Insights for Building it the Right Way!
Many good product and project teams try to understand different things when they’re asked to build a new feature. But how do we know whether our reasons are actually good enough? Are we tracking user’s activity and feedback about the feature/product? Do we have analytics in place for all our features? How are we validating that key/value is set correctly for various events in analytics while feature development? How about automating these processes with day-to-day testing?
I will cover how we automated analytics and started getting more value out of it after its integration with functional tests and CI. Will also talk about a utility (Sentiment Analyser) we developed which helps us to generate meaningful reports from user’s feedback on daily basis and figuring out issues which we introduced in production with last release.
