Increased confidence level from 2 to 3 - maybe has to do with the teams focusing on their own teams' work vs the project as a whole since there's not as much visibility
We only have 23 tickets in the backlog with 17 (excluding data migration/job credits potentially) not started yet - more of a direct vision to "the end"?
EM's to work with PM's to determine what work is left and how to best group Devs to work on that together
Trying to get things out quicker can cause us to overlook things, but some folks don't seem like this is a new problem right now
Change to FE duplication standard could be a possibility - moved from 3% to 90%
Team to focus more on the PR process to try and catch these earlier if possible
Difficult trade-off rush to get code out vs focusing stronger on quality
Bri, Janaky Raymond: Instead of waiting for approval before the team starts work, can we have folks pull tickets in from the Backlog in order and they can tag you to let you know they've done it and then ask if there's something else that takes higher priority?
Don't want people to not feel empowered/trusted to work on what needs to be done - try to find a balance between "asking permission vs forgiveness" (for lack of better terms)
Follow up with Isaac / ECM on getting FE's backends to point to QA
FE team had a lot of issues recently - couldn't get builds to build consistently, not sure what the original issue was before
Had to revert back to Java 17 for some - others it just started working on its own
Improvements to the clean command should be revisited after initial launch
Discuss splitting larger tickets during QP Refinements
Krypton Sprint 5_2023
Notes:
Our team is a safe space for all feedback - don’t hesitate to each out if issues arise. You can reach out to your DM/EM directly if you aren’t comfortable sending to the larger group.
We may be changing the process for Sprint 6 (more details to come)
