Logical and physical design required to incorporate therequired changes.
JAD sessions / walkthroughs to vet the design and obtainsignoff of the technical specifications.
Development of recent code and modification of existing code(online, batch and workstation) to implement the design as signed off in thetechnical specifications.
Interface with the mid-tier developers.
Ensure that the appropriate QA technical standards areincorporated into all artefacts and system code.
Preparation of test data and code unit testing.
Participation in integration testing including input to theintegration test plan, setup of the test environment, creation of test data,execution of integration tests with the BA’s and other developers, recording oftest results and defect repair.
Planning and participation in code retrofit with otherdevelopers that are modifying the same LCS code in other projects.
Analysis of reported defects and corrections required toeliminate the defects.
Use of Ministry mandated management tools for codelibraries.
