โ€œIโ€™m writing unit tests because I have to. They just confirm that my code works, which I already know. They are tedious to write, and often stop working when I change the implementation of the system. Maintaining unit tests is often difficult and takes a lot of time out of my day.โ€

Does this sound familiar?

Testing Done Right - speed vs quality โ€” SoftwareCaptains โ€” Lead your tech team through your growth

"We moeten meer testen." "Maar we shippen nu al te traag." Ik hoor dit gesprek in bijna elk tech team. De developers willen meer tests schrijven. De business wil sneller features zien. En de CTO zit ertussenin, met het gevoel dat elke keuze de verkeerde is. Maar het echte dilem

The biggest April Fool's joke? Using AI to generate more output quicker instead of reshaping the flow of value in teams and systems.

Multi-billion dollar joke...

CircleCI's analysis of 28 million CI workflows confirms the same picture the DORA data shows. While feature branch activity's up significantly, the median impact on *main* (i.e. release) branch activity's net-negative 7%.

Only the top 5% of teams saw significant gains. The top 10% flatlined at 1%.

For the average team, AI slows them down overall.

Told ya!

What 28 million workflows reveal about AI codingโ€™s biggest risk

In our last issue, we shared a preview of data from our upcoming 2026 State of Software Delivery showing that the promised AI productivity boom isnโ€™t all hype. Throughput across the CircleCI platform increased 59% year-over-year, by far the largest productivity jump we've ever recorded and a clear i
