November 2024 work focused on delivering a durable data layer for Limited Partnerships and improving frontend validation, with strong test coverage and code quality improvements. Key features delivered: - API: MongoDB-backed persistence for Limited Partnership data (DTOs/DAOs, mapping, service, repository) with persistence of submission user IDs; added enum for name endings; and unit tests for service and mapper; supporting code cleanup. - Web: Partnership name validation enhancements with a 160-character max length (including suffix) and a minimum length reduced to 2; validation runs on keyup and when the name ending suffix changes. Major bugs fixed and quality work: - Code quality improvements and test enhancements across both repos, including removal of a test-only service, import cleanups, JSON annotations in models, and DAO userId updates, improving maintainability and reliability. Overall impact and business value: - Strengthened data integrity for Limited Partnership records with a scalable MongoDB persistence layer, enabling reliable storage and retrieval of submission metadata. - Improved user experience and data quality via enhanced name validation on the web UI, reducing invalid submissions and backend validation errors. - Better maintainability and faster future iterations due to added tests, refactoring, and clearer data models. Technologies and skills demonstrated: - Java data layer design (DTO/DAO, mapping, service and repository) with MongoDB integration. - Frontend validation logic for live validation scenarios. - Unit testing and test-driven improvements; JSON annotations; enum usage; code organization and cleanup.
