Use Case Development and Testing

Our whole team is working on testing our first use case across our suite of products within the aOS (Andromeda Operating System). We will release this publicly soon, but are finishing some QA first. Some of our testing includes:

  • Multiple team member testing of each of the ADOs individually and varying groups for buildout via our ADO Builder, CLI, and App Builder
  • Schema set up review
  • GraphQL query review for all components of each ADO/Module
  • Copy review
  • Supporting design review
  • Learn Documents to help guide users who are new to the software and includes a User Guide
  • Additional documentation to dig into the nitty gritty of each of the components within the Use Case itself
  • Technical documentation

Below you can see me building our CW721 Auction with a Rates module added. (Full listing of what is available in this use case: CW721, Auction, Marketplace, Splitter, Modules — Rates, Address List)

App Builder beginning build for CW721 Auction with Marketplace

This is just the beginning! The next set of use cases are listed as follows:

  1. Marketplace with Ability to Bid
  2. Crowdfund
  3. Wrapped NFT
  4. CW20-Staking

We are implementing a feedback form as well to support our customers with an easy means of letting us know what bugs you found, features you want, and much more.

Stay tuned for the chain deployment this week and keep grinding!
