October 2025: Stabilized the DataDog Terraform provider by implementing a validation to prevent empty locations for API and Browser Synthetics tests, preventing misconfigurations in Terraform plans. This involved updating resourceDatadogSyntheticsTestCustomizeDiff, adding acceptance tests (TestAccDatadogSyntheticsAPITest_EmptyLocations and TestAccDatadogSyntheticsBrowserTest_EmptyLocations), and linking the work to SYNTH-21730 (commit ca7d5537cfe7e78bf195fee3ef0640e27b59844d). The changes improve deployment reliability, reduce runtime errors, and enhance CI/CD confidence for users provisioning synthetic tests. Technologies demonstrated include Terraform provider development in Go, acceptance testing, and test-driven validation.
