Metrics And Analytics vs Manual Testing
Developers should learn and use metrics and analytics to ensure system reliability, enhance user experience, and support data-driven development processes, such as in DevOps for monitoring application performance or in product development for understanding user engagement meets developers should learn manual testing to gain a user-centric perspective on software quality, catch edge cases early in development, and perform exploratory testing where automation is impractical. Here's our take.
Metrics And Analytics

Metrics And Analytics
Nice PickDevelopers should learn and use metrics and analytics to ensure system reliability, enhance user experience, and support data-driven development processes, such as in DevOps for monitoring application performance or in product development for understanding user engagement
Pros
- +It is essential for identifying bottlenecks, measuring success against key performance indicators (KPIs), and making informed decisions based on empirical evidence rather than assumptions
- +Related to: monitoring, data-visualization
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Manual Testing
Developers should learn manual testing to gain a user-centric perspective on software quality, catch edge cases early in development, and perform exploratory testing where automation is impractical
Pros
- +It's particularly valuable for usability testing, ad-hoc bug hunting, and validating new features before investing in automation scripts, helping ensure software meets real-world expectations and reducing post-release issues
- +Related to: test-planning, bug-reporting
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
