Testing schedule for the week

Daily:

After-hours access:

Participants with a valid badge will have access to the Connectathon Floor...

• mornings starting at 7:30 am
• evenings until 11pm Mon-Thurs.   No re-entry is permitted after 9pm.  All Participants must leave the test floor at 11pm.

There is no support from volunteer monitors or technical management outside of the daily Testing Sessions; during after-hours, they will be preparing for the next day.

Daily 'need to know' announcements

The Connectathon venue makes oral announcements impractical.

Please check your email at 9am and 1:30pm each day. We will send twice-daily "need to know" announcements to the na_connectathon email list.

Guidance for Monday's session (No Longer Current)

We hope you've already reviewed the 10 Connectathon Tips from the Pros.

Monday 7:30-10am is for system set-up.  After 10am, we expect you to perform testing. Here is guidance on goals to accomplish during Monday's testing session:

• Configure and connect to tools for your profiles.
• Complete the 5-minute Consistent Time "CT_Client" test
• Content Creators -- submit CDA/C-CDA docs into the samples area of gazelle for evaluation
• Modalities/Evidence Creators -- submit DICOM samples into gazelle and the Central Archive
• Submit media you create to the assigned Monitor -->  XDM and PDI media to monitor George or Raj at table K24 
• It is good practice to hand a monitor your media rather than just dropping it at the table.
• Any other tests labeled "*_Do_This_First" or "*_Read_This_First"
• In general, work on other no-peer tests.
• Then, move on to peer-to-peer tests.

Backup or Experimental Tools

The tools listed in the table below are considered as backups or possibly experimental.

Backup: Tool is available if someone needs to review/resolve an issue by using one of our tools. These are not part of the defined testing protocol.

Experimental: A tool is in development. We may ask you for your help in running a few tests to examine the behavior of our testing software.
