SWE - Week 4

 CST 438 - Software Engineering Week 4

What is the most interesting thing you have learned in your reading of "Software Engineering at Google"?

There are a few things that have caught my attention from this book. First, it is how they explain that in each Pull Request the code reviewers are expecting to also see the unit test from the created class. And also, how a PR should not exceed 200 lines of code "If the code is over 200 lines of code, it is best to break the code review into multiple reviews so that a single code review deals with less than 200 lines of code". This makes sense because at work, I am currently working on testing multiple classes in a microservice using the Mockito Extension, and I had to split my commit into multiple ones, so the code reviewers don't need a long time reviewing one PR containing 20+ files. This week has been particularly interesting since we started collaborating on GitHub with my team, I am excited to see how the app comes along.
