This document discusses principles for successful release management in large enterprises. It recommends: (1) defining an environment strategy upfront to plan testing sandboxes; (2) integrating code early through continuous integration; (3) building quality through techniques like regression testing; (4) measuring changes through metrics like bugs introduced; and (5) automating deployments through repeated processes. The goal is to reduce risk, increase stability, and improve throughput during the software release process.

Curious about Continuous Integration? Tune in!
Continuous Integration (CI), which is a big part of continuous delivery, is the concept of continuously building and testing software using an automated process. We have learned that utilizing CI could help us catch bugs earlier, enable better visibility, reduce repetitive processes, enable the development team to produce deployable products at a moment's notice, and reduce risk overall.
These slides will identify the various levels of continuous integration and delivery with regards to a release maturity of the development team or parent organization.
Continuous Integration - Software development lifecycle for Force.com projectsAldo Fernandez
Continuous integration refers to the practice of frequently integrating and testing code, rather than waiting until the end of a project or development cycle. The practice of continuous integration is a well established best practice that has been used with software development across multiple platforms and languages.
Implementing an automated continuous integration system usually involves a source code repository, used to store the code during team development, and a continuous integration tool that polls the repository for changes and automatically builds and deploys the code in a sandbox.

Back-end testing is an unfamiliar testing area to many testers, especially when the Back-end adopts web services technologies and has gigabytes of data need to be verified. The presentation will outlines numbers of testing activities that need to be done to deal with challenges.
Services/Domain Testing Introduction:
We have been providing automation test service for Back-end system which has web services, web application technologies and meta-data processing. The domain we has worked on is about Communication Media and Entertainment.
Challenges:
Complex business logic inside layer of data storage and processing to provide services. Different platforms under test.
Defragmented testing result so it is difficult to make decision.
Must align testing with development life cycle.
Solutions:
Apply automation testing to Continuous Integration.
Design automation test framework to deal with Shell, Web Service, Web Application, gigabytes of XML Data on Windows and Linux.
Select proper technology stack to centralize the testing result from both manual and automation teams.
Jenkins is continuous integration and continuous delivery application, as start point, run its job to build source code from development team. When unit testing for source code is passed, automated system test written by LISA is launched as flow controller for automation test framework.
The LISA’s core functionalities are to verify middleware layer, web services based on SOAP/RESTful and database. Extending LISA’ capabilities are also applied in practice to test different technologies under test such as web application by integrating with Selenium, Shell Script by JCraft and processing big data file by Xstream/JAXB.
Talk given by Andrey Falko, Principle Software Engineer at Salesforce, at Jenkins meetup on October 2016
Salesforce has a very high security bar, especially around the path to production for software. Last year, we worked on an initiative to use Jenkins to deliver software securely and reliably to production. We will present our approach for seamlessly on-boarding new and legacy components into our service. We'll walk you through how we integrated Docker into our system to give users more control and to enable CD. As a bonus, we will also review into how we are fusing the above with our monitoring systems to allow for self-service deployments.
About: Andrey Falko is a Tech Lead in the Diagnostics, Visibility and Analytics Cloud at Salesforce. In his 7+ years at the company he has built and scaled CI systems for three different groups. Use cases have been large systems such as Salesforce's flagship CRM product, a virtual machine management system, and more recently, SOA components in the Salesforce Infrastructure Cloud.

BizDevOps – Delivering Business Value Quickly at ScaleQASymphony
BIZDEVOPS – DELIVERING BUSINESS VALUE QUICKLY AT SCALE
65+% of surveyed organizations are currently on the path to switch to DevOps or have already implemented the process, and the benefits of a properly implemented DevOps program are clear – quicker time to customer value, better alignment between businesses and customers, and a better ability to respond to customer input. However, when it comes to DevOps adoption, many teams rush to focus on one specific issue within one area when they would actually benefit more from aligning business, development, testing, and operations up front. The five major problems in DevOps adoption include:
Lack of Test Automation Coverage
Lack of Visibility into Testing
Maintaining Various Test Versions and Aligning Tests with Versions of Source Code
Maintaining a Single Source of Truth in the Testing Process
Understanding Where Business Value Currently is in the “BizDevOps” Pipeline
After helping hundreds of customers in their DevOps journeys, these three industry experts will cover these major problems, as well as innovative strategies to overcome them:
Bobby Smith – Director of R&D, QAS Labs
Brandon Cipe – VP DevOps, cPrime
Kevin Dunne – VP Business Development, QASymphony
Tune in to learn more about the state of the industry, the direction that DevOps adoption is moving toward, and what we like to call “BizDevOps”. You won’t want to miss this session!

Introduction to Scrum presentation which outlines common issues in software development, what is Scrum, and an introduction to the Scrum framework. This presentation has been used for training and presentations to both technology and business audiences.
Behavior Driven Development is one of the most commonly misunderstood techniques in DevOps, but it is also one of the key enablers of both an Agile culture and true continuous deployment. This talk will attempt to fill in the missing pieces on exactly what BDD is and how your teams can use it to increase communication, drive quality, and reduce waste. We will also connect the dots on why you need a test-first strategy to enable trunk-based development, continuous integration, and continuous deployment. If your business still struggles with monthly or quarterly big-batch releases, this talk will show you what your teams must do to evolve to the next stage of continuous delivery.
More and more companies worldwide are excited about DevOps and the many potential benefits of embarking on a DevOps transformation.

From four to forty in four years - lessons from growing a teamRich Allen
Between 2016 and 2020, the PureGym IT Team grew from 4 to 40 people. During that time Rich worked closely with them to navigate the tricky process of scaling. This talk is a journey through that growth period and discusses the variety of processes and practices that were applied in order to stay "Agile".
We'll touch on the various approaches taken including topics such as Scrum, Lean, Kanban, GIST planning, Lean Startup, DevOps, IaC, Azure, Story Mapping, BDD, TDD, Project vs Product and we'll be looking at the successes, failures and lessons learned.
We'll also look at how concepts from Team Topologies were applied, what team structures and interaction models were chosen and how that shifted the team dynamic. We will discuss what, in Rich's opinion, has worked well and what hasn't worked well during that time.
At very least you will walk away from this session with a long list of books to read and hopefully some insights into whether you might want to try some of the approaches discussed during the talk.

How often is it happening? Release cycles
What types of change? Triggers, pages, fields, workflows etc.,
What are the results of those # of bugs introduced, severity of bugs,
changes? downtime (in minutes, in dollars),
26. Principle #5
Lather, Rinse and Repeat
Automate Deployment
27. Summary
Define an environment strategy upfront. Plan for LDV.
Bring the pain forward. Integrate code early.
Build quality in. 100% code coverage is NOT enough.
Measure. Measure. Measure.
Lather, Rinse and Repeat. Automate Deployments.
