The Townwork iOS app over the past few years
summary
Engineers describe challenges maintaining the large TownWork iOS app, covering constraints of developing for a large-scale service. They detail concrete efforts: a debug mode to speed manual testing, a UI test tool called Rentgen for automated UI testing, crash-rate monitoring and fixes, migrating the codebase to 100% Swift to improve quality and reduce costs, and improvements to compile times to cut development cost.
