Last month I was making a change to sx, our CLI. I updated a core flow, adding external catalogs as a source for sx add. Small change. Then came the testing. I knew I was messing with a core flow and wanted to be sure I hadn't broken anything. I spent about forty-five minutes setting up an isolated environment. Spinning up Docker. Fighting with tmux. Getting a clean install state I could run through the TUI a few times. Forty-five minutes of my afternoon that produced zero code. I complained in Slack.

Healthchecks.io ping endpoints accept HTTP HEAD, GET, and POST request methods. When using HTTP POST, clients can include an arbitrary payload in the request body. Healthchecks.io stores the first 100kB of the request body. If the request body is tiny, Healthchecks.io stores it in the PostgreSQL database. Otherwise, it stores it in S3-compatible object storage. We recently migrated from a managed to a self-hosted object storage.

Picture this: It's 2 a.m. Your phone is buzzing. A new feature just went out to your entire user base, and conversion rates are tanking. Your on-call engineer is digging through logs, your Slack channels are on fire, and you’re left wondering, Why didn't we just test this first? Every CTO has a version of this story. And most of them have quietly vowed never to repeat it.
