Pragmatic Enterprise Software Delivery
presentation
Angus MacArthur and Sean Morrison: Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan
Tuesday 4:00:00 pm to 4:45:00 pm

Abstract: Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan (OTPP) is the pension fund for all of the public school teachers in Ontario, Canada. The Plan services 250,000 current and retired teachers and controls 68 billion dollars (CND) in assets. The internal software development team builds and supports multiple applications, most of which are variants upon a common base. These applications serve hundreds of internal and thousands of external users.

The presenters intend to introduce a sampling of the tools and processes they have developed (in Smalltalk) that alleviate the tedium and risk in the building, testing, and deploying of software. Specific topics will include software QA, automatic build creation and configuration management.

Bio: Angus MacArthur has been working in Smalltalk for over a decade in a variety of industries.

Sean Morrison has been developing software in Smalltalk and Jave at OTPP since graduating from the University of Ottawa in 1999. He is also active in the Toronto Smalltalk Users' Group.
