What makes a group of individual contributors a team? You can look at today’s product development teams as an ensemble of craftspeople from different disciplines. Code builders, design artists, storytellers, and an orchestrator. Similar to an orchestra, their output is based on the ability of each and every one of them to work together in […]
7 (More) Security Considerations for CI/CD
CI/CD orchestration has become increasingly popular in DevOps practices. It facilitates faster deployment of software and product delivery. Through the use of automation when building, testing and deploying applications, CI/CD bridges the gap between development, operation activities and teams. However, there are many security considerations to keep in mind with frequent deployment. From quality automation […]

8 Security Considerations for CI/CD
In the software development enterprise, CI/CD refers to the combined practices of continuous integration and either continuous delivery or continuous deployment. CI/CD enables organizations to bridge the gap between development, operation activities and teams by the use of automation when building, testing and deploying applications. How do you maintain quality and security with frequent deployments? […]
Bringing Continuous Testing Into the Software Delivery Pipeline
For any highly competitive industry that relies on a smooth and stable user experience, it is vital that their development teams accelerate release cycles, lower operating costs and ultimately reduce risks. Continuous testing is one way companies can achieve these objectives. As a subset of software testing, continuous testing (CT) is valuable because it uncovers […]
The State of Continuous Delivery in 2021
One of the hallmarks of DevOps is to improve the delivery of software. Therefore, mature DevOps systems employ continuous delivery (CD), the process of releasing bite-sized software changes on a regular basis. Amid high demand for digital innovation, streamlining this release pipeline is becoming more and more crucial for enabling overall software fluidity. So, what […]
How Low-Code Makes DevOps Stronger
While its roots can be traced back to rapid-application development (RAD), low-code application development started to gain serious momentum about three years ago. Initially, some in the DevOps community dismissed the trend, even as myriad approaches—from no-code to low-code for professional developers—started to enter the market. At the time, enterprises of all sizes had embraced […]
Continuous Testing Practices – Part 2
In my prior blog, Continuous Testing – The Quest for Quality at Speed, I described five tenets and some of the practices for continuous testing to help explain what continuous testing is. In my consulting work, I find it necessary to use 15 categories of practices to assess an organizations’ continuous testing capabilities. Given the […]
