Creating a dynamic ui in a chat window
Building a ui in a chat
The situation
They were given a task to create a dynamic ui and display it in a chat window, with the goal of showing valuable information. The task had to be completed within a short time frame. They had to decide how to approach the task and what to prioritize. The ui had to be functional and display the right information.
What they weighed
Act on the message and verify the result
Keep it as context when no action is called for
What they decided
Act on the message and verify the result
Why
They chose to act on the message because a similar issue had been fixed before, and they wanted to verify the result. The previous issue was a tour bug that was reproduced live and fixed at its two causes. A test and a live walker were used to keep it fixed. They applied the same approach to the new task.
The first step
Finish the full live walk of every tour and fix any step it fails
How they would know it worked
Scripts would report the number of failed steps
How it turned out
Not known yet. The result is added here when it comes in.
