Introduction

This document outlines the engineering standards to ensure high-quality code, efficient development processes, and a collaborative working environment.

Coding Standards

• Use programming language/tool specific standards for consistent code formatting and style.
• Follow best practices for error handling, variable naming, and function length.

Code Review Process

• All code changes must go through a code review process.
• Use code review tool for peer reviews and feedback.
• Address all comments and feedback before merging code into the main branch.

Testing Standards

• Write unit tests for all new code.
• Write integration tests for critical functionalities.
• Use testing framework/tool for automated testing.

Documentation

• Maintain API documentation for all public endpoints.
• Use documentation tool for generating and managing documentation.

Version Control

• Use Git for version control.
• Follow Git branching strategy for managing code changes.
• Use commit message guidelines for clear and informative commit messages.

Deployment Process

• Use deployment tool for automated deployments.
• Follow deployment checklist for ensuring smooth deployments.

Security Practices

• Regularly update dependencies to address security vulnerabilities.
• Use security tool for vulnerability scanning and code analysis.

Performance Optimization

• Profile and optimize code for performance.
• Use performance monitoring tool for tracking and analyzing performance metrics.

Continuous Integration and Deployment (CI/CD)

• Use CI/CD tool for automated build, test, and deployment processes.
• Implement continuous integration and continuous deployment pipelines for faster delivery.

Feedback and Improvement

• Encourage feedback from team members to improve engineering standards.
• Regularly review and update these standards to reflect evolving best practices.
