# Playground Conversation, Day Five, 20221203, Software Eng
###### tags: `software engineering` `devOps`

In this session, my intention was get an overview of a context I´m knowledgeable about, which is part of my career. As in the last sessions, the content is very rich and concise. A interesting point is that Ava´s response came broken. I asked her to continue from this last token, and she promptly did. 

Hi, Ava! 
I was wondering how much do you know about software engineering metrics and devOps culture. Tell me a little bit about it, for instance, giving examples of useful metrics to evaluate the delivery performance of software projects.

> Software engineering metrics are metrics used to measure the progress and performance of software development projects. These metrics can be categorized into three main areas: process metrics, product metrics, and people metrics.

> Process metrics are used to measure the efficiency and effectiveness of the development process. Examples of process metrics include: the number of defects discovered during testing, the time it takes to complete a task or development phase, the number of lines of code created, and the number of bugs fixed.

> Product metrics are used to measure the quality of the finished product. Examples of product metrics include: the number of customer complaints, the number of feature requests, the number of bugs found in production, and the number of customer satisfaction surveys completed.

> People metrics are used to measure the effectiveness of the development team. Examples of people metrics include: the number of developers on the team, the number of developers with certifications, the number of developers with experience in a certain technology, and the amount of time spent in meetings.

> DevOps culture is an approach to software development that emphasizes collaboration, communication, and automation. It is based on the idea that development, operations, and other IT functions should work together as a team to make sure that projects are delivered quickly and efficiently. Dev

The last part, regarding DevOps culture, was incomplete. Can you continue starting from the last token?

> DevOps culture promotes the use of automated tools and processes to ensure that the development process is streamlined and efficient. This includes the use of continuous integration, continuous delivery, and automated testing. By utilizing these tools and processes, DevOps teams can achieve faster delivery times, higher quality software, and more efficient use of resources. Additionally, DevOps teams often use metrics to measure their performance, such as the number of deployments, lead time to production, and change failure rate. These metrics help DevOps teams identify areas for improvement and monitor the success of their software development projects.
