What Role Does Telemetry Play in Hypothesis-Driven Development?

Telemetry enables the collection of specific data needed to validate a hypothesis. It supports empirical decision-making by showing whether a change actually leads to the desired outcome.

Metaphor

Telemetry in hypothesis-driven development is like installing smart sensors in a greenhouse. You don’t just guess if the plants are thriving; you track light, humidity, and soil moisture to confirm what’s helping them grow.
Without telemetry, you’re just hoping your hypothesis made an impact—data is what lets you know.
