“DevOps” seems to be missing the word “Test”, though test is part of “Dev”. DevOps is all about supporting frequent delivery of small, valuable changes to production in a way that is routine and undramatic. DevOps is a hot buzzword, but many teams struggle with how testing fits in, keeps up, and contributes to the DevOps culture. How do we squeeze every possible testing activity into our deployment pipeline? In this talk, Lisa will demystify testing in DevOps by explaining basic terminology and concepts. She will introduce tools and frameworks that help teams learn how to do the testing activities that give them confidence for continuous delivery and deployment.

Key Takeaways:

Terminology and concepts to help teams practicing DevOps talk about testing and help testers talk about pipelines and operability
Using frameworks like the Test Suite Canvas to determine the right test automation for your deployment pipeline
Ways to shorten the feedback loops from pipelines and cycle time for delivering stories to production
