I joined the project in the second phase of development, building WinForm User Interface Components, Web Services and Business Components in Visual Studio 2005. The primary languages used were Visual Basic.NET and C#.
A number of Oracle stored procedures/packages were also built using the Toad development tool. Test coverage was completed by developing a number of test cases in NUnit.
The complete project was managed by a build process and used MKS as the source control. It was very important to develop clean, well commented code. During the project I performed a number code reviews on other developers work.
