WTP 3.2 Retrospective 06/17/2010

Purpose

Following every release, we have short retrospective to discuss possible ways our project might improve. This starts with a list of things we like and don't like about how the release went, and will evolve into action items with people assigned to be responsible, where appropriate.

Below are initially notes from our 6/17/2010 status meeting. Overtime the notes will be categorized, organized, collapsed, etc., to make correspondence to actions clear.

Things we've done well

Maintained last year's "good" list!

JUnits have done better (even if not green often, there are fewer intermittent failures).

The graduation and integration of jaxws code went smoothly (thanks to shane and daniel)

jsdt creation went well, good to be "own project", has been getting more visibility, interest, help

WTP is good at meeting deadlines

ian mentioned good patch review and apply responsiveness from source editing team

weekly bug focus quality area ... less "home work" to do week to week. Teams kept up and/or had less backlog to start with.

Things we'd like to improve on

weekly quality focus: would be nice to raise the bar ... actually fix more old bugs (not just triage)

weekly quality focus: add metrics, such as track fix rates

JUnits: we need more passing (green) builds, less intermittent failures, so its easier to focus when there is a problem.

We really should do some performance testing and have focused performance milestone where we focus on improving performance

should do more explicit verification and closing of fixed bugs

documentation -- longer term planing from everyone would help doc. teams plan what they need (as is, sort of milestone by milestone).

keep up better with base prereqs more timely

We should focus more (and measure) not using non-API, discouraged access

build improvements (still needed)

while some backlogs were reduced/categorized, old, unimportant bugs closed, we need a system to not let backlog build up or grow.
