<br />With the test plan document, test files, and StateDMI software, RTi, DWR, and <br />CWCB staff will be able to run regression tests and verify the software at any <br />time. As appropriate, tests can be rerun to evaluate impacts of software and <br />HydroBase changes. Once the formal tests are established, they can help ensure a <br />working system and can help new developers better evaluate impacts of their <br />work. <br />141.9 Additional Enhancements. Additional StateDMI updates/enhancements will be <br />made in order to facilitate data processing in SPDSS. Enhancements that have <br />been previously identified and which maybe implemented after discussions with <br />the State include: <br />1. Update software based on changes in HydroBase, for example to handle <br />seasonal water rights for instream flows. <br />2. Add the capability to add a free water right based on a wildcard identifier, so <br />that multiple set commands are not needed. <br />3. Reference water rights using an "absolute" identifier (e.g., a combination of <br />station ID and administration number) rather than the sequential water right <br />number. This will more easily allow the data set to be enhanced over time. <br />4. Reference reservoir accounts using a "absolute" identifier rather than the <br />account number. For example the owner account (name) could be used. If the <br />StateMod software is updated to use anon-sequential number for the account, <br />then name would not need to be used. <br />5. Remove create*TS () commands, which initialize time series files that <br />have more than one time series. An evaluation of the software as it has been <br />used in production indicates that this enhancement could improve usability. <br />6. Need a way to read water rights for a structure in HydroBase using a different <br />WDID. This is necessary because sometimes a structure spans several <br />districts and the water rights maybe stored in HydroBase in a district other <br />than the headgate. <br />7. Enhance network printing. In particular, the current software has two print <br />dialogs, which can be confusing. Print setup should be streamlined. <br />8. Manage commands files and associated results in a tabbed panel, allowing <br />multiple commands files to be visible and be processed at one time. <br />9. Various cosmetic changes to command dialogs, for example to make data <br />entry fields larger. <br />10. Update commands that use adate/time to enforce a precision more explicitly. <br />Users sometimes do not put in date/times to the correct precision. <br />11. Convert to use the more precise structure_decree_summarytable rather than <br />the structure.dcr_capacity column, for decreed capacity (sum of net absolute <br />water rights). The former properly handles structures with flow and storage <br />rights. Changing this approach will result in some changes in data and <br />therefore the change should be phased in with a command parameter option. <br />25 <br />
