Stabilizing Continuous Testing in DevOps

Eran Kinsbruner

Summary:

Organizations have matured their software development practices over the past few years. Despite advancements and innovations, testing remains one of the biggest challenges in DevOps. To increase test automation coverage and scale agile, we need to match software testing deliveries with the right testing tool, the right skill set, and the right testing persona. This could be a developer, a software development engineer in test (SDET), or a test engineer. Eran Kinsbruner will address the most painful challenges developers and testers face and offer an agile testing approach that examines the tool chain landscape for mobile and web apps. He will also explain where each persona and skill set best fits into the DevOps pipeline. Learn how SDETs, business testers, and developers can be champions in agile testing by understanding the different tools and how they fit each persona throughout the DevOps pipeline. You'll go back to work with a formula for successful web and mobile app testing.
