You don’t have to toss out (all) your other toolsYou don’t need a large team to support 100s of users!
![Page 11: Building a Giant Atlassian Universe to Take Over the World](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/554f8fe9b4c905d25b8b515b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
FIS Software Development Lifecycle!• Software quality and accuracy are paramount!• Gigantic process! CMMI Level 3 based SDLC and project
management process set - FISSP!• FISSP is methodology independent; defines the what, not the how!• Tools support the process; they do not define the process!• Our Atlassian integration project began in April, 2009!
![Page 12: Building a Giant Atlassian Universe to Take Over the World](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/554f8fe9b4c905d25b8b515b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Our Tools Philosophy!• The primary intent three years ago was to evolve our software
development methods toward a more incremental and continuous process!• Implement new technology tools (Atlassian suite, Subversion, others) to
support this transformation.!• This model is descriptive, not prescriptive (step 1, step 2, etc.) – teams
adopt specific practices to achieve goals and benefits • Software development workflow is guided/loosely constrained as
opposed to controlled/highly constrained
![Page 13: Building a Giant Atlassian Universe to Take Over the World](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/554f8fe9b4c905d25b8b515b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Our Tools Philosophy!• Software development workflow is documented and enabled within Jira, but
we have not constrained the tool to force compliance • Team members are expected to follow the workflow and the rules • Some rules are absolute and are highly constrained, for example, code
check-in/check-out • Some fields are required • OOB = out of the box. For the most part, we are using the ability to
configure Jira, but not the ability to highly customize it
Guided (loosely constrained)vs.
Controlled (highly constrained)

Workflow!JIs and development workflow
![Page 15: Building a Giant Atlassian Universe to Take Over the World](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/554f8fe9b4c905d25b8b515b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Using JIRA for Financials!• Annual budget process!• Portfolio Item is a major
budget line item!• Every Requirement JI must
link upstream to a Portfolio Item JI!
![Page 16: Building a Giant Atlassian Universe to Take Over the World](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/554f8fe9b4c905d25b8b515b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Managing Requirements!• Requirement JIs represent
software requirements!• Subtasks define standard work!• Requirement JIs beget
Enhancement JIs!• Traceability (large grain)!• Requirements in Subversion!• Introducing Balsamiq!
![Page 17: Building a Giant Atlassian Universe to Take Over the World](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/554f8fe9b4c905d25b8b515b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Managing Requirements!• Next level of
detail: Require-ments workflow!

Know yourself! Align your culture to your processes and tools, assess Flexibility vs. Control To take over the world, you need a plan OOB=less work to implement and maintain!
![Page 19: Building a Giant Atlassian Universe to Take Over the World](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/554f8fe9b4c905d25b8b515b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Managing Source Code!• Primary tool is Subversion!
• Also looking at Mercurial!
• Enhancements in JIRA!
• Traceable to Requirements!
• Agile development (Greenhopper)!
• Test case driven development!
• Integrated security!
• Mandatory code reviews!
![Page 20: Building a Giant Atlassian Universe to Take Over the World](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/554f8fe9b4c905d25b8b515b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Custom Integrations!• Subversion commits dependent on
JIRA issue links!
• Code branches locked/unlocked from Confluence!
• Subversion project access tied into JIRA/Crowd groups!
• JIRA workflow transition counters!
• Auto creation of issues!
• Auto-switching issue types!
![Page 21: Building a Giant Atlassian Universe to Take Over the World](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/554f8fe9b4c905d25b8b515b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Builds and Deployments!• Continuous integration builds!
• Cherry-picking builds!
• Ant or Maven 2 (Artifactory)!
• Local and remote auto-deploys!

!
![Page 22: Building a Giant Atlassian Universe to Take Over the World](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/554f8fe9b4c905d25b8b515b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Testing!• Defect JIs are linked to
Enhancement JIs (as applicable)!• Traceability!• Other testing tools: Quality Center,
QTP, Performance Center, LoadRunner!
• Use of linking for cross-project Defect JIs!
![Page 23: Building a Giant Atlassian Universe to Take Over the World](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/554f8fe9b4c905d25b8b515b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Additional Quality Assurance!
• Mandatory code reviews!• Only authorized code changes allowed!• Junit for automated unit tests via Bamboo!• Automatic running of test suites on new builds!• Static code scanning in developer local workspaces!• More comprehensive code scanning of built code (JTest / Fortify)!• All historical issue data is available for reporting and analysis!
![Page 24: Building a Giant Atlassian Universe to Take Over the World](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103016/554f8fe9b4c905d25b8b515b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Balancing Trade-offs!
• All aboard, or See you later?!
• Our way or the highway!• Centralized control vs delegated!
