Do you think of software developer toil like Atlassian, LaunchDarkly, Okteto and Sleuth? Hear how leaders from these SaaS companies deal with toil on their teams. Toil for software developers includes repetitive tasks that could be automated, things that waste time and prevent you from investing in the future. These manual processes weigh down developers and the software development process, and can lead to burnout.

Software teams: You could be getting more from DORA metrics. The metrics are great for measuring software delivery, but they lack context for how to improve software development. Sleuth’s new Goals feature helps DevOps teams create and own goals that matter the most to them, enabling a bottom-up approach to software engineering improvement. Give Sleuth a try and see how we empower software teams to build faster by making engineering efficiency easy to improve and measurable — in a way that both managers and developers love.

Matt Upton, Director of Software Development at Rewind, joined Sleuth's Don Brown and Daniel de Juan to take our new Goals and Automations feature for a test drive. Hear reactions and input from Matt on how he sees the Goals feature being useful for his teams: ‍Key sections: Give Sleuth a try and see why it's a deploy-based Accelerate / DORA metrics tracker both managers and developers love.

How can you get your software engineering team to do more with less? Empower your developers to make changes. Reviewing work that's in progress, before it's deployed, is one of the best ways to do this. You'll identify risks before they negatively impact your metrics.

Data from DORA metrics isn't enough to help software engineering teams. Any decent DORA metrics tracker should go beyond just giving you data. It should also help you improve on that data by suggesting what to improve. Does your tool do this?

Does your software deployment process require that someone on your team manually checks different dashboards to verify that everything's okay? Do they actually do that when they deploy? Do you rely on customer complaints to notify you when something's wrong? There's a better way: Sleuth CTO and co-founder Don Brown shows you how to track several health measures automatically in Sleuth.

DORA metrics encourage software engineering teams to deploy in small batches. The DORA group found that when you deploy in small batches, you tend to have smaller change lead times, less failure rate, and shorter meantime to recovery.

Software development teams need ways to improve all the time. Empowering developers to improve on their own with DORA metrics data can go a long way toward doing more with less.
