Engineering processes improvement
Increase transparency and effectiveness of Wikimedia Foundation's engineering efforts
|
Project justification
[edit | edit source]The growth of the Wikimedia Foundation's engineering programs and the scale of our ambitions necessitates more systematic thinking about all aspects of engineering process and engineering management. This includes:
- Public documentation of projects, status updates, summary reports, and current resource allocation
- Appropriately resourced code review / deployment / release train for both MediaWiki core and extensions
- Effective work methodologies for all Wikimedia engineering teams
- Selection of appropriate process support tools, ideally open source
- Optimized internal and external request tracking and resource allocation
Current priorities
[edit | edit source]Draft for discussion at 6/14 engineering management meeting
- (Lead: All) Allocate appropriate resources to code review / deployment / release process; develop related resource allocation policy
- (Lead: General Engineering) Continue (based on /Pages organization and related pages) standardization of public reporting / status pages, esp. public resource tracking
- (Lead: Features) Integrate Etherpad notetaking into public wiki pages to ensure visibility of progress
- (Lead: Features/Product) Develop documentation on WMF feature development process
- (Lead: General Engineering) Standardize testing frameworks, increase test coverage, and improve test integration into code review process

[edit | edit source]Alolita, Erik, Rob, Sumana, Ct, Tomasz, Danese had an initial meeting with ThoughtWorks in which we discussed challenges related to the code review/deployment/release management process and engagement of the broader open source community, primarily to help evaluate a possible engagement on continued process improvements; Erik will follow-up.
