For these teams already using pull requests (or merge requests as they are sometimes known), this advice seems trivial. For the teams that do not use them- it may not be so simple. Let me explain why you need and how to get started.
I love working as a part of a great software development team. Thanks to my job, I also have a chance to lead such teams. In this series of blog posts titled Helping your team I would like to explore different ideas and techniques to make sure that the team you are part of is performing at its best!
Before going into specific topic, it is important to realize that you do not have to be a team lead or a senior member of the team to incite change! Introducing good ideas and championing best practices can be done by anyone. As a lead, this is your responsibility.
On that note- what am I planning to share here? The things that I love talking and learning about. Technology, working with people, maybe a little bit of chess (that’s where the e4 comes from!) for a change. I will share my honest opinion and experience- hoping that it may benefit others who are facing similar situations, or inspire to do something. I am not a professional writer, so this is going to be a bit of a learning curve for me- please bear with me as I figure this whole blogging thing out and make many mistakes along the way!
