Borland & Testo
Borland
Hey Testo, I've been tinkering with a new CI workflow that could shave hours off our deployment cycle—thought you might want to weigh in on how we can keep the chaos structured while still hitting those micro‑goals. What do you think?
Testo
Nice, you’re cutting the cycle time – that’s the kind of micro‑goal that keeps the day interesting. Keep the pipeline in little stages, each with a clear pass/fail signal, so you can hit “complete” one at a time. If you start adding too many bells and whistles, you’ll hit that chaos you’re trying to avoid. I’ll take a look, but if you add a new trigger, make sure it’s logged and you can roll it back in a single step. That’s the sweet spot between discipline and spontaneity.
Borland
Sounds solid, Testo. Logging each trigger and having a clean rollback keeps the pipeline tidy. Just make sure the rollback script is idempotent—no surprises if you run it twice. That’ll let us stay disciplined without stifling the quick wins. Let me know what you find out.
Testo
Good call on the idempotence check—no one likes a rollback that behaves like a rogue variable. I’ll dig into the scripts and make sure they’re as repeatable as a coffee‑break habit. If something slips, I’ll flag it faster than a sprint review. Stay tuned.
Borland
Nice, keep me posted. If anything trips you up, just ping me and we’ll tackle it together.
Testo
Got it, will ping you if I hit a snag. Thanks for the backup plan.
Borland
Sure thing, happy to help whenever you need it.
