How Big Should Our Project Team Be?
• There isn't a 1 size fits all – Team size directly relates to the
application size & requirements – Small developments = 1 team
member with multiple responsibilities
– Large developments = multiple teams with multiple members & separate responsibilities

How competent in Java do I need to be for ADF?
“Not everybody who writes needs the skills of Shakespeare. But everybody who writes need to follow rules of spelling and grammar in order to make themselves understood. Every programmer on the project needs to know Java as a programming language and to be able to write syntactically correct Java code. But not everyone who writes Java code needs to be a virtuoso with full command of inheritance, interfaces and inner classes.”
Sten Vesterli’s Oracle ADF Enterprise Application Development Made Simple

Java EE Skills • At least 1 team member should be knowledge in the following Java
EE technologies: – Servlets – HTTP Session – Vanilla JSF and the JSF lifecycle
• Be warned – Some highly skilled Java EE programmers will not want to work with ADF – They are trained and knowledgeable in core Java EE technologies and competing
frameworks – Typically will have open-source preference – And human nature dictates experts can be defensive of their preferences – Be careful they don't convince you against why you chose ADF in the first place
![Page 17: Oracle ADF Architecture TV - Planning & Getting Started - Team, Skills and Development Environments](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051411/5461e9c9af7959422a8b4af4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

ADF Competence
• Ensure to have at least one experienced ADF programmer on the team
• Put all the team on ADF training • Preferably both! • Start with a small project – THINK BIG (not the
other way round)
• ADF is a massive framework with a huge array of features • Teams will struggle to learn everything in a short timeframe • = A large risk to ambitious deadlines or complicated projects

Tools to Assist ADF Developers
• Source version control software – e.g. SVN
• Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) software
• Automated testing software – e.g. JUnit, Selenium, OATS
• Build & Continuous Integration (CI) software – e.g. Ant, ojdeploy, Hudson, Cloud Developer Services
• Others? – e.g. SoapUI, FireBug, UI design tools...

Developer PCs – General Rules
• For any development team over 1 person – Standardize developer PC setup – Document everything & update this periodically
• Download and keep the JDeveloper install files from Oracle • Standardize on
– One JDeveloper edition (e.g. studio edition) – Set of extensions – Patches
• Track carefully what version of JDeveloper each application uses
![Page 25: Oracle ADF Architecture TV - Planning & Getting Started - Team, Skills and Development Environments](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051411/5461e9c9af7959422a8b4af4/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
25 Copyright © 2013, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
Developer PCs - JDeveloper • JDeveloper installations need to cater for
– Build scripts that assume location of services – Case sensitive build scripts – Moving between operating systems
• Standardize base installation location & allow for multiple installs – Standardize the directory case across all installations – Do not use spaces or special characters – C:\Oracle\JDeveloper\JDev111160 or C:\Oracle\JDeveloper\JDev112200
• Standardize "system" installation location too – Especially useful for requesting Virus Scanner corporate exemptions
(more soon) – Be mindful however different OS versions do move this by default
![Page 26: Oracle ADF Architecture TV - Planning & Getting Started - Team, Skills and Development Environments](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051411/5461e9c9af7959422a8b4af4/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
26 Copyright © 2013, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
Developer PCs – JDeveloper Configuration
• JDeveloper Configuration: document and standardize on – Any changes to ide.conf or jdev.conf – Any Tools – Preferences updates – Integrated WLS configurations (consider WLST scripts) – Database connections – Change control connections – Application server connections
![Page 27: Oracle ADF Architecture TV - Planning & Getting Started - Team, Skills and Development Environments](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051411/5461e9c9af7959422a8b4af4/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Developer PCs – Hardware Requirements • Oracle dictates minimum hardware requirements • But these are the minimum, developers' productivity will suffer • JDeveloper is memory and IO intensive, and has lots of windows
• The productivity of developers will be enhanced by: – Additional memory (4GB minimum) – Large displays (24") – SSDs (or at minimum 7200RPM or
Hybrid HDD) – Faster CPUs

Developer PCs - Performance
Virus scanners: • Potentially major silent killer
of JDeveloper performance • McAfee virus scanner worst
offender • Ensure to put in appropriate
Java exemptions • Get ready for a fight with
enterprise policy bureaucrats

Developer PCs - Browsers • Preconfigure PCs with every browser possible
– Enterprise apps: even test with browsers that aren’t corporate standard to identify issues early
– Encourage developers to use a different browser each day – Previous versions of IE may require VMs as they can't coexist – Consider same setup for QA PCs as well – Consider browser extensions such as Firebug
![Page 30: Oracle ADF Architecture TV - Planning & Getting Started - Team, Skills and Development Environments](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051411/5461e9c9af7959422a8b4af4/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

Development/Test/Production Environments
• Enterprises typically support 3 types of platforms to assist development: development/test/production
• Typically one set per system or application • Change control process
– Enhancement & bug fixes recorded in change control system – Allocated to developers on approval – Are never applied straight to production – First developed in “development” – Once completed tested in (1 of many) “test” environments – Once ready migrated to “production” for users
Production
Test
Development
![Page 35: Oracle ADF Architecture TV - Planning & Getting Started - Team, Skills and Development Environments](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051411/5461e9c9af7959422a8b4af4/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
35 Copyright © 2013, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
Development/Test/Production Environments
• Development/test/prod considerations – Ownership of each environment – Change control procedures – Change control software – Who manages patching/updating – Team communications & notifications
Production
Test
Development
![Page 36: Oracle ADF Architecture TV - Planning & Getting Started - Team, Skills and Development Environments](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051411/5461e9c9af7959422a8b4af4/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
36 Copyright © 2013, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
Development Environment
• Development environment – Typically 1 per system – Developers share & work with code in
development – Little administrative control, backups not always
required – Code can be inherently bug prone, incomplete,
the wrong version, experimental – Required early on in system lifecycle
Production
Test
Development
![Page 37: Oracle ADF Architecture TV - Planning & Getting Started - Team, Skills and Development Environments](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051411/5461e9c9af7959422a8b4af4/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
37 Copyright © 2013, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
Testing Environments • Testing environment(s)
– Code formally released from development for testing
– One of a number of environments, e.g. • QA testing, nightly sanity build & deployments,
automated regression testing, user acceptance testing, load/stress testing, release testing
– Ideally rebuilt from production regularly – Ideally a duplicate of production systems + changes – Not required at the beginning of system lifecycle – However ideally should be built early on Production
Test
Development
![Page 38: Oracle ADF Architecture TV - Planning & Getting Started - Team, Skills and Development Environments](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051411/5461e9c9af7959422a8b4af4/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
38 Copyright © 2013, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
Production Environments
• Production environment – Most important environment – Strict administrative controls – Backups critical – Code only migrated once passed all tests – Single point of truth for “released”
development code
Production
Test
Development
![Page 39: Oracle ADF Architecture TV - Planning & Getting Started - Team, Skills and Development Environments](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051411/5461e9c9af7959422a8b4af4/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

ADF Environments
• Each environment split into database and WLS • Test/production environments inherently more
complex (e.g. LDAP servers, web servers, clustering. Covered later in course)
Production
Test
Development
![Page 40: Oracle ADF Architecture TV - Planning & Getting Started - Team, Skills and Development Environments](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051411/5461e9c9af7959422a8b4af4/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)

ADF Environments
• ADF applications on the same ADF Runtimes can share WLS environments
• But different ADF Runtimes require different WLS servers
Production
Test
Development
![Page 41: Oracle ADF Architecture TV - Planning & Getting Started - Team, Skills and Development Environments](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051411/5461e9c9af7959422a8b4af4/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
41 Copyright © 2013, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
ADF “Database” Environments
• Database changes can have large impact on ADF developers
• Options – One development database only – Separate database per team – Separate database per developer PC
• Who manages patches/updates?
Development
![Page 42: Oracle ADF Architecture TV - Planning & Getting Started - Team, Skills and Development Environments](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051411/5461e9c9af7959422a8b4af4/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
42 Copyright © 2013, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
ADF “WLS” Environments • Development WLS may be unnecessary as
developers have an integrated WLS with JDeveloper
• Counter arguments – A dedicated development environment gives
developers another environment to play and collaborate
– Integrated WLS doesn’t reflect production WLS environments
– Sharing web service development required dedicated WLS
Development

How do Independent Software Vendors support clients on multiple releases?
How to support multiple releases?
Do we keep development and test servers for each release?
How do we deal with outmoded hardware, O/S, servers tech?
What about production copies to test against?

I was just on the phone with our local Oracle sales office. They want to sell us a full Oracle cloud based
solution for our development efforts.
Can it really do everything we need?
