Summer Internship: Week 7

Week 7:

Current Week Objectives - Attend Career Interest Meeting and Increase Project Coverage

At the beginning of the week I had the opportunity to run scrum for one day. I learned about the responsibilities a scrum master has and the knowledge they need to have to be able to ensure project is completed quickly and efficiently. I also had to learn about all the stories the team members were working on to be able to run scrum.
This meeting I had an interview with HR for future opportunities at Vanguard. I expressed my interest in returning to Vanguard next summer in the Technology Leadership Program (TLP) which is a 2 year program that has three rotations in different positions throughout Vanguard. In one rotation you can be developing in Mid-Tier in Java, and then be switched to UI developing in Javascript or Java.
My story this week was to increase the coverage of the project; I had to create more J-Units to ensure all possible conditions were covered. I also learned about TDD (Test Driven Development) in the process, which is where you write a test class before writing the class that the test class is for.
Hours Worked: I completed a total of 38.2 hours during my seventh week (July 7th - July11th).

Next Week Objectives - Next week I will be working on the same story, increasing the coverage of the project.
