Development Phase

The Development Phase starts after the Sprint Planning and ends on the day of the Sprint Review.

Work with Issues

In the Development Phase, the Development teams work with the issues they have been given by the Process group after the Sprint Planning.

Need More Issues to Work On

If you have time to work on a additional issues, than the ones that were distributed after Sprint Planning, you can get a new one by following these steps:

  1. Find an issue you want to work on in the Sprint Backlog e.g. 2020E 3. Sprint
  2. Ask the Process group if you can work on that issue
    • The Process group might say no for various reasons and they have the final say, as they have a better overview.
    • There is usually a greater chance of getting a yes, if the issue you have picked is either highest or high priority.

If you don't have a preferred issue you can ask the PO group to be assigned the most pressing issue, as they have a good overview of the project and they will most likely have some issues that they would like you to work with.

If a Development team need more issues to work on, they have to contact the Process group.

Code Review

As a developer in the GIRAF team you will have to review code made by other developers. This should always be the main priority to further the development process.

GitHub

The primary tool for the Development Phase is GitHub. The usage of GitHub in GIRAF is described here.
