PROFILE

Thomas Oddsund

Worked on the kartverket/frisk-backend repository to enhance backend reliability, maintainability, and developer efficiency. Focused on refactoring core architecture for improved testability by introducing class-based service designs and centralizing configuration management using Kotlin and Ktor. Strengthened authentication with a dedicated Auth class and stricter UserID typing, while expanding test coverage through new integration and unit tests using JUnit and Testcontainers. Improved CI/CD pipelines with Gradle and CodeQL integration, and addressed critical bugs affecting test reliability and database initialization. Updated documentation to clarify environment variables and testing procedures, resulting in faster, more secure releases and a smoother onboarding process for developers.

Summary for 2025-03: Focused on raising code quality, reliability, and developer velocity. Implemented CI/DevOps enhancements (Gradle CI improvements, CodeQL scanning integration, Dependabot updates for non-security changes, and development environment access configuration). Expanded test infrastructure with improved coverage and reliability: enabled FunctionMetadataRoutesTest to run, added general auth tests, and introduced integration tests for Functions CRUD and FunctionMetadata. Reworked core architecture to improve testability and configurability: moved DB config to AppConfig, externalized Fly config from environment variables, cleaned up platform DB config code, and refactored database and MicrosoftService to injected/class-based designs; converted FunctionService and FunctionMetadataService from singleton to class. Strengthened authentication and typing: stronger UserID typing and a dedicated Auth class, with simplified auth flow. Fixed critical issues and improved stability: FunctionRoutesTest reliability, history cleanup SQL, and ensuring services initialize with the database; removed environment-set config values to prevent overrides. Documentation updated for env vars and test running instructions. Business impact: faster, secure, and more reliable releases; easier onboarding; improved maintainability and test coverage.
