In order to verify that the codebase refactor is correct as new modules are introduced, high-quality manual test cases need to be built up and maintained moving forward. This is useful for the scope of the modernization project and moving forward as the test suites will enable a group of testers to run through them before releases are shipped. Note that Matthew determined Selenium testing will take a very long time (current frame/pop-up based impl. renders it very difficult… these tests can be added later when a new UI is introduced).
In order to verify that code changes pass certification tests, contributors must execute the relevant test cases via the test mapping document. This document is currently being built up (http://open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/Manual_Tests) and will live in openemr/Tests/certification_tests.md.

Objective

The OpenEMR project codebase and user interface can benefit from modern implementation approaches. The project itself is very large and modernizing it will be accomplished in a very fragmentary way that requires a very organized and enthusiastic approach.

Roadmap

(this is intentionally high level)

  • MVC framework with unit tests
  • Manual test cases
  • Normalized directory structure
  • User interface makeover

Manual Test Cases

In order to verify that code changes pass certification tests, contributors must execute the relevant test cases via the test mapping document. This document is currently being built up (http://open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/Manual_Tests) and will live in openemr/Tests/certification_tests.md.

Codebase Refactor

Refactoring the codebase to leverage the MVC design pattern, unit tests, and a more maintainable design is very important.

All project tracking and information is here: http://open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/Codebase_Refactor (please assign yourself to individual tasks).

Frontend Rework

Simply put, our EMR needs a modern makeover.

All project tracking and information is here: http://www.open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/Active_Projects#UI_Improvement (Robert, please create a project page for this so folks can assign themselves to individual work items).

Ongoing Forum Discussions
