Do you dedicate full weeks to testing existing features before building new ones? Here is why I do.
Day 18 of building Verso (projectoye.com) — a workspace OS replacing your fragmented tool stack with one AI-native environment.
This whole week is what I call a consolidation week. No new features. Just going through every piece of what already exists — clicking every button, testing every flow, finding what is broken and fixing it before moving on.
Most builders skip this. The pull to keep shipping new things is real. But I have seen too many products where 10 features exist and 6 of them half-work.
The rule I set for myself: nothing new ships until what is already built works properly end to end.
It is not exciting to post about. It is the difference between a product that feels polished and one that does not.
Do you dedicate time to this kind of consolidation work, or do you test as you go? Curious how other builders handle it.
