Expectations
What are we expecting to happen?
By enabling this feature flag, Dora::DailyMetrics::RefreshWorker
starts collecting DORA daily metrics when a deployment job succeeded.
You can see the full implementation in this MR.
What might happen if this goes wrong?
In case there is an logical failure or edge case on the worker, the worker will fail to complete the process by raising an error.
What can we monitor to detect problems with this?
We can detect the problems by monitoring the exception spike on Sentry.
