Where does Jackpocket take DORA metrics from here?

Where does Jackpocket take DORA metrics from here? Find out how Sleuth filled a software development hole to help Jacpocket put what they learned from the "Accelerate" book into practice. Give Sleuth a try and see how we empower software teams to build faster by making engineering efficiency easy to improve and measurable — in a way that both managers and developers love.

Non-trivial: What you should do when developers say this

Non-trivial: What you should do when software developers say this. Spoiler alert: all they really mean is they need time to investigate what's going on. Here's part 4 of 4 of Sleuth's CTO and cofounder, Don Brown's take on decoding developer speak. Give Sleuth a try and see how we empower software teams to build faster by making engineering efficiency easy to improve and measurable — in a way that both managers and developers love.

Without automated workflows, your team is missing out on efficiency improvements

Every team has a workflow, even if it’s chaotic or lacks consistency. It’s a no-brainer, though, that in the fast-paced world of software development, a clear and well-defined path to guide your work is essential to move efficiently. Workflows provide just that — the structure and framework that developers need to streamline their processes, collaborate effectively, and optimize productivity.

The DevOps tool catapulting Gigpro from slow to swift

The DevOps tool catapulting Gigpro from slow to swift: Rick Cabrera, VP of Engineering, and Tucker LoCicero, Software Engineer and Team Lead at Gigpro tell us how Sleuth helped their team improve release frequency, gain visibility to bottlenecks, build trust between the business and engineering, and measure DORA metrics to prove their progress. Chapters: Give Sleuth a try and see how we empower software teams to build faster by making engineering efficiency easy to improve and measurable — in a way that both managers and developers love.

Infeasible? Yes, developers are technically correct

Infeasible? Yes, developers are technically correct when they say something is infeasible. To engineering managers, that translates to impossible, which is correct, too. This is where software developers and managers can agree to disagree. Here's part 3 of 4 of Sleuth's CTO and cofounder, Don Brown's take on decoding developer speak. Give Sleuth a try and see how we empower software teams to build faster by making engineering efficiency easy to improve and measurable — in a way that both managers and developers love.

Let your engineering team delegate toil to the robots with automated actions

If you want to make software engineering easy to improve, then automate actions in your development process. These simple yet high-impact “if this, then that” conditions pack a punch toward reducing toil and cognitive load. Your developers choose what’s important to improve and reap the benefits of an efficient and optimized development environment.
