This month we're fortunate to be hosted by Capital One to hear 3 great iOS talks, and to meet with fellow iOS developers. Don't hesitate to sign up as places go quickly once we open RSVPs!
Doors open at 18:30, with talks from 19:00. Food and drinks will be available. After the event, you’re welcome to join us at a nearby pub if you like. We’ll have three talks, with one just being confirmed:
Hidden engineering costs and complexities of A/B testing
Anastasia Petrova
In this talk, we’ll critically examine the often-overlooked engineering challenges and hidden costs of A/B testing. We’ll explore how A/B testing increases code complexity, introduces risks of data corruption, expands the testing matrix, and challenges debugging. We’ll shed light on the real impacts on developer experience and user satisfaction. I’ll provide real-life insights gained from working on products such as Depop and Monzo that might reshape your perception of A/B testing and convince you that it’s a tool that needs to be wielded responsibly and requires high engineering discipline.
Trainline's path to production with Gen AI
Adam Fallon
In this talk, I'll explain how we set up an innovation lab at Trainline, the make up of the team, and how we shipped a feature in our iOS app using Generative AI in just 6 weeks, from team creation through to making and shipping a new feature.
