Feb 1, 2025February 2025 highlights substantial improvements across NHSDigital/connecting-party-manager, focusing on release management, CI/CD reliability, and extended product capabilities. Delivered a multi-environment release workflow with versioning, changelog governance, and webhook enhancements to streamline deployments and release visibility. Launched the Product Search API (Lambda-backed endpoint with Swagger definitions and tests) to accelerate product discovery. Refactored Accredited Systems handling to support add/replace/delete operations and improved tag propagation to devices. Strengthened testing and quality gates with enhanced changelog integration tests in LDIF, plus edge-case coverage for product team creation. These efforts reduced deployment risk, increased release velocity, and improved governance and QA coverage across environments.

Jan 1, 2025January 2025 performance highlights for NHSDigital/connecting-party-manager: Delivered key features across Accredited Systems (AS), release management, and API documentation, with a strong emphasis on business value, data integrity, and deployment traceability. Improvements to the AS lifecycle include data model hardening, enhanced add/modify processing in SDS, LDIF standardization, and support for deletion of fields from AS and MHS, complemented by expanded test coverage. Release management spanned multiple versions with structured release branches and comprehensive changelogs to support deployment and auditability. OpenAPI/Swagger documentation was enhanced for clearer tags and refined request/response schemas to improve API usability for consumers. In parallel, we stabilized CI by skipping flaky EPR integration tests and aligned tests with new data in the S3 bucket.
