What do you think of Continuous Deployment, where you push code to main and, if the tests pass, that code is automatically deployed to production?
@simon It Depends. If you’ve got a test suite you trust, and the tooling to handle database migrations and feature flagging it’s great. Ship early, ship often.
If you don’t have those things you’re in for a whole world of pain.
@simon it also somewhat depends on how risky deployments are. For a typical web app, sure, ship it. Currently I’m working on distributed embedded devices, where I’m not at the level of confidence I feel would be needed to do automated releases on push to the entire fleet.
