A presentation form Integration Stockholm where we shared our collected thoughts on how to implement Continuous Delivery in mainly Enterprise organisations. What has worked for us and what did not work and how to approach CI/CD and succeed...
Automated Acceptance Testing (and tool choice)
Automated acceptance testing has many names: acceptance-test driven development (ATDD), story-test driven development (STDD), agile acceptance testing and, most recently, specification by example. At the heart of all these approaches is to produce business-facing tests which are system tests running end-to-end, picking up regression issues and improving confidence that the code works as required.
In this talk, I will contextualise how each of these approaches share in common a three-tier layering strategy: acceptance criteria, test implementation layer and application driver layer. This is important because applying this approach requires a tool choice and each tool tends to have its own sweet (and blind) spot that is best understood through these layers.
I will first deep dive into sample code across a few tools (Cucumber, Fitnesse, Concordion) to illustrate this layering. I use an example that shows how to decouple the GUI from tests (window driver pattern).
Finally, I will look at some typical client scenarios to examine which tools might best suited because tool choice is not simply a host operating system question (.Net, Java, Ruby).

Jenkins as the Test Reporting FrameworkNitin Sharma
Test Reporting Framework are the ultimate utilities reached by very few companies in the world likes of google & facebook.
It require significant investment in terms money and resources. To optimize on both we tried the approach of extending Jenkins for the same purpose.
We like to share our experiences with respect to this journey. We will talk about different cahllenges we faced in doing so and how we solved them.
We strongly believe that other startup can use our experience and get benefit from this immensely.
Story Testing Approach for Enterprise Applications using Selenium FrameworkOleksiy Rezchykov
Releasing a big software product frequently on the same high quality level could became an impossible task. Story Testing approach gives a possibility for many teams to work for a same product and release it without putting enormous efforts on testing. Approach is based on the BDD technique, Feature Flags and Selenium.

Versioning strategy for a complex internal API (Konstantin Yakushev)Nordic APIs
This is a session given by Konstantin Yakushev at Nordic APIs 2016 Platform Summit on October 25th, in Stockholm Sweden.
Description:
API versioning is a very heated topic in API design world. Common approaches are passing version number explicitly (with a lot of fairly useless discussion on where exactly to put that number) or only introducing backwards-compatible changes.
When creating internal API for Badoo applications we found those approaches to be too limiting. Passing version number requires implementers to accommodate for all breaking changes when bumping version – even when it’s not required for business goals of that application at the time. Instead of driving value for business, application developers are in constant race to keep up with the API.
Never introducing incompatible changes is also not an option. After several feature redesigns (something that may happen at Badoo once every few weeks) protocol becomes bloated and half of the fields transmitted over the wire start being useless.
This talk is about our approach to versioning as part of client-server component negotiation. Client announces features and capabilities it supports and server replies with features status: whether they are enabled or disabled and whether they can be enabled by some user action (e. g. by buying some paid product).
Beside those componentized features, client also sends support flags such as SUPPORT_IMAGE_SIZE_VIA_URL which affects how API works. We use those flags where in typical API a version number bump would be required.
This approach allows both server and client to understand their current state and adjust their code accordingly – essentially, a tailor-made API for every client. Gathering data on feature and flag support among clients allows us to remove old code branches while continuing to evolve the API.
As a result, we are not afraid to change something when that change is required. Old clients continue to work while protocol rot is kept at low level.
In this talk I will give details on how exactly this versioning scheme work, how we test those changes, how and when we deprecate our old clients and note some stats and insights from using this scheme at Badoo for several years.

Are you sick of Merge Hell? Do your feature branches go rogue? Do you spend more time fiddling with your Version Control System than doing actual development work? Then Trunk Based Development might be for you. Facebook does it. Google does it. Instead of messing with multiple branches, just use your master branch. Always. In addition to giving you an overview about how Trunk Based Development works, where it shines and where the pitfalls are, this talk will also cover the necessary techniques to succeed with it, such as Branch By abstraction, Feature Toggles and backwards compatible Database Migrations.

Marcin Grzejszczak, Pivotal; Cora Iberkleid, Pivotal
"“I have stopped counting how many times I’ve done this from scratch” - was one of the responses to the tweet about starting the project called Spring Cloud Pipelines. Every company sets up a pipeline to take code from your source control, through unit testing and integration testing, to production from scratch. Every company creates some sort of automation to deploy its applications to servers. Enough is enough - time to automate that and focus on delivering business value.
In this presentation we’ll go through the contents of the Spring Cloud Pipelines project. We’ll start a new project for which we’ll have a deployment pipeline set up in no time. We’ll deploy to Cloud Foundry and check if our application is backwards compatible so that we can roll it back on production."
The promise of DevOps is that we can push new ideas out to market faster while avoiding delivering serious defects into production. Andreas Grabner explains that testers are no longer measured by the number of defect reports they enter, nor are developers measured by the lines of code they write. As a team, you are measured by how fast you can deploy high quality functionality to the end user. Achieving this goal requires testers to increase their skills. It’s all about finding solutions—not just problems. Testers must transition from reporting “app crashes” to providing details such as “memory leak caused by bad cache implementation.” Instead of reporting “it’s slow,” testers must discover “wrong hibernate configuration causes too much traffic from the database.” Using three real-life examples, Andreas illustrates what it takes for testing teams to become part of the DevOps transformation—bringing more value to the entire organization.

Releasing High Quality Packages - Longhorn PHP 2021Colin O'Dell
Releasing open-source libraries is more than sharing your GitHub URL with the world. There are many considerations and steps involved especially for successful and long-lived projects.
In this talk, we’ll cover the principles behind creating, releasing, and maintaining high-quality libraries. Topics will include structuring the repository, implementing modern PHP standards, maintaining changelogs, using CI tests, releasing new versions, and more.
Putting Quality First through Continuous TestingTechWell
Capital One has a highly integrated environment, which creates many dependencies for its agile teams. Because these dependencies are often not completed until late in their sprints, Capital One faced prolonged integration and regression testing phases, and did not realize the expected improvements in quality or time to market. As technology leaders pushed for continuous delivery, testing needed to “shift left” and execute test in real time concurrently with development. Adam Auerbach shares Capital One’s experience implementing continuous testing. He explains the core principles of continuous testing, service virtualization, and the continuous integration/continuous delivery pipeline—and why testers need to understand and leverage these important concepts. Adam believes that testers need to learn basic development skills, including Ruby and Java, so they can take advantage of advanced automation practices. Because continuous testing is not easy and many companies have large populations of manual testers, Adam will provide a learning map to help you plan your personal and team’s transition.
These days a lot of IT buzzwords about software development practices are mixed up. This 5 minute presentation (ingnite) will give you insight in the terminology used to deploy and deliver software.
Many know of the famous quote, "Premature optimization is the root of all evil," but most people do not know the full quote or understand the context in which optimization is considered evil. As with anything in programming optimization is evil, maybe. Stop using excuses for slow code, and start to think about the places and tools that you can use to optimize. Thankfully there are are many different tools like xhprof, Valgrind, and others to help us out and properly optimize our code for those times when we need to dig deep into our code.

Our DevOps Journey
Transforming 6 Month Waterfalls to 1 Hour Code Deploys
https://info.dynatrace.com/17q3_wc_from_agile_to_cloudy_devops_na_registration.html
In the 2nd part of our webinar series, Anita Engleder, DevOps Lead at Dynatrace reviews and dissects lessons learned during the transformational journey moving Dynatrace from an on-prem culture to one that is cloud native. She will lend her perspective as a key member of the team that executed on the original vision: to “implement a new cloud native offering and deploy a new feature release every 2 weeks. Additionally, be able to support a 1-hour lead time from Code Change to Production”.
On November 17th at 1pm/10am PT Anita will present the challenges she and her team faced transforming 6 Months Waterfall to 1 Hour Code Deploys.
In this webinar Anita will discuss:
How to enable a complete cultural shift across multiple teams, in terms of thought process AND execution
What the specific role of her DevOps team is and how it played into the transformation
The role of Feature teams and why continuous feedback is critical for them
How to successfully influence key stakeholders for complete alignment
Today Anita’s team runs 170 production changes every day, running across several AWS Data Centers as well as On-Premise – something that would have been thought impossible only a few years prior.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

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.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
