PTS development methodology PTS will use Agile ”UP” methodology. Incremental release-based development

Why using AUP? AUP supports Incremental release- based development. The AUP applies agile techniques including: 1. Test driven development. 2. Agile Modeling Tool independence You can use any toolset that you want with the Agile UP

Deliverables PTS development process depends on three iterative releases In addition to the traditional planned deliverables PTS has three more. Releases V1.0, V2.0 and V

Project risks Possibility scenario RiskPreventive action High Umple language still new and the Occasional bugs are very possible. Stuck with some unsolvable bugs which will late the whole project workflow. Manual editing the generated code from Umple but after having permission from project sponsor. High Umple language still new and the missing or incomplete features is something expected. Changing the model design which can affect on the other parts and this requires redesign process. Design separated modules and units based in Object oriented modeling methodologies to avoid any unneeded affection. Low Bad Timeline estimation due to some unexpected technical or normal issues Exceeding the estimated timeline. Timeline should be reviewed weekly or at least every two weeks by the Project Manager and the Steering group.

Project risks (Cont.) Possibility scenario RiskPreventive action Medium The project team members feel that they can not communicate efficiently. Team is scattered Expand Communications Plan LowSVN troubles Losing the contents or bad subversion actions.
