Modern development environments, in which rapid continuous delivery is facilitated by automated continuous integration/continuous development (CI/CD) pipelines, require thorough and automated testing in development prior to integration. This article explains how test-driven development (TDD) and acceptance test-driven development (ATDD) methodologies reduce CI/CD lead times. Lack of test automation in development impacts CI/CD lead time for […]
EP 8: Testing Is Not a Monolith
With DevOps comes implementation of CI/CD, automation and testing. Is this sufficient to achieve “shift left testing”? Or does testing need to shift further left? Do we need new or additional tests for acceptance (ATDD) or behavioral testing (BDD)?
5 Steps for Successful Continuous Testing Implementation
Continuous integration (CI) calls for code to be always working. Continuous delivery (CD) and continuous deployment mean that we must be able to roll out a working configuration to production at any time. As DevOps becomes the norm, bugs in production are now a developer’s personal problem. Developers (and their managers) want to know immediately […]
