Where Testers and QA Fit in the Story of DevOps
Continuous delivery. CI. GitHub. Scrum. CD. Jenkins. Continuous testing. Continuous integration. These are just some terms that are supposed to describe the word soup that is DevOps. Chances are that you have heard some or all of these words being passed around at your daily stand ups or company meetings.
However, where does QA and testing fit into the story of DevOps? Some would say that developers and operations teams are all you need for a successful DevOps pipeline, while others show that Dev, Test and Ops need to be included to ensure quality at every step in your pipeline.
In this webinar, Ryan Yackel, QASymphony's Director of Product Marketing, and Sunil Sehgal, Managing Partner at TechArcis, will share their experiences as they navigate you through the DevTestOps waters. In this webinar you will learn:
Overview of the State of DevOps
Common misconceptions of DevOps and QA
How testers must adapt to the DevOps process
The tools testers need for continuous testing

Implementing QA testing seems straightforward. However, implementing a comprehensive QA strategy can be a complex process. To ensure that your product, app, or website is bug free when it hits production, here are 7 QA tests you should be running.
One of the cornerstones in Agile development is fast feedback. For engineering, "fast" means "instantly" or "in 5 minutes", not "tomorrow" or "this week". Your engineering practices should ensure that you can answer yes to most of the following questions:
- Do we get all test results in less than 5 minutes after a commit?
- Is our code coverage more than 75% for both front-end and back-end?
- Can we start exploratory testing in less than 15 minutes after a commit?
- Do all our tests pass more than 90% of our commits?
This talk will give you practical advice on how to get to "yes, we get fast feedback".
Security Implications for a DevOps TransformationDevOps.com
If your organization is undergoing a DevOps transformation, you’re probably thinking about where security fits in. All too often, we tack on security testing at the end of the delivery process, which means significant problems go undetected until development is complete. As we adopt DevOps principles and practices, we enable a natural solution to this problem: ensure that security experts are involved throughout the delivery process.
In this webinar, DevOps.com and Puppet defined a reference implementation of DevOps from the ground up, by illustrating how the software delivery process evolves at a hypothetical startup. Once we've laid a technical foundation for DevOps, we discussed the implications for security. We also discussed:
Benefits for and challenges to security during a DevOps transformation
How to craft a DevOps-ready security practice
Refinements of a standard DevOps workflow to address security needs

DevQA - From Quality Control to Quality Assistance Jana Gierloff
Everyone is talking about DevOps but what about DevQA?
In addition to analytical and logical thinking testers must know notions of programming and also
coding, same as for writing simple unit test scripts. They must know about concepts of databases,
web services, build systems and continuous integration. A DevQA stimulates the testing area to
expand their knowledge leading out of the comfort zone where once almost manual activities were
repeated throughout the development of a system. They have an obligation to reinvent their activities
and assisting the team in others, being more integrated and participatory.
This is the story how we went from Quality Control to Quality Assistance. How we managed required
organisational changes and setting up an automation strategy which lead the way from Quality
Control to Quality Assurance. Later on we realised this is not enough as traditional testers help to
ship safely by doing the testing, but this can have the side-effect of slowing the team down. Our
tester:developer ratio was always low we had to find a way to empower and educate developers
to test their features according to quality standards. We evolved this over time also to enforce the
“whole team” mentality when it comes to quality. As developers learn to build quality into their
features from the start, rework is reduced, and the team can achieve both quick and safe delivery. A
DevQA becomes the facilitator for this, instead of the individual performing the tests. This transition is
what we called “quality assistance”.

Skills Week / Chris Ambler / Quality Not Bugspixellab
Chris Ambler, head of European QA for Electronic Arts, spoke on the history and nature of QA testing, stressing that it is about quality, not just bugtracking.
The Google Test Automation Conference (GTAC) is an annual test automation conference hosted by Google. 2016 is 10th GTAC. I'll share the most impressive parts of experience sharing & tool I heard in GTAC 2016 in this slide.
by Dave Longman, Headforwards.
Modern software release cycles are getting shorter and shorter. Modern development languages and frameworks enable developers to produce new features faster than ever. With the trend of shorter sprints and a general move towards continuous delivery it is becoming more and more difficult to get everything ready to release without testing becoming a bottleneck.
Existing testing processes cannot keep up with the rapid release pace demanded by more and more companies. So what can we do about this? One approach is to turn your development team into testers, get them to think more like a tester thereby reducing the number of issues that get past the developers IDE. But does this work and how do you go about doing it?
In this session I will explain what we have done to help our developers become testers. I'll talk about the challenges we faced as well as the benefits that it brought for our projects. We'll also look at what impact this had on the developers and more crucially on the testers.

First Steps with Globus Compute Multi-User EndpointsGlobus
In this presentation we will share our experiences around getting started with the Globus Compute multi-user endpoint. Working with the Pharmacology group at the University of Auckland, we have previously written an application using Globus Compute that can offload computationally expensive steps in the researcher's workflows, which they wish to manage from their familiar Windows environments, onto the NeSI (New Zealand eScience Infrastructure) cluster. Some of the challenges we have encountered were that each researcher had to set up and manage their own single-user globus compute endpoint and that the workloads had varying resource requirements (CPUs, memory and wall time) between different runs. We hope that the multi-user endpoint will help to address these challenges and share an update on our progress here.

Climate Science Flows: Enabling Petabyte-Scale Climate Analysis with the Eart...Globus
The Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) is a global network of data servers that archives and distributes the planet’s largest collection of Earth system model output for thousands of climate and environmental scientists worldwide. Many of these petabyte-scale data archives are located in proximity to large high-performance computing (HPC) or cloud computing resources, but the primary workflow for data users consists of transferring data, and applying computations on a different system. As a part of the ESGF 2.0 US project (funded by the United States Department of Energy Office of Science), we developed pre-defined data workflows, which can be run on-demand, capable of applying many data reduction and data analysis to the large ESGF data archives, transferring only the resultant analysis (ex. visualizations, smaller data files). In this talk, we will showcase a few of these workflows, highlighting how Globus Flows can be used for petabyte-scale climate analysis.
Listen to the keynote address and hear about the latest developments from Rachana Ananthakrishnan and Ian Foster who review the updates to the Globus Platform and Service, and the relevance of Globus to the scientific community as an automation platform to accelerate scientific discovery.
