- 3. Quality Assurance • "A way of preventing mistakes or defects in manufactured products and avoiding problems when delivering solutions or services to customers." • Wikipedia • "The process by which subcontracted projects (features and sub-themes) are being validated to comply to the FPFIS platform." • European Commission, DIGIT, FPFIS Team
- 10. Quality Assurance • Small steps to improve the quality of your project: • standards, • code documentation, • project management softwares, • clear workflows (not only agile).

Editor's Notes
- Speak about me in 2-3 sentences (name, workplace, responsabilities) Continuous improvement on this presentation, things are coming in and out, lot of small changes like in a QA procedure. In the commission a lot of people come from different countries with many many backgrounds – we all are Europeans, that's why we need to understand and help each other.
- Wikipedia says it generally. Need to focus on drupal and our solutions in EC. Directorate General for Informatics Flexible Platform for Internet Services
- Project managers hate us because they cannot count with the quality of their developers – and we will be in crosshairs (célkereszt). In the short term they really heat us, because we BLOCK them and can block the deadlines.
- Developers hate us, because they don’t like to focus on the quality, just deliver what PMs asked. When we report the problems what they did, they have to fix those. Short term they really hate us.
- The client also hates us because of the delays.
- Long term goals: do not worry, they will realise they actually love you and your reports.
- Focus on the pros, but not forget to mention the cons! Start with small steps, it will increase the quality of the software what you make without huge time investment. Standards: coding standards – easily adoptable: good and well settled IDE (phpstorm, netbeans …) Code documentations: mention your ticket in code, header phpdoc documentations, where the complexity of the code is getting big put some explanation, or at most refactor it. Project management softwares: Atlassian softwares (jira, confluence) use it or forget the success (in a one man business as well!) Clear workflows: no need to use agile if it's not fit to your project. BUT there should be clear definied steps. Ours: todo list, build&fix, QA, functional test, released/closed.
- What you see is what you deliver: our workflow has to be transparent and objective. We check custom features, custom themes, contrib modules to use in a subsite (but not the quality of the contrib!)
- Phpunit/simpletest – unit testing Behat – behaviour driven testing Php mess detector – scan for possible bugs, suboptimal code, overcomplicated expression and my favourite one: dead code. Php copy/paste detector – duplicated code Phpdox – documentation generator phpcs&cbf Phpmetrics – complexity, volume, oo, maintainability, halstead complexity measures.

- Focus: try to be focus when you need to write code and when you need to check code! Human part: no one is perfect, everyone can take mistakes, be professional and understanding Pair programming: two developers work on the same workstation. One is the driver, the other is observer, pointer, navigator. They switch roles frequently. Learn and teach: a team can be big with juniors and seniors, experts. It is possible when an expert learns something from a junior, be open mind and let your collagues show you their practices.

- Cleanup issues on d.org issue tracker, Pieter Frenssen and i started to discuss about it during our daily work and made progress on the drupal community. Please join us! Coder module (Klausi) is not a simple module anymore, interface for checking the coding standards and make reports about your project, help to clean it up. DrupalCI sub-project is responsible for the test runners being used on the infrastructure. This project's repository contain's the project's docker container definitions, and a Symfony Console application which executes the actual testing process itself.
