I understand it's just a fun form of your values representing but... an empty team will be still awesome. Am I wrong? ๐Ÿ™‚

What about something like this?

Nice implementation of all of the surroundings! :-D makes sense from a coding point of view. But it seems a bit too complicated for conveying the message in a simple way inside the job posting. But I guess that wasn't your goal, so --> nice input ๐Ÿ‘.

I would like to implement a notification pipeline to notify the team lead whenever the test fails as this is a critical situation. It should not fail for long, every fix has to be done within seconds to remedy the situation.

Makes sense! Might put too much pressure on the team because they have to be awesome every single minute. Everybody has a bad unproductive morning from time to time, and that's ok. So let's implement that pipeline but run it only once per week maybe? :)

Valid point. Leads to a philosophical discussion. Is a non-existent team awesome? ๐Ÿค” Hard to say. I'd also be inclined to think that a non-existent team doesn't add any value to the world, and is therefore not awesome. Might be a reason to adapt the test.

Hi! fetchTeamMembers() should be a suspend function, and you are not in a coroutine scope ๐Ÿค” . So I think that test will not work ๐Ÿ™‚
