Lecture 6

Lecture 6, Wed 10/12

Legacy code, and preparation for lab03

In this lecture we went over the procedures for lab03, our first look at legacy code.

As we discussed, each student has a pair partner, and a legacy code repo assigned to them. Those assignments are in this spreadsheet: (/info/projects/)

We discussed how points are estimated, and made reference to Agile Planning Poker

We also discussed what User Stories are, and the typical form they take:

“As a (role) I can (do something thing) so that (I can acheive some goal).”

We discussed what “issues” are, and “issue tracking systems” (e.g. Mantis, Jira, Trac, etc.) and the fact that we are using github itself for our issues backlog.
