I think the size of the team would be a big factor too.
One to three people (maybe) working on a web app can develop against prod and ship right to prod without breaking things too badly, 99% of the time.
Once you have >10 people working on a product, and committing changes in parallel, I'd wager it's impossible to avoid breakages, even with dev/prod/test environments
- withinboredom 4y agoWe had ~50-100 devs working on that system on any given day ... but only around 5-10 merges per day. However, each team was responsible for a given area of the code (through convention, not any hard rules), so in reality, each area of code was only touched by 2-3 people at a time.
