Study Notes

Sprint Events

Sprint Planning is the beginning of a sprint where the development team determines the user stories to be completed during the sprint.
Daily Scrum is a brief meeting where team members share their progress, plan for the day, and discuss any issues they're facing.
Sprint Review is a meeting where the team presents the completed user stories to stakeholders.
Sprint Retrospective is a meeting where the team reflects on the sprint and identifies areas for improvement.

User Story Points

Story points measure the complexity and effort of a user story.
Higher story points indicate more complex user stories.

Mendix App Directory Structure

JavaSource folder stores Java classes organized by subfolders:
- Root folder: Contains the base classes for a module.
- Actions: Contains business logic actions.
- Datasets: Contains data access logic.
- Proxies: Contains data access logic.
Javascriptsource folder stores JavaScript files.
Resources folder stores configuration files, HTML files, and Java files.
Theme folder contains CSS files for application styling.

Version Control

Team Server manages app versions and allows collaboration among developers.
Committing an app to Team Server allows other developers to access updates.
Branches are used to create independent lines of development.
Mainline represents the primary development line.
Tagged versions are used to mark specific revisions of the app.
Merging combines revisions from different branches.
Advanced merge and Port fix are used to merge revisions into and from any line.
Quick fix is used to quickly merge a revision into the mainline.
Merge feature branch merges a complete branch into the mainline.

XPaths

XPaths are used to navigate and select elements in the Mendix app structure.
XPaths are used in various widgets, including List Views, Reference Selectors, and Labels.
XPaths are also used in microflows, specifically within 'Retrieve' actions.
Start typing an XPath using '['.
Use Ctrl+Space to open the XPath auto-complete menu.

XPath Examples

[Status='Cancelled'] retrieves all vacation requests with the status 'Cancelled'.
[VacationRequest.VacationRequest_Submitter='[%CurrentUser%]'] retrieves all vacation requests submitted by the current user.
