Deliverable Report D1.2 Use Cases and Test Suite

WP1 (Community Outreach) focuses on the communication between our project and the wider nanotechnology community. Its ultimate goal is to establish various tools which would enable collaboration with members of the nanotechnology community and to receive feedback on our project. This includes our involvement in the NanoSafety Cluster Database Working Group, a Requirements Analysis, and collaborations with other NanoSafety Cluster projects. The goals are to collaboratively develop interoperability documents together with definitions of personas and use cases that capture the community needs and working practices. Analysis of these requirements results in a global systems design, detailed descriptions of typical use cases, and a series of standardised test cases by which the system implementation can be tested. A major objective too is the development of a sustainability plan, capturing the current and future needs of the community and how they will be met. This deliverable reports on the outcomes of the WP1 task on Definition of personas and use cases (T1.2). There is a strong dependency on the WP1 Task on Requirements Analysis (T1.1). In this report we present our progress as of the end of Year 1 of the project with respect to the development and implementation of use cases to support the nanosafety community. A Requirements Analysis was performed and based on interviews held with people from the NanoSafety Cluster community, we were able to identify four representative personas. In parallel, a number of use cases have been described that are currently undergoing review so as to prioritize them for implementation in year 2 and year 3 of eNanoMapper. Furthermore, we have described already implemented and upcoming testing approaches for these uses cases and the technological solutions used in these use cases. The exact testing approach will be tuned for each use case, depending on the development model of the underlying components. We are currently internally and externally prioritizing these use cases based on a variety of criteria outlined in this report. During the end of year 1 annual eNanoMapper meeting in Sofia, the consortium identified which use cases will be implemented as part of tasks in the DoW other than the task about implementing use cases derived from the community, as those described in this deliverable report.
