Samuel Biram developed the Edit Availability Sessions feature for the NHSDigital/nbs-appointments-management-service repository, enabling targeted editing of availability sessions to improve scheduling flexibility and data integrity. He introduced an Edit mode to the SetAvailabilityRequest, updating core components such as the AvailabilityService, SetAvailabilityFunction, and the document store to support precise session modifications. Using C#, Azure Functions, and Cosmos DB, Samuel expanded validation logic and enhanced the integration and unit test suites, covering both typical and edge cases. His work demonstrated thorough engineering discipline, ensuring robust test automation and validation, and delivered a maintainable solution that reduces risk of unintended changes.

Month 2025-01 focused on delivering targeted editing of availability sessions and strengthening validation and test coverage. Key feature delivered: Edit Availability Sessions by introducing Edit mode to SetAvailabilityRequest, with coordinated updates to AvailabilityService, SetAvailabilityFunction, and the document store to support editing a specific session. Validation for edit mode was added and the test suite expanded to cover editing one or multiple sessions and edge cases. The work was supported by a series of commits across the repository, including enhancements to request handling and thorough testing: 54a66d9d5f58295abe00870fc02176b933664db5; 7963910e892c6d7fcf4754ef7207414dff3ec278; 319b99677b10889284e17259e5a7d6147590e751; bc93c0a0a38ddd693d9cc4934fc600a5b9880469; bda5408f16610d956d18a429708f151c14a0505c; 9a196fcd627f66a9b495e84db764f6c50ba538d5; 55a77f8ac66895c42f677eacf06149a6705c2b2e. Impact and business value: targeted session edits reduce risk of unintended changes, improve scheduling flexibility, and enhance data integrity. The expanded test suite provides confidence in changes and helps prevent regressions as the system evolves.
