The plan for sprint 5 has been updated with progress and review notes:
This was a sprint of highs and lows - there were significant wins, but also more distractions, and the direction of progress seems to be diverging more from the original plan. A user demonstration session was postponed, to take place early in the next sprint. I have also spent a fair amount of time cleaning up existing code in various ways.
On the positive side, a demonstrable drag-and-drop data graphing interface has been completed (as planned), and I worked with Jun Zhao to successfully implement a card containing a FlyUI gene finder widget (not planned).
I have started to look at making the data access modules more robust - currently, an I/O error (such as accessing a non-existent web resource) can leave the application broken.
Encouragingly, plans are now being laid for projects that will continue aspects of Shuffl beyond the current Rapid Innovation project.
Task completion velocity is down significantly from the previous sprint (tasks completed/effort spent: 4.5/7.4 = 0.61), which reflects the various distractions from the intended development plan.
