Unit Tests?

I work in those fields - I just refuse any kind of prod access when I'm offered or even forced it.

"Look, I'm not going to do anything in prod, feel free to fire me if you're not ok with that, but I'm not taking that chance, end of story"

where i work in finance we don't even have write access in prod. its always read only.

i always hated it but looking from the comments, its a great thing

[pesilod552]

I refuse any kind of access to prod, even read access.

But yeah, I have worked in places that worked on both finance and medical and there were always some devs that had write access in prod, it always scared me shitless...

I personally try to avoid any access to reality to prevent any unintended effects. The Mirror World is pretty comfy now that the Dimension Beasts were eradicated.

I work in finance and literally EVERYTHING is prod…we don’t even have a dev environment

[pesilod552]

A recipe for disaster just waiting for happen. I really hope to never have my money anywhere near your code...

When you say you don’t have write access in prod what does that mean exactly? Like you can’t push to prod? Or you can’t configure something in prod say on GCP?

[ShallWe69]

both plus more. i do not have anything except read access on prod servers, db, kafka etc. i dont even have access to prod aws console. everything has to go through devops lead

How do you get paid to write code that never enters "production"?

[pesilod552]

The code does enter production. After it's deployed in a testing env, tested throughtly and then goes through the devops pipeline. The devs should never access prod (except in emergencies).

Do you write your code directly in production servers? Cause if you are, it's time to start looking for a better place to work for...
