Questions/issues to consider.

• How to communicate your group’s initiatives and milestones to the cohort vs. UC Libraries vs. a general audience.

• How you feel about the feedback you’re receiving, both within the cohort and from UC campuses through group representatives.

• Are you pleased with your group’s Confluence space as a communications tool?

Migration Form Questions

Surface any emerging questions for Migration Forms.

10

Lisa S./ All

Migration Form Questions as standing item will turn to Configuration Forms as project moves forward. PPC discussion is how FGs may review Configuration Forms on any areas to development as recommendations for Vanguard sites (i.e., earlier in the timeline before sites need to submit to ExL).

Alma campuses have parked migration form examples in Google. Feel free to ping Slack with questions as your campuses develop your forms.

• Show Alma EDI tab briefly here (Lisa S.)

• Lisa Spagnolo to review configuration forms to bring to 7/22 call.

Planning for Assessment/Testing for Vanguard

Continuing discussion for assessment and testing from FG perspective.

All

PPC Testing Discussion update from Lisa S. - understood that non-Vanguard FG members will likely be involved in testing. Working out protocol for requesting - we may need to develop the “case.”

• Review/Discussion of Draft Test Cycle Guidelines and Sample Test Plan from Lisa W.

  • Draft guidelines introduce type of testing (unit test for data fields, functional testing, integration testing)

  • Time estimation useful for assessing how long items may take (e.g., a quicker checklist vs. more prolonged coordinated testing)

• See Issues/Questions, evolving into document to capture testing items. Ongoing tasks to pull from our Decisions Pages, Phase 3 identified items, our Phase 4 documents (see esp. comments).

  • Developing areas of testing integrating the concepts from the test cycle guidelines and sample test plan.

  • Can take a subset of an area (identified on second tab) and build out what would be needed for unit testing, functional testing.

  • What are the minimum acceptance criteria for our areas?

• Paula Pascual to start on developing testing areas with focus on electronic resources. Others to join in as able, using Issue/Question Tracker as working document (esp. second tab).
