USCT Simulation User Testing 2023/04 | Screener

Expectation management

@Meelis Zujev (Deactivated)

What are expectations toward sandbox in a process of publication/ release 1

For 1 st release there no special expectations becaus the sandbox readiness isn´t at this level. For the next realise 3-4 months there is expected to see already examples from sandbox implementation (USCT)

5-10 min

Git repositorio discussion

@Wes Brown @jarkkohyoty

Wes can envision his expectation how the code/ document repos should be organized
Development practices

Repositories (source code)

  • Repositories are hosted in GovStack Github organization.

  • We follow “multi-repo” model were logically separate components are hosted in their own repositories.

  • Sandbox-related repositories have a sandbox- -prefix

  • By default, repositories are public, unless there is some specific reason to keep them private.


Building block repositories

For now, we keep sandbox-related code in their own repositories to avoid conflicts with TC work (for example bb-information-mediator related config in sandbox-bb-im). Eventually, when we have verified our approach and sandbox architecture, sandbox-related packaging (custom Docker images, Helm charts and so on) are likely moved to corresponding bb- repositories.
