Compiling and running your team's code could be the most powerful excercise to stay connected with the engineering part. Way too often I would discover that some functionality declared as 'done' cannot be demonstrated in any way, and such discoveries initiate discussions leading to meaningful decisions.
- lordnacho 8y agoYeah exactly. I see it as a form of QA. It's not serious if discovered early, but I've come across times when there was some new dependency I didn't have, forcing me to google how to install it. So then I tell the team and someone will update the docs. Basically, if only the people who wrote something can compile/execute it, it isn't done.
