Group Discussion

Complete a group discussion on this week new sections. A lively discussion will help you in highlighting some of the most important aspects involved in successfully completing a design review checklist and a testing and deployment plan. You can benefit greatly from sharing your viewpoint with your classmates and also hearing there point of view.

As a group, discuss the following:

Design Review Checklist

Before starting the development or implementation of any solution, it is wise to ensure that you are addressing all the clients' need. As a result, you should review the requirements to be sure that they were addressed in the design process.

What is the purpose of the Design Review Checklist?

Does the design address all stakeholder specific requirements?

Does the design consider feature consolidate and tradeoff?

Does the design address efficiency concerns based on business process flow?

Are there areas that can be improved? Where? And how?

Testing and Deployment

Why should you test before deployment?

What process should be reviewed as a part of the testing process?

Who should be involved with the testing process?

What considerations should be given to the deployment process?

How should a schedule determined?

Should there be a rollback plan? Why or Why not?

Individual Deliverables

Design Review Checklist

Based on your group discussion, you will develop a design review checklist to ensure that the design addressed all the requirements the customers requested.

This would be done before actual development starts. The review checklist that will be developed should be aligned with the development methodology chosen.

This could include but not limited to:

Task schedule

Peer review

Feature review

Meeting Schedule

Deployment and Testing schedule

Besides your checklist, you will include a summary of the discussion you held as a group.

Testing and Deployment

Now that you have completed the design review, and your system is built. It will be time to verify that all is functioning as expected.

Develop a checklist for testing the Application before it is deployed into Production.

The checklist should include but not be limited to the following:

Use a cross-section of users who can verify that the functionalities are available based on the system requirements

Verify that accessibility is available based on design requirements

Data migration process functionality if that is a part of the design process

Develop a plan and time frame for production deployment.

This must include the following:

System installation and configuration

Data migration schedule

Schedule of system downtime

Cross-section of users for testing immediately after the cut-over

Fallback plan if planned cutover
