What a nightmare, couldn't think of a company that deserved it more
What a nightmare, couldn't think of a company that deserved it more
Very interesting read, thank you.
And I know what you mean about changes. About twenty years ago something similar happened, and I can't even mention the business because of confidentiality, but this was a business that had been running for 150 years with only two interruptions during that time. I was working on a project, and another guy was making changes unrelated to what I was working on, and it was on a Friday afternoon. Of course, protocol demands that every change, no matter how trivial, even it is as small as chaging a font, requires a testing plan.
Well, he was from out of town and everyone else was tired, and he made one last change and said it was really nothing and it really didn't need to go through the verification process that takes a couples of hours. The IT department agreed, and he got on a plane. While he was in the air heading back to the west coast, they found that the entire plant was down because the change he made affected the core process.
The head of IT and about a dozen others were fired before eight the next morning for skipping the test plan. I don't care how smart someone thinks they are, you gotta verify.
Test, test, test and try not to have a deploy on a Friday, it will ruin your weekend
She used to wake me up with coffee ever morning
