Faster feedback loops make for faster developer velocity

The Stack Overflow Podcast - En podkast av The Stack Overflow Podcast

On this sponsored episode of the podcast, Ben and Ryan talk with Matthew Groves, Senior Product Marketing Manager at Couchbase, and Cory House, the founder of Reactjsconsulting.com and a Pluralsight course author, about how to increase velocity without increasing pressure on your engineers, whether cloud native technologies can help (or hurt), and how to design your toolchain so it improves velocity. When some people hear the phrase “developer velocity,” they cringe and think about delivering an increasingly large number of story points during a sprint. Others push to tighten feedback loops for engineers in order to remove the roadblocks between writing code and getting it into production. But few will understand that much of the “feedback” in that loop is human, so giving them a little more slack lets them provide feedback faster. After all, if you want a fast highway, you should have fewer cars.
