Why: To use the latest and greatest and because this is the version
the CircleCI container we are using has pre-installed

Controllers

  • When adding a new controller that requires the user to be fully
    authenticated, make sure to add before_action :confirm_two_factor_authenticated
    as the first callback.

Database

  • Unsafe migrations are implemented over several PRs and over several
    deploys to avoid production errors. The strong_migrations gem
    will warn you about unsafe migrations and has great step-by-step instructions
    for various scenarios.

  • Indexes were added if necessary. This article provides a good overview
    of indexes in Rails.

  • Verified that the changes don't affect other apps (such as the dashboard)

  • When relevant, a rake task is created to populate the necessary DB columns
    in the various environments right before deploying, taking into account the users
    who might not have interacted with this column yet (such as users who have not
    set a password yet)

  • Migrations against existing tables have been tested against a copy of the
    production database. See LG-228 Make migrations safer and more resilient #2127 for an example when a migration caused deployment
    issues. In that case, all the migration did was add a new column and an index to
    the Users table, which might seem innocuous.

Encryption

  • The changes are compatible with data that was encrypted with the old code.

Routes

  • GET requests are not vulnerable to CSRF attacks (i.e. they don't change
    state or result in destructive behavior).

Session

  • When adding user data to the session, use the user_session helper
    instead of the session helper so the data does not persist beyond the user's
    session.

Testing

  • Tests added for this feature/bug
  • Prefer feature/integration specs over controller specs
  • When adding code that reads data, write tests for nil values, empty strings,
    and invalid inputs.
