Artifact: Sprint 2 Retrospective — Tracked Actions
Aurora Checkout Redesign -- retrospective actions -- exercises co-12.
| # | Raw observation | Tracked action | Owner | Done-signal |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Nobody noticed the staging outage for a day. | Add a staging-environment health check as a standing standup item. | Priya | Appears as a standing standup line item, confirmed present for two consecutive sprints. |
| 2 | The deploy pipeline broke twice. | Add an automated smoke test as the first stage of the deploy pipeline, so breakage is caught before reaching later stages. | Bayu | The pipeline dashboard shows the new smoke-test stage green on the next three consecutive deploys. |
| 3 | Pairing on the cart-persistence code helped a lot. | Continue pairing specifically for any story touching legacy cart-persistence code (not team-wide pairing). | PM | The next legacy-touching backlog story is explicitly paired, confirmed on the sprint board. |
| 4 | Planning poker took too long because half the team wasn't prepared. | Send a standing "read these stories before the session" note the day before every planning-poker session. | PM | The next session finishes in 30 minutes or less for a similarly sized slice (baseline: the prior session took 55 minutes). |
