5. T-76.115 Project Review 5 Status of the iteration’s goals  Goal 1: Get to know the customer and their goals for the project.  OK  Goal 2: Learn their working methods and tools.  Not as important as assumed  Goal 3: Synchronize mutual project goals, methods and schedule between the customer, project team and course staff.  OK.  Goal 4: Plan the project and write the project plan  Not 100%, but close enough for this phase  Goal 5: Gather customers requirements from customer and write initial requirements specification document  OK  Goal 6: Study the application domain and familiarize the project team with the concepts and challenges in it.  OK for those who have been able to attend all customer meetings  Goal 7: Set up all the needed tools and environments for communication, documentation and programming.  OK, except development server from students’ own resources not available 5 min 10min 10min 5min 5min 7

6. T-76.115 Project Review 6 Status of the iteration’s deliverables  Project Plan  OK, except some minor tuning needed  QA plan will be delivered 9.11.  Requirements document  Only a few most important use cases written in detail  More use cases will be added in the next iteration  Watchdog  OK, enough to start design and implementation  HourLogger  OK, enough to start design and implementation  LogAnalyzer  OK, enough to start design and implementation  Non-functional requirements  OK, but might still need some work with the customer. 5 min 10min 10min 5min 5min 8

7. T-76.115 Project Review 7 Realization of the tasks  Major discrepancies  Lectures: people didn’t attend as much as expected (Tools: PM was alone!)  RE: much of the elicitation was done in project kick-off meeting and review was performed by email.  Internal status & planning meetings very efficient, some planning work moved to project plan writing sessions  Write project plan  Includes a lot of other planning work too  Slower progress than expected  Not started:  SEPA practices not started yet  Project review not included yet  Much of the work was included in the project plan writing  Extranet not as complicated as expected  Delivery preparations not included yet  NOTE: Only hours until 1.11. have been included in these figures! 5 min 10min 10min 5min 5min 10

8. T-76.115 Project Review 8 Realization of budget  Monthly allowance of € 100 for miscellaneous well justified project costs  October costs:  € 1 for mailing the NDAs  $ 43 for buying Core Servlets and JavaServer Pages, Vol. 1 from Amazon 5 min 10min 10min 5min 5min 11

9. T-76.115 Project Review 9 Working hours by person  These figure DON’T include the PP-delivery and PP- project review hours  Ville put more work in RE than originally planned. This plan already takes it into account.  The personal work distribution was NOT planned in the PP-iteration plan. This reflects the situation of the plan a week ago.  Work distribution among members not satisfactory RealPlanDiff aalestal30.2535-5 dzei19.9525-5 mkkangas45.7545+1 mnokela21.0025-4 osyysjok14.2525-10 trillian28.0530-2 vvaten76.2570+6 Total 235.5025519.5 Realized hours in this iteration 5 min 10min 10min 5min 5min 12
