There aren't a lot of metrics out there that actually work. At least toward building up a great software engineering practice.
There is one that does carry a bit of signal with regard to health, and that's TBD. Your maturity with TBD implies maturity with a number of the core practices involved in building software well. Further, it implies that you are actually pretty good at those things (as a team).
As long as you avoid the pitfall of "cowboy coding" - there aren't a lot of dangers in measuring and even holding yourself accountable to your TBD maturity.
Even if it turns out that your maturity is low - probing even a little at that will yield massive concrete, actionable improvement opportunities.
So join us this month as we dive into this unique and powerful idea.
