When the boss skips town

This week my boss left town. A patch release went in but needed a patch release itself. That also went in.

We have an intern and I didn't quite know how much freedom to give. We deploy on WebLogic 10.3 so there are limitations with what one can build. Also my experience with that platform enables me to see issues beforehand.

Additionally, I came up with a deployment idea. The intern knew nothing of ears. I am also struggling to explain mocking, as I just read the tutorial myself.  The main algorithm of the app I came up with as well. I even just now writing this came up with an idea for a DISPLAY_WHEN column that is a velocity template to determine if a question is displayed or not.

In other news, I've been working with bndtools on Eclipse Mars. I've been trying to do it right: interfaces with javadoc and unit tests will be mockito like the intern is doing. We will see how much that slows things down.
