Session
Building an app is not easy—especially when we have to safeguard personal data, or perform important tasks for our users. We often see news headlines of the latest bug in this app or that website. While we can't always avoid making mistakes, we can take precautions to set ourselves up for success.
This talk will cover the steps my team has taken to test our apps, automate our processes and most importantly of all: ensure that everyone feels comfortable raising their concerns. This has allowed us to release regular, bug-free updates to grow apps to #1 on the UK App Store and Google Play. You'll walk away with practical steps to ensure your next commit doesn't become tomorrow's headline.
