OrangeBoat Summer Plan

• Online Development

  • Everybody needs their sim set up
    • Personal device or Lab sim computer account
    • Who doesn’t have one?
  • Tasks assignment on Notion to be done by REs
  • branch -> ~~lake-test~~ -> main pull request workflow? @sean thoughts?
    • devel branch
    • All work gets pushed to main only if it works at a lake-test
    • All pull requests must have fairly detailed info on the changes
      • Features changed/added
      • Features affected
    • Changes must be at least working in sim to be lake tested

• Offline Development and Lake Tests

  • Bi-weekly/Tri-weekly lake tests?
  • Potential debug days on off-weeks, pending people's availability and lab access
    • Test branch on vehicle and pull request to lake-test
    • Condition: targets are reached
  • REs must create detailed Dry Test and Lake Test procedures for their code’s respective lake test

• DATES ARE TENTATIVE
