Lightweight Ticket Process (LPD)


Introduction

 

This is a project to create some XHTML/CSS material to assist with the documentation of process. In particular it is designed to be simple so that it can be used in a project WiKi for software developers. Current process documentation presentation frameworks are much more heavyweigh, for instance OpenUP requires a dedicated composer. LPD will require vi, or any text or html editor -- in particular it should be editble from a WiKi page

 

Motivation

 

Example

 

Simple Example Change Process

Purpose and final outcomes: To provide simple support for a development change set

 

Rationale: Before a change is built and integrated it needs to be documented for engineering reasons

 

Entry gate: A change has been identified and will take less that 4 days of developer effort

Exit gate: The change passes all unit tests and has been integrated into the smoke build

Abnormal process stages or exit gates: Change can be marked obsolete by team leader or project manager (requires a brief description)
