Figure: Disregard these graphs - JK's load testing skewed all the data on purpose

Sprint Retrospective

As part of our commitment to inspect and adapt as a team we conduct a Sprint Retrospective at the end of every Sprint. Here are the results of our Sprint Retrospective:

✅ What went well?

• JK - Upgrading from Azure SQL tier from B to S0 - promising load handling results!
• Seth - Communication has been great between devs ↔️ product owner
• JK - More stable API (by 39x we think) - and big performance changes still coming (blocked by SysAdmins at the moment)
• Vlad - interesting learning about SSW.IdentityServer

❌ What didn’t go so well?

• All - Many permissions issues slowing JK and Vlad down
• Vlad and JK - F5 experience for MAUI is bad
• JK - focus divided between TimePro, client, and miscellaneous

💡 What improvements will be made for the next Sprint?

• Vlad and JK - potentially will need an Apple device to do UI testing on
• JK - Codebase needs a review (DRY overfollowed in some places, leading to significant overfetching of data and reduced performance)
