Purpose

This analysis names the people and groups who have a stake in the Weather Data (Day 25) project, a solution to the day-25 assignment of Udemy's 100 Days of Code: The Complete Python Pro Bootcamp, and classifies each one on a power/interest grid so the project knows how closely to involve them. The stakeholder IDs (S01 to S03) are the IDs every other artifact uses for owners, reviewers and RACI (Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, Informed) assignments. The terms follow the Domain Dictionary DICT-001. The method is the power/interest grid: the quadrant decides how often and with what deliverable a stakeholder is addressed.

The Product Owner stated S01, S02 and S03, the Power and Interest levels of S01, the quadrant of S01, and the deliverables of S02 and S03. The Power and Interest levels of S02 and S03 were not stated; they are proposed here and are open for confirmation by the reviewer.

Stakeholder Summary Table

ID Name Role/Title Organization Power Level Interest Level Quadrant Primary Concern (Business Language)
S01 Jens Tirsvad Nielsen Course participant; Product Owner, developer and reviewer Tirsvad (personal learning project) HIGH HIGH Manage Closely A correct, tested and documented solution of the assignment that is worth keeping and showing
S02 Udemy coursists Fellow course participants who share code and compare solutions Udemy course community (external) LOW HIGH Keep Informed Readable, runnable code that uses the lectures' names, with README instructions to run it
S03 GitHub viewers Visitors who browse the repository for ideas Public (external) LOW LOW Monitor A clear repository description, topics and README, and no runtime dependencies to install

Power/Interest Classification Rationale

  • Manage Closely (S01): S01 decides scope, writes and checks the code, and reviews every artifact, so power and interest are both high. S01 is author and reviewer of the same documents; no independent reviewer exists in this project (see the conflict table).
  • Keep Informed (S02): S02 cannot change the scope or accept a deliverable, so power is low. They compare solutions with their own, so interest in the code's readability and in the way to run it is high. They need the code and the README, not a say in the plan.
  • Monitor (S03): S03 arrive by chance, do not take part and cannot influence the project, so power and interest are low. Their first impression is the repository page, which is why description, topics, README, wiki and screenshot are checked once.

Primary Concerns and FURPS+ Mapping

FURPS+ stands for Functionality, Usability, Reliability, Performance, Supportability and the added constraints (design, implementation, interface, physical).

ID Concern FURPS+ attribute
S01 The program behaves as the day-25 lectures describe: reading with csv and with pandas, conversion, average, maximum, row selection, creation and export Functionality
S01 Behaviour is proven by tests that use temporary files and never touch a file of the user Reliability
S01 Every step is a branch and a pull request, reviewed before the next Supportability
S02 The code is readable and keeps the lectures' names (data, temperatures, temp_list, data_dict, average_temp, monday) Usability
S02 The README tells how to create the .venv, run the program and run the tests on their operating system Usability
S03 The repository page says what the project is, with description, topics, README and a wiki in English, Danish and Bahasa Melayu Usability
S03 The README and the wiki show what the program prints, in a real screenshot Usability
S03 Nothing must be installed to run the csv part apart from Python itself Implementation (constraint)

Communication Requirements

ID Channel Frequency Deliverable Phase / Milestone
S01 Pull request review in the git host Once per milestone Pull request with Closes #N lines and the review record Every milestone (PP-001)
S02 README in the repository Once, updated when the program changes Set-up, run and test instructions per operating system MIL-001, completed in MIL-005
S03 Repository description, topics and README Once, updated when the program changes Description, topics and README overview MIL-001, checked in MIL-005
S03 Wiki of the repository Once Pages Home, Home.da and Home.ms with a short description, the functions and how to run it MIL-005
S03 README and wiki Once The screenshot of the program running MIL-005

Conflicting Interests and Mitigations

Conflict Stakeholders Mitigation
S02 wants plain code in the style of the lecture; S01 wants constants, tests, Doxygen comments and packaging, which add structure S01, S02 Keep the lectures' identifiers and flow; put the extra structure in separate places (constants.py, a path parameter) so the functions stay readable
S03 wants nothing to install; the second half of the lectures cannot run without pandas S01, S03 [project].dependencies stays empty; pandas is the optional extra pandas (and part of dev), and the csv part imports without it
S01 is author and reviewer, so a review is not independent S01 Use the QC checklists as the objective measure, record every review as an RC-* (marked Mode: autonomous, not independent), and treat the pull request as the second look; recorded as a plan risk in PP-001

Traceability Analysis

Business Goal Alignment

Stakeholder Concern Business Case objective
S01 Program behaves as the day-25 lectures describe BC-001 objectives 1 to 7
S01 Tests use temporary files only BC-001 objective 10
S01 Every step is a branch and a pull request BC-001 objective 12
S02 Readable code with the lectures' names BC-001 objective 8
S02 README with run and test instructions BC-001 objectives 9 and 11
S03 Description, topics, README and wiki on the repository page BC-001 objective 13
S03 A real screenshot in the README and on the wiki BC-001 objective 14
S03 Nothing to install for the csv part BC-001 objective 9
