FIXME: Unskip this test
Surface and prioritize TODOs at the right time.
Developers often tend to write TODOs that can’t be resolved immediately due to external factors (such as a feature needing to be merged first or a dependency needing to be upgraded). Periodically checking when a TODO becomes resolvable is cumbersome and will ultimately be forgotten.
Catana use a fine tuned AI model to understand a TODO and surface it in your issue tracker when it becomes actionable.
FIXME: Unskip by next week!
Catana saves developers time, works hand-in-hand with your issue tracker to turn TODOs into concrete, resolvable tickets, and prevents the accumulation of technical debt.
