Tests? We don’t got no stinking tests!
They have an okay manual testing practice, but adding automated testing is on my list. While it’s simpler to add unit tests off the bat, I am thinking we get E2E first. This is so we can make sure regressions of the input/output are not present while we make other changes. We can add unit and integration as we go.
This isn’t a body shop consulting company. It’s in insurance, but they are retooling the company to be engineering focused, which is why I joined them.
- mmsimanga 3y agoHow long have you been at the company? Did you just join? I ask because no company is perfect. The hardest part which is what many comments seem to be saying is figuring out the "real" problems. Let's take documentation. I tend to be the person who onboards people for source control. There is indeed a document buried in previous version of SharePoint that was not migrated to the new SharePoint. We only get new a couple new employees a year so it is just quicker for me to have a 30 minute session with new employees than to figure out how to migrate all the documents from the old SharePoint site. The 30 minute session is better than any documentation I will ever write. New employee gets to ask questions and so on.
- icedchai 3y agoGood luck. With 100+ engineers and practices that have been in place for years, it'll be very difficult for you to make major changes in a reasonable amount of time.
