Is your organization doing anything to ensure new devs are productive from day one? How do you guys handle local environments for the code you are working on? I am trying to get my company to enable teams to create their own workstation image that contains all the dev tools and local application-related infrastructure needed for that team to be productive. Has anyone done something similar?
Both are valuable, but which should be the priority? Assuming finite hours in a day, how much time should be spent working on your actual work vs. learning about the customer vs. learning about technology you haven't worked with before?
I finally read "Old Man and the Sea". I have tried to start it many times, but the beginning was just so slow. Has anyone here read it? What are your thoughts on this Ernest Hemingway classic?
I guess this may be standard, but I'm running unit tests as part of my CI. Integration tests that can't be mocked go in the CD pipeline. For automated UAT, I have a branch on the CD pipeline that runs on the agent after a deploy, but in order to make the agent more agnostic I am toying with the idea of running the tests on a VM or on the deployed location.
