Today is the day for our sprint review, sprint retrospective and sprint planning. We presented our first prototype to our
client, Alistair Morgan and to the other employees of KPMG, Brendan Marmont, Nicola Duncan and Davinia Sheward.
Our supervisor came along to the sprint review as well. Our first prototype is all about the count and comparison of the
first call fix (FCF) and non FCF. A graph and a table was displayed on excel through a pivot chart which was
connected to our database on sql server. After the sprint review and sprint retrospective, we went through with our
sprint planning for our second prototype and Alistair taught us how to estimate our time for our backlog items by
playing planning poker and we discussed what product backlog items we are going to include for our second
prototype.
Week 8:
We recreated, renamed and inserted the necessary tables on MS Visual Studio for consistency purposes. We also
started populating our tables. Our data dictionary, star schema diagram and document for our first prototype have
been finalised, approved and signed off by the client.

I'm sick and I've got a sleeping disorder, but finally managed to have a working method for populating the
miscellaneous table. Created another view that works.

During the sprint review at 1.30pm, we showed Nicola, Greig and Zak what we did the past few weeks to develop our
second prototype. Although this wasn't entirely finished, the second prototype we have done is much better, more
accurate and presents relevant information compared to the first prototype. We have all agreed to stop it at this point
and not continue sprint 3 as we are running out of time and still needed to complete the necessary documents
required for AUT.
We also need to setup a meeting with Greig next week to talk about tidying up our project for KPMG and also talk
about the requirements for AUT.
