Lots of eyes on our errors

2025-05-23 15:20:44 UTC

I felt that a lot of the pressure from the errors logs we had to research could have been avoided if we were a bit more selective on what is an error vs. what is an unhappy path. lets try to be mindful moving forward. also lets make a kick ass dynatrace dashboard for the next service we make. that way we can just send it to all of our stakeholders and they dont need to nag us 1000 times.

Processes

2025-05-23 18:20:58 UTC

I acknowledge that we faced significant challenges and, regrettably, I believe we collectively fell short in following our established processes. Instances occurred where stories were pushed to Production without accompanying comments, test cases, or proper testing. Additionally, there was a lack of communication regarding the readiness or completion of stories, and they were often not updated to the correct statuses. This resulted in considerable disorganization. While we were undoubtedly doing our best with the resources available, I believe that by strategizing, we can identify ways to improve our processes moving forward.
