Beta testing
We generally roll out changes to CCMDB.accdb to all laptops, and have everyone test them, because we don't have designated testers, or a full testing environment. However, in some situations it makes sense to have only one or a few collectors test a new version of the program. This page explains how to organize that.
Deploying a beta version
Pulling a beta version
You should only pull a beta version if Tina or main office has suggested you do so.
While beta testing is in progress, the beta version will be available at
- Regional Server\\\ad.wrha.mb.ca\WRHA\REGION\SHARED\ICU_DATA_COLLECTION\ Programs/Beta
To pull it, double-click on the "copy_to_local.bat" in that directory.
A freshly pulled beta version may not include the newest Cognos2 data, so any beta tester would need to import that.

details of importing Cognos need to be documented, but out of scope of this page |
Restoring to regular master version from beta version
See Copying down a clean version of CCMDB.accdb
"Rolling out" a beta version
If Tina is not available to roll out a beta version, the instructions in Rolling out changes should give all relevant info to turn a beta into the newest master version.
