WHAT DID I DO THIS WEEK?

To be honest, this week, I didn't make the needed progress as I would have expected. This week, I opened 3 pull requests, one was a pull request draft for writing unit tests on a certain patch I provided for another pull request and currently now it needs some end to end testing. But the bad part about this was I didn't have lots of experience writing unit tests. So the whole concept was a bit confusing and I have to use lots of advanced functionalities using pytest. This has led me to the thought that i might need to ask for an extension If I can't deliver as required. Secondly I have another daunting task which was to write some unit tests again for another issue related to the overall performance of the web services. And due to the difference in time zones between my mentors, communication is not 100% fluid. It could help if the responses were a bit faster. But I have myself to blamed partly as I have not been up to the gear.

 

WHAT I PLAN DOING THIS WEEK>>>>>

I'm sure it's obvious. I want to improve. I want to be able to get those 3 pull requests ready this week. Else I will be requiring an extension. So I hope to give a positive feedback about the 3 pull requests and merging them. So I can be in sync with the deadline and prepare for the final evaluation.
