It reduces the cost of testing and supports keeping long-term, high-development velocities. Test automation is not a project or a one-off—it is part of the development lifecycle and should be seen as its own system that needs to evolve over time as the requirements and system under test change and mature.

What I’m really doing is changing the engineering culture at OpenSesame. Culture doesn’t change easily. I’m hoping this will help direct people to new behaviors, which will in turn start to change the engineering culture. Bigger than a breadbox, anyway. It tends to snap back. This makes room for a lot more skills.

PDF) Culture Changes The purpose of the new career ladder is to help change the engineering culture at OpenSesame. This lighter-weight approach allows us to have a lot more skills, and we were hoping it would remove the bias the previous system had toward self-promotion and longevity. I tend to agree. It’s still a burden.

Modern software systems are complex, with services distributed across data centers, in many zones, all around the world. Now we rely on others to manage massive data centers where we borrow small slices of virtual space on shared hardware, traveling over shared networks, all in a system we call the cloud.

We use Extreme Programming as our model of how to develop software. They also love test-driven development, pairing, continuous integration, and evolutionary design. They tend to be passionate, senior developers. The old career ladder emphasized understanding advanced technologies and building complex systems.
