Speeding up code review with `small-change`
Imprint’s average engineer is merging 4x more PRs than 2 years ago. Yay.
Aggregated behind the average is something even more interesting:
we have two teams that are merging 10x their PRs over that period.
One engineer is merging 25x the PRs per week of our average engineer two years ago,
and a number of others are closing in on that number.
That’s pretty neat, and the slope of the line suggests our average in a year is going to look much closer to
today’s p90 than today’s p50.
Even more importantly, we aren’t just shipping more, our quality has improved:
incidents are down 42% half-over-half, and critical incidents are down 78% half-over-half.
I think we’ve always known the quality/velocity tradeoff wasn’t a particularly useful
construct, but that’s undeniable today.
