English is not my first language, as I’m sure any reader of this blog knows. The reasons we want to make the stories small are plentiful; it’s easier to manage, implement, fix, deploy, and test… just about anything we do as a software development team. Write a test for some functionality that doesn’t exist yet.

This is how the developer story used to go: You do your coding work once, then you ship it to production—only to find out the code (or its dependencies) has security or other vulnerabilities. We can give developers the same superpowers that SREs have: observability-driven development. TDD goes platinum.
