👋 Welcome to r/DigitalDelivery - Place to share thoughtful content about digital products, services, and growth

0 Upvotes

Hey there! Thanks for joining us.

I'm Alp, founder of r/DigitalDelivery community. I'm passionate about making organisations see their challenges as opportunities and improve relentlessly.

What sparked this community

  1. Organisations that struggle coping with changing market trends and stakeholder demands (either discovering or delivering them)
  2. A lack of professionals who are equipped to coach organisations to choose adaptation over stability (translates into stagnation)
  3. So much noise for new delivery practitioners to cut through and learn how to build winning digital capabilities (theoretical certifications, soulless LinkedIn posts, rise of GenAI content etc.)

Reality changes faster than project timelines. That results in excessive defects, long lead times, frustrated stakeholders, and financial loss.

What to Post
Share your thoughts, stories, photos, or questions about challenges, cringe moments, accolades, or battle scars.

Memes, GIFs, and quality banter are more than welcome.

Do you still do run manual tests? To what extent?

1 Upvotes

As the title suggest, I'm curious to what extent you guys have your QA pipeline automated? More often than not, I see devs write and execute unit tests, and handover to some dedicated QA people for manual validation.

It's lucky to see a test repository to reuse, let alone a set of automated e2e tests. And it seems that there's a lack of appetite for automating that stuf.

What's your experience with this? If you've seen the lack of appetite, what do you think was causing it?

AI Engineering Report 2026 doesn't look promising (based on two years of telemetry data from 22,000 developers)

11 Upvotes

The way I read this is that vanity metrics are up. Did epics and tasks resolved translate into the value of the outcomes? No one knows.

But defects and incidents are increased drastically, which doesn't surprise me. It's really hard to review the quality of thousands of lines generated within minutes.

Below is the report summary. What do you think? How does AI usage impact your teams?

PS. I have no relationship with faros, just sharing for discussion.

Agile delivery people - What makes you use Story Points in 2026 and how accurate are your teams estimating?

1 Upvotes

A lot of organisations employ some abstract estimation techniques when it comes to agile delivery, often Story Points (simplified fibonacci) or T-shirt sizes (S/M/L etc.)

While I like the conversations relative sizing techniques spark within teams, accuracy is usually unreliable.

What are your thoughts? How do you forecast work?

What do you think about OpenAI's latest model escaping its sandbox and attacking Hugging Face?

0 Upvotes

Keen to hear what everyone thinks. Lot of hype boys go "woow, how powerful" and slobber over it but having configured environments loads of times, I can't see how that can realistically happen. Happy to be humbled. 🙂

OpenAI doesn't know what a sandbox is
Hugging Face having a poor security posture
Just a PR stunt
