Cross-Domain Coverage

CI/CD (10 MRs)

The mutation testing sprint required iterative debugging of CI configuration across both Python (mutmut) and TypeScript (Stryker). Each pipeline run revealed a new issue: pnpm plugin discovery, test file exclusions, disk exhaustion, artifact paths. Each fix was its own MR, merged independently with a passing pipeline.

Testing Infrastructure (4 MRs)

Built the integration test infrastructure from scratch: a real_db session fixture connecting to local Supabase, an autouse _truncate_tables fixture that clears all app tables via direct psycopg connection, and seed helpers for all domains. Covered 9 domain test files (clients, invoices, payments, sessions, staff, email, settings, risk scoring, reminders).

Application Features (3 MRs)

Three features shipped alongside the infrastructure work: auto-generated invoice numbers with client code prefix and sequential numbering, authentication on previously unprotected GET endpoints, and Sentry instrumentation for Celery background tasks.

Documentation (1 MR)

Updated CLAUDE.md with staging Supabase connection details, integration test conventions, mutation testing configuration rationale, and SonarQube coverage merging. This is a quality investment: every future AI-assisted session starts with the correct context.


Quality Indicators

Iterative Problem-Solving

The mutation testing sprint is the clearest quality signal. Rather than batching changes into one large MR, each fix was isolated, tested against the real CI pipeline, and merged independently. The 10 CI MRs represent 10 iterations of “run pipeline, read failure, fix, verify, merge.” This iterative approach is slower per-MR but catches cascading issues early.

April 5: 13 MRs in One Day

April 5 was the peak of the mutation testing sprint. 13 MRs were authored and merged in a single day:

  • 6 CI fixes (Stryker plugin, pnpm exec, disk cleanup, integration test coverage, flaky test timeout, mutation testing inclusion)
  • 3 application features (invoice number, client auth, Sentry Celery)
  • 2 testing MRs (strengthen integration tests, mutation-killing unit tests)
  • 2 additional CI refinements

Each MR had a passing pipeline before merge. No shortcuts, no --no-verify.

Review Depth

The 3 reviews this week totaled 44 review points with 7 P0 (blocker) issues. The most critical catch was the broken cross-table join in the risk scoring engine (MR !166), which would have returned all clients’ payments instead of the target client’s payments. This would have made every risk score in the system wrong.

Consistent Commit Discipline

All 50+ commits followed conventional commit format with accurate scope tags: fix(ci): for CI fixes, chore(ci): for non-breaking improvements, feat(api): for new features, test(api): for test additions. No vague messages.


Discipline

  • On-time attendance at class and sprint meetings
  • Pipeline green before every merge (no --no-verify or force merges)
  • Conventional commits throughout, with accurate type and scope tags
  • Linear ticket codes in branch names for traceability
