Webinar Description
Key Takeaways
- Explores how Field Nation built a software factory using the Gitar code verification agent
- Covers the automation of code review, fixes, approval and merge processes
- Addresses decisions around automated shipping versus human intervention points
- Features practitioners from Field Nation and Sonar discussing real implementation experience
About the Webinar
This fireside chat examines how Field Nation implemented a software factory workflow using Gitar, an agent from Sonar that automates code verification. The session features Chuck Haines, Sr. Principal Software Engineer at Field Nation, in conversation with Gautam Korlam, Principal Engineer at Sonar.
Software Factory Concepts
A software factory automates the journey from code change intent through to verified, merged code. Agents handle tasks traditionally performed manually: code review, applying fixes, approval workflows and merge operations. The approach requires teams to define boundaries between fully automated processes and checkpoints requiring human review.
Gitar functions as a code verification agent that diagnoses CI failures and applies autonomous fixes. It provides code review capabilities designed to verify that changes pass requirements before shipping.
Who Should Attend
This webinar is relevant for software engineers, engineering managers and DevOps practitioners interested in automating code review and verification workflows. Teams evaluating how to integrate agent-based tooling into their development pipelines will benefit from hearing how Field Nation approached implementation decisions and governance boundaries.
