March 2025 (pass-culture-main) focused on stabilizing deposits lifecycle, correcting eligibility and age-transition handling, and enhancing developer tooling. Key fixes ensure correct role assignment after activation and proper preservation of underage deposits during age transitions, while the re-crediting flow now moves cancellable bookings to new deposits when a deposit expires or is recreated. A tooling enhancement adds dynamic, branch-reflective links to script documentation headers, improving repository navigation and maintainability. Overall, these changes reduce edge-case regressions, improve financial accounting accuracy, and streamline developer workflows.

Month: 2024-11 Overview: - This month delivered API-focused improvements, improved data completeness for offers, strengthened test hygiene, and enhanced observability in the native app to optimize telemetry volume. The changes directly support business value by returning richer stock and offer data, reducing manual follow-ups, and ensuring reliable monitoring across environments. Key features delivered: - Stock query enhancement: include digital stocks from virtual venues in department-filtered stock queries; adds a test to verify digital stocks are included when the venue's department matches the filter. (Repo: pass-culture/pass-culture-main; Commit: 5925c28b53145be44b656ae72206cbb41101fd63) - Offer route enhancement: include offer address details in response; eager loading of address data and serialization updates to include OfferAddressResponse for location-specific information. (Repo: pass-culture/pass-culture-main; Commit: 27f9a7c465d88ca2a5b5da7872c0c5d93788fbe7) Major bugs fixed: - Test cleanup: remove obsolete test function test_email_at_booking_date_with_mail_history that was made redundant by a previous change; keeps the test suite clean and relevant. (Repo: pass-culture/pass-culture-main; Commit: fadb4baf7128809d774edaf9bc871cf52e4144fb) Observability and quality improvements: - Observability: Sentry sampling rate configuration across environments; introduce SENTRY_SAMPLE_RATE and set environment-specific rates to control telemetry volume (0.25 in integration/production; 1.0 in staging/testing). (Repo: pass-culture/pass-culture-app-native; Commit: 838da562bb720e367d70c94f244ff90673171d76) Overall impact and accomplishments: - Enhanced data accuracy and API completeness (stock and offer data) reduce downstream rework and improve user experience. - Cleaner test suites reduce maintenance time and false positives, accelerating release cycles. - Better telemetry management enables safer production monitoring and faster incident response, aligned with risk management goals. Technologies and skills demonstrated: - API data joining and query enhancement, test-driven development, and data serialization improvements in pass-culture-main. - Eager loading and API response serialization for offers in the same repo. - Telemetry configuration and environment-specific observability in pass-culture-app-native.
