Engineering Process

Our goal is to deploy things with very little overhead. To that end, we follow a systematic process for our work.

Github and Code Checkouts

• Checkout your branch with your initials, and a summary of what you're doing (i.e. wf__fix_channels)

• Always pull master daily, and before you issue a pull request, so it can be easily merged

• Issue a pull request stating that the change is

• Always start your 'next task' from master

Continuous Integration

• Your code should be green for the entire suite

• We use DroneCI for this

Check ins and code commits

• Someone else should review your code and give you approval to merge it

• Once it has been reviewed, merge your code into master

• At the end of the day, or when it's convenient, spend 10 - 30 minutes reviewing other code that has been committed, and give feedback

• When code is deployed to production, take a few minutes and verify that it's actually operational

• Keep your code changes/pull requests small. Do the smallest thing you can on each code commit
