Well, on Friday I spent around 1.5 hours just reviewing a single PR. And I’m not done. I will have to continue my work on it on Monday. Reviewing in our company means understanding the connected use case, then having a look if the coding does what the use case defined. Also we look if the coding is done according to our internal style guide. Since our review is normally done by at least two people, (at most of our apps two people have to accept the PR until it can be merged) one person will see what the other missed. And we often talk about what the other missed, so that we learn.
Concerning angry customers: Our apps are used by several then thousand users. And although our group doesn’t have direct customer contact, we get the bug reports and have to fix them anyway or we have to support the teams who directly work with the customers.
And I just realize that I’m in a very lucky situation. In our company echt use case is tested thoroughly by the responsible QA and PO. And for each use case we write half a dozen (or more) test functions that check the functionality. Normally coding the tests takes more time then coding the use case itself.
Our company is very AI driven, but on the same hand we hear in the regular town halls about the customer satisfaction. And the goal there is to increase it steadily. Our customers are companies, so maybe there’s the difference.
