    • Release: Sandbox Documentation and Tutorials to replicate Sandbox

Actions

• Involve contracted BB Providers (Mifos, MOSIP, XRoad, [Consent]) early on in piloting the Testing Harness Paweł Gesek
• Create a list of 2-3 candidates for each BB Steve Conrad
• Create draft of software journey to be shared in Tech/Product Committee or Architecture Group Nico Lueck
• List expectations from BB Providers and pain points for Gofore Team on integration work Meelis Zujev (Deactivated)
• Gofore will map all needed BB endpoints on Happy Flow Meelis Zujev (Deactivated)
• Required Happy Flow Endpoints will be shared with Mifos and Mosip Meelis Zujev (Deactivated)
• Required Happy Flow Endpoints will be served with BB candidates and adapter developments Meelis Zujev (Deactivated) Paweł Gesek
• Wes Brown to set up meeting with Steve Conrad and Satya to discuss BB provider scope (APIs and deployment?) and prioritizing APIs for sandbox use cases
• Include security aspects in adapter concept Wes Brown Steve Conrad
• Wes Brown to schedule time at PC to discuss overall process for new BB Providers

Agenda

\uD83D\uDDE3 Discussion topics

Brainstorming on agenda topics:

• Adapters and their use in Sandbox and Testing Procedures

  • Develop plan for building out first adaptors with products being used in the Sandbox

  • What tools/technologies should we use to build first adaptors?

• Integration of DIAL Catalog, Testing Harness and Sandbox

  • DIAL Catalog integration in Frontend Simulation

  • Using API Tests in Sandbox

  • Showing test compliance for products within DIAL Catalog

  • Idea: Extend Testing Harness to Deployment etc. by Sandbox Team

• Practical enactment of compliance concept, detailed instructions to give partners

• Additional UX assets: Reusable UX patterns

• Learnings from bringing Specs into practice

  • Reality Check: With all the assets planned so far (compliance concept, testing harness, adapters,...), can we forecast, if the envisioned marketplace or software products is realistic? Or will we get stuck with 1-2 solutions because of the needed resource Investments.

  • Feedback to Spec work: From an implementer perspective, what would be expected?

  • Collaboration and general principles for the future (what could speed up the Govstack idea to evolve)

• Review/Update deliverables for MVP

• Review/Update timelines for MVP delivery

• Discuss the Roadmap after the MVP

  • How do we scale this work so that future use cases do not require significant effort to implement?

• Discussion on common workflows - how do we identify, create specifications and examples of these workflows in the Sandbox. How do we make them re-usable between use cases?
