In this presentation I'll discuss some of the steps the New York Public Library has recently taken to define and develop a QA/Testing framework, in the context of the Library's recent adoption of Agile development practices for its Digital Repository and other project teams.

It's 10 a.m. and your inbox has an 'Urgent' message from the State Librarian asking for an update on the “NCIP thing” for the statewide project first mentioned (to you) yesterday. You know there’s an open source “NCIP Toolkit” which supports the variety of systems involved in your statewide project, but you’ve also heard it’s pure Java and that’s not your cuppa. Sure it supports discovery with multiple ILS types, as well as resource sharing, patron empowerment, etc. etc. but is it possible to bridge those worlds? After a few minutes of searching you have a plan for ticking-off the “multi-vendor NCIP support” box on the project requirements. We’ll demonstrate a proof-of-concept implementation for PHP developers and report on the issues we encountered and our solutions.
