Hanna Dernbrant
Jayway
What’s it like moving from Waterfall to DevOps?
This live session will explore what it’s like moving from a waterfall mindset to working with DevOps. How does this affect how you work? How does it affect your testing team? What does it mean for you?
In this session, Hanna will explore some of her experiences in making the jump to DevOps and how she has adopted to the change. She also explores the differences and similarities between the two worlds going from working in a MedTech project in Waterfall to a retail project in DevOps. The talk will start with the transition from Waterfall to DevOps, from there it will get into the experience Hanna has had working with DevOps in her current project, both with a testing focus but also a bit regarding the operational parts. There will be a section regarding how her team scaled in an agile setting and then finishing off with tips and tricks for working in DevOps.
Over the past 8 years in testing, Hanna has worked in multiple fields such as MedTech and Telecom across different stages of testing. She spoke at EuroSTAR 2020 and attendees at her Deep Dive talk will receive a bonus of access to her EuroSTAR 2020 talk on-demand.
