Overview

Monday.com faced the challenge of maintaining high-quality code while accelerating development speed. As their digital services expanded, ensuring bug-free releases became increasingly crucial. To solve these challenges, they integrated Qodo into their development process, transforming the way their teams approached code generation, testing, and code review.

Key Challenges

1. Balancing Speed with Quality: Development teams often prioritized fast delivery, which led to bugs and reduced overall code quality.
2. Time-Consuming Tests: Writing and executing comprehensive tests became a bottleneck in the development lifecycle.
3. Inefficient Development Processes: Slow and manual code reviews hindered productivity and delayed product releases.

The Solution: Qodo

By incorporating Qodo into their workflow, Monday.com streamlined several core development activities. Qodo’s features for automated test creation and context-aware code generation within the Integrated Development Environment (IDE) offered a seamless integration for developers. This allowed them to focus on developing features while ensuring quality and performance.

How Qodo Helped

Qodo Gen

– Enhanced Test Coverage: One of the significant advantages of Qodo was the ability to quickly generate thorough and comprehensive tests. This dramatically increased test coverage without requiring manual effort from the developers.

– Reduced Bugs: With automated unit tests and real-time bug detection, the company saw a marked reduction in bugs reaching production, improving overall stability.

– Improved Efficiency: The tool automated the repetitive task of test creation, freeing up developers to focus on coding. As a result, they were able to develop faster without sacrificing quality.

– Confidence in Code: With automated tests and error detection, developers had greater confidence that their code met the company’s high standards.

Qodo Merge

– Better Code Reviews: The company also leveraged Qodo to enhance their code review process. The tool’s ability to suggest corrections and explain code meant that even junior developers could participate in reviews with the confidence of a senior developer backing them up.

The Results

– Productivity Gains: The automation of tedious tasks like test creation and code review allowed the teams to work faster and more efficiently.

– Fewer Production Bugs: By improving test coverage and automating testing, the company saw a significant decrease in the number of bugs reaching production.

– Stronger Code Quality: Developers gained confidence in the reliability and quality of their code thanks to the constant guidance provided by Qodo.

As the Senior Director of Engineering shared, “Qodo is like a senior developer that can be with a junior dev 24×7. It suggests, corrects, and explains code, keeping to our coding standards. By the time code is ready for production, developers have confidence that their code is high quality.”
