The document discusses continuous delivery practices including defining goals and features through examples and stories, automating acceptance criteria tests, and implementing application code to pass those tests. It emphasizes that quality must be built into the process through techniques like test automation to enable continuous delivery of value to the business. Automating acceptance criteria keeps projects on track, provides better visibility, allows faster release cycles, and reduces risk and costs.

Jenkins - From Continuous Integration to Continuous DeliveryVirendra Bhalothia
Continuous Delivery is a process that merges Continuous Integration with automated deployment, test, and release; creating a Continuous Delivery solution. Continuous Delivery doesn't mean every change is deployed to production ASAP. It means every change is proven to be deployable at any time.
We would see how we can enable CD with Jenkins.

[Webinar] Test First, Fail Fast - Simplifying the Tester's Transition to DevOpsKMS Technology
DevOps is a spectacular mish-mash of development and operations processes and practices that has been growing increasingly popular in recent years. With the upward trending rate in adoption comes the need for organizations to fully understand the key practices as well as thoroughly integrating team members, especially testers, throughout the delivery pipeline. Getting started with DevOps practices can be a little tricky when choosing the right tools, people, and processes. In this webinar, we’ll focus on helping you make the switch without diminishing the team’s delivered product quality, so that the transition meets the enterprise objectives of speed and reliability.
Tune in to learn:
The biggest concern when moving to DevOps - and how to handle it
Why you need ‘Coding Testers’
The best tools for the job
The process of failing fast, and its significance to testers
Measuring the transition - recommended metrics
The value of DevOps long-term - efficiency, repeatability & reliability
Don’t worry about failing - it’s a part of the process!

Written specs are easy to read but hard to write. Even with an understanding of the principles and tips for writing good Gherkin, it can be very hard to keep scenarios clean, informative and readable.
These slides are from a workshop given by John Ferguson Smart and Tom Roden, where they take a practical look at some real-world Gherkin scenarios, investigate what makes them smell and practise how to improve them. Discover some powerful refactoring patterns to help make your own specs a joy to read.
It was the time of Da Vinci and Michelangelo. It was also the time of Machiavelli and the Medici. Artists working on timeless masterpieces crossed paths with mercenary captains, contracted to do a very specific job.
In this keynote talk, John Smart will address important questions with deep implications for any IT team, or any organisation trying to make a difference, or simply to get the most value out of their IT projects.
Who is your real customer? Is there a cost to quality? Are you building an artwork that will last, or simply fulfilling a contract?
An inspiring and entertaining talk that will take attendees on journey from the Italian Renaissance to Silicon Valley and the City of London, and see what lessons can be learned about cultures, attitudes and work ethics today.
Discover how you can multiply your team’s productivity and innovation by engaging the creativity of your whole team from the outset. Drawing from his long experience helping teams deliver better software faster and more effectively, John will discuss the latest practical techniques leveraged from Behaviour Driven Development, Lean Enterprise, DevOps, and Test Automation, combined with research in Psychology and Team Performance, to show you how to get the best out of your teams.
Learn about the new roles of business analysts, developers and testers in the future of software development, where testers can play a vital role in not only detecting defects but preventing them. Discover how you can make test automation happen during, not after, the sprint, and how to engage the creativity of the whole team right from the word "go".
his talk will present the core concepts of Exponential Business Agility, or XBA. XBA is a set of patterns for organising value streams around self-organising, autonomous teams, and is part of the XSCALE approach to scaling agile. XBA combines the Spotify model with practice patterns drawn from the Iroquois Confederacy, the most successful and longest-lived holarchy in history.
Learn how Throughput Accounting optimises the contribution of each business function to top line throughput rather than blindly attempting to minimise operating expense.
And discover how Self-Propagating Transformation avoids pushing change into pre-existing teams, programs or silos, but generates agile capability by grafting the kernel of a new culture onto the trunk of the old.
Be a pod of dolphins, not a dancing elephant. Don’t try to scale agile. De-scale your organisation instead.
As projects get faster and teams get leaner, the need to write high quality automated acceptance criteria quickly and efficiently has never been greater. Engineers in Test simply cannot afford to spend time maintaining brittle tests. And yet, without solid test automation strategies, this is what many teams find themselves doing. In this workshop, you will learn a better way. You will learn how to write clean, clear and maintainable tests using the Screenplay Pattern, an innovative new approach to writing BDD-style automated acceptance tests that are easier to understand, easier to extend and easier to maintain. The workshop will be a practical demonstration of the principles of good automated test design. There will be live coding of real-world BDD automated acceptance tests in abundance, using Java, Serenity BDD and Cucumber. We will go from requirements and BDD-style Acceptance Criteria in Cucumber right through to automated acceptance tests and living documentation.
Writing good acceptance criteria is one of the keys to effective software delivery. But it’s hard. In this workshop, you will learn about Feature Mapping, a new technique and easy that can help teams write higher quality acceptance criteria more easily. Feature Mapping is an excellent way to build a deep shared understanding of a story's requirements and clear a path to a smooth implementation of automated acceptance tests.
International speaker and author of “BDD in Action” John Ferguson Smart shows how you can multiply your team’s productivity and innovation by engaging the creativity of your whole team from the outset. Drawing from his long experience helping teams deliver better software faster and more effectively, John will discuss the latest practical techniques leveraged from Behaviour Driven Development, Lean Enterprise, DevOps, and Test Automation, combined with research in Psychology and Team Performance, to show you how to get the best out of your teams. Learn about the new roles of business analysts, developers and testers in a DevOps world, and how testers can play a vital role in not only detecting defects but preventing them. Discover how you can make test automation happen during, not after, the sprint, and how to engage the creativity of the whole team right from the word "go".
IT teams today are under constant pressure to deliver more value sooner, and Behaviour Driven Development (BDD) is one of the more effective ways to help teams deliver the high quality software that their business needs. When they adopt BDD, many teams look to tools like Cucumber to help them. But BDD isn’t simply about picking up a new tool.
In fact, there is a lot more to BDD than Given/When/Then and tools like Cucumber, and both can be misused. In this talk, we will take a step back and look at the bigger picture, and learn why using Gherkin at the wrong time, or for the wrong purpose, may be holding you back.

The changing role of testing and test automation in the increasingly fast-paced world of continuous delivery and automated acceptance testing. Learn how, in a DevOps environment, testing activities start with requirements discovery and definition, playing a vital role in not only detecting defects, but preventing them, and ensuring not only that the features are built right, but the right features are built. And learn how test automation needs to happen during, not after, the sprint, and how you can achieve this.
Despite rumors to the contrary, the role of the tester is not diminished with the arrival of automated DevOps, with its ultra-rapid deployment cycles and its emphasis on automation. On the contrary, testers play a vital role in ensuring that the code that gets deployed ten times a day is worth deploying.
Learn how to write robust and articulate tests using the Screenplay Pattern, an innovative approach to writing BDD-style automated acceptance tests that are easier to understand, easier to extend and easier to maintain.

Every test tells a story, but some tell a better story than others. Every test illustrates a specific path through the system to achieve a specific goal, but some paths are clearer than others. Valuable tests are the ones that both tell a compelling story, and can stand the test of time, providing value not only as acceptance tests but also as living documentation and easily maintainable regression tests.
In this session, John will invite you to come on a journey of discovery to learn how to write clean, clear and maintainable tests using the Journey Pattern, an innovative new approach to writing automated acceptance tests that are easier to understand, easier to extend and easier to maintain. You will also witness a demonstration of these principles in action, with live coding of Serenity BDD automated tests.
Learn how to plan, prioritise and deliver higher value features by thinking of deliverable features not in terms of what they cost, but of what they can deliver.
XScale is a set of practices based on BDD that enables a product team to efficiently define, budget and prioritise a roadmap or backlog.
It’s also a way to answer some questions Agile has traditionally avoided:
- How much will a set of features cost?
- How do we trade off different feature sets?
- How do we know a feature is ready to ship?
In this workshop, we outline several key practices and practice using a few of them. The main practices we cover include:
- Feature Points, a way to reconcile budgets with story points
- Backlog Bingo determines the dollar investment and relative return for a set of products and services
- Royal Cod applies Backlog Bingo to prioritize a Breadth-First Roadmap
- Release Refactoring enables product owners to make rational trade-offs between feature-sets.
Behaviour Driven Development is a powerful collaboration technique that can empower teams to deliver higher value features to the business faster and more effectively. But although Behaviour Driven Development is based on a number of simple principles, it can go dramatically wrong in a myriad of different ways.
In this talk we discuss twelve BDD anti-patterns we frequently encounter in real-world BDD projects, anti-patterns that can dramatically reduce the effectiveness of BDD as a practice, and that can even cause BDD adoption to fail entirely. Looking at everything from insufficient collaboration practices to poor use of test automation tooling, from teams that test too much to teams that forget the most important scenarios, we will look at the many different ways that BDD can go wrong, and how it should be done.
We will use real-world examples to illustrate each of these anti-patterns. You will learn how to spot these issues in your own projects, and more importantly how to avoid them in the first place.

Behaviour-Driven Development (BDD) is a game changer for the whole team! Behaviour Driven Development is a powerful collaboration technique that can empower teams to deliver higher value features to the business faster and more effectively. More than just a testing technique, BDD is both a collaboration and a verification tool, and a vital step on the road to Continuous Delivery.
Think BDD is just for web sites? Think again! In this talk, we rethink traditional software testing strategies in the context of micro-services and Behaviour-Driven Development. We will see how traditional testing approaches are both inadequate and poorly targeted for micro-services development. We will learn how to use BDD techniques to discover, describe and document micro-service requirements, and tools like Cucumber and Serenity to turn these requirements into automated acceptance tests and living documentation. We will see how Consumer-Driven Contract tools help ensure that micro-services play well together, and how you can implement the details with the help of unit-testing tools like Spock and REST-Assured.

Behaviour Driven Development is an increasingly popular Agile practice that turns testing on its head, and involves a major shift in the role testers play in a project. Although popularly associated with automated acceptance testing and tools like Cucumber, BDD actually has much broader applications. In this talk, we will look at how Behaviour Driven Development radically changes the traditional tester role in Agile projects, and empowers them to tangibly contribute much more to the successful outcomes of the project. We will see how collaboratively discussing and defining acceptance criteria help reduce assumptions and errors in the early phases of the project, and help ensure that the features being built are well understood, testable, and valuable to the business. We will look at ways to write more effective, easier to maintain automated acceptance criteria, that free testers to do more productive testing tasks such as exploratory testing. And we will see how automated and manual acceptance test reporting can be combined to provide valuable progress, product documentation and release preparation reporting.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

9. You define goals to achieve your vision
“Let’s increase advertising
revenue by letting sellers
post their classified ads
“Let’s get more sales for our advertisers by
making the ads easier to find online.”
Goals that will deliver business value
10. Features help deliver these goals
“Let’s get more sales for our advertisers by
making the ads easier to find online.”
Notify potential buyers about new items
In Search for online of advertised articles
order to increase sales ads
As aorder to increase sales of advertised articles
In seller
I want previous buyers to know about new items
As a seller
that theybuyers be interested in buying ads for
I want might to be able to easily find
articles they want to buy
11. We use examples and stories to explore the features
Search for online ads
“Searching by category”
“Searching by keyword and category”
“Searching by keyword and location”
“Filter ads by price”
12. We use examples and stories to explore the features
Search for online ads
Searching by keyword and location
Given
Sally
wants
to
buy
a
puppy
for
her
son
When
she
looks
for
ads
in
the
‘Pets
and
Animals’
category
containing
the
word
‘puppy’
in
New
South
Wales
Then
she
should
obtain
a
list
of
ads
for
puppies
in
New
South
Wales.
Acceptance Criteria illustrate and validate the stories
13. We automate the acceptance criteria
search_by_keyword_and_location.story
Scenario: Searching by keyword and location
Given Sally wants to buy a puppy for her son
When she looks for ads in the ‘Pets and Animals’ category containing
the word ‘puppy’ in New South Wales
Then she should obtain a list of ads for puppies in New South Wales.
14. And we implement the acceptance criteria
search_by_keyword_and_location.story
Scenario: Searching by keyword and location
Given Sally wants to buy a puppy for her son
When she looks for ads in the ‘Pets and Animals’ category containing
the word ‘puppy’ in New South Wales
Then she should obtain a list of ads for puppies in New South Wales.
15. We can now execute our automated acceptance tests
“Searching by keyword and
location” is now a pending test
16. ...and implement the application code for that feature
When it is implemented, it will
be displayed as a passing test
17. ...and implement the application code for that feature
And the corresponding feature
is now partially completed
25. Jenkins - it’s how we automate stuff, boss.
