This document discusses the relationship between testing and monitoring in software development. It argues that while testing is important and gives confidence, it is not enough on its own since systems are complex and change frequently in production. Monitoring is needed to observe systems in production and catch unknown issues. The key aspects of monitoring discussed are instrumenting all parts of the system to have observability, monitoring metrics that affect the business, and only alerting on issues that require immediate action. Both testing and monitoring are needed, not one or the other.
