“Good ideas may not want to be free, but they do want to connect, fuse, recombine. They want to reinvent themselves by crossing conceptual borders. They want to complete each other as much as they want to compete.” ― Steven Johnson

The Annual OpenMRS Conference Hackathons, a place where innovation meets rigorous engineering practices! Is usually an opportunity for community members, teams and architects to engage and get their “hands-in” or “on” OpenMRS and related projects, working on exciting and high priority tasks and challenges, as well as having an opportunity to propose low hanging fruit use cases for groups to work on. It has been a place where we can grow existing skills, learn new skills, and build relationships with others in the community. |

At this year’s OMRS24 Hackathon, as part of our commitment to excellence, we're introducing a new requirement: If there's coding involved, there should be tests! 🤩
If there's coding involved, there should be tests!
As we implement the "Tests Required on all PRs" policy, every team working on engineering tasks will be expected to write tests as they develop their solutions. To support this initiative, expert coaches will be on hand to guide you through the process. But that’s not all—teams with the best test coverage will be eligible for a special award. We’ll be looking for:
Comprehensive Coverage: How well does your test suite cover the codebase?
Diversity of Tests: Are you using a variety of test types to ensure robustness?
Quality: How effective and well-structured are your tests?
This is more than just a hackathon; it’s a chance to improve your coding practices and showcase your testing prowess!
Teams with the best test coverage will be eligible for a special award

NOTE: If you're proposing a topic because you're looking for help on an issue (as opposed to offering yourself up to work on the issue), please fill in the 'Support Needed' column with the type of expertise or help you'd require. |

O3 Bug Bash
Hack away on some tricky bugs & Design QA tickets!
Includes:
Test Writing: Learn how to write tests that will be required on all PRs as of Sept
...
List of tickets HERE
Label with: omrs24bugbash
August: Improvement to testing framework (how a good PR with test coverage should look - Jayasanka Weerasinghe Dennis Kigen)
Docs: More guidance on how to do mocking
Docs: Recipe showing full example/story of how one would test as they build something
...
...
O3 Form Engine Test coverage
...
The React Form Engine is a mission-critical component of the EMR.
Need more test coverage for this!
...
Ensure there are actionable tickets for the team to work on, with super clear descriptions
...
Jayasanka, Samuel Male
...
Feature area: Order Basket
...
Make sure everything’s properly aligned from data model through to frontend; walk through all the flows; check for any safety concerns.
...
Prep for this with Global Support Team in advance
Burke’s support and user testing
...
...
Graphical reports
...
Out of the box graphical reports for the various services offered at the facility. The could include trends against time and pie charts e.g Outpatient/Inpatient dashboards
...
OpenMRS core support to provide the data to populate these charts
Design support to design the layout of these charts
...

Import Export Service
An admin service to seed databases for instance new installations with SQL data.
The export service to backup information selected from a checklist, this might include but not limited to: address information, patient data, concept dictionary and user roles.
We believe that implementing this solution will significantly streamline the data backup process and enhance security measures to protect against data loss.
...
Design support. We have already started working on those features but we would like some design support to help improve the experience on these workflows.

Currently, OpenMRS does not support auto-population
On the React Forms
...
Picture an instance where you have already filled your date of birth, gender and HIV status in a separate form and now you need to fill a few more forms.
Currently OpenMRS doesn’t support auto population of observations from different encounter types so you will have to keep filling these details over and over again (docs)

Validation of the Ampath forms
...
Validating the forms to only appear after a certain condition is met or depending on the Patient’s age/gender e.g Pediatric form should not appear for Adults and Adults and adolescent form should not appear for Children
...
Know how to validate Encounters Types.

Data Exchange between O3 facilities?
...
New Triage form
...
How might we improve the interface of a Triage form to better support providers in that role? Could we do this without creating hard-coded form elements but expand a generic set of patterns that could also be reused in other forms / contexts?
...
Paul Adams
...
System use and data quality monitoring report
...
Can we provide an out-of-the box report that enables implementers to determine if the EMR is being used effectively, and if the data meets basic quality standards.
...
Knowledge of data model, ideas for mapping indicators, and building SQL queries to be used for exports or ETLs.
...
Proposed list of indicators that should be broadly useful across implementations to be provided.

Integration of OpenMRS RefApp with Kenya National Health Terminology Service |
The Open Concept Lab module prepends the URL to be “https://api.knhts.health.go.ke/knhts-api/orgs/MOH-KENYA/collections/CHC/”. — Is this by design? It is easy to change but was there a reason behind this?
