DeveloperWeek 2023

Joanna Schloss, Sr. VP of Product Marketing and Open Source, SmartBear

Description
How do you make sure what you are building will meet your goals and objectives, while also taking advantage of the skills members of your team want to utilize? How do you manage your different deployment models correctly and with priority? Teams need visibility into analytics and key results but also must know how they relate to product quality and team confidence. Developers need the greatest amount of visibility into their own work, into their team's work, and into the organization's work to be successful.
Visibility works both ways with developer visibility falling on the shoulders of the teams themselves. Track your initiatives and tasks — how many are buggy? How many are working? And share with others. From knowing company objectives and goals to the analytics and what they mean, it is tough for success to come to fruition without teams having visibility and sharing with others.

Takeaways
1. Developer visibility is what you need
2. AI/ML can help you with that
3. Collaborative OKRs can be your friend
