Ripening of a RESTful API
•
0 likes•1,011 views
How our product, the HERE Places RESTful API, ripened over time and how our understanding of quality changed over time. As every distinguished wine is the result of a long refining and ripening process, every software product is subject to a similar evolution, too. Of course along the journey of a product, the understanding of “Quality” is subject to major changes as well. Lets join the 3-year journey of a software product through its various stages, from planning, seeding to its first wine tasting (that is, the beta offer), to selling the first bottles (that is, the service is used by other internal products), finally to its market readiness (that is, becoming a commercial B2B offer with SLAs). The product under test is the Places RESTful API (places.demo.api.here.com), which delivers data for Places that are shown in various products, for instance for Nokia’s HERE.com maps. We concentrate on three different aspects and how they change over time: * the understanding of what quality means, * the test strategy, and last but not least * how to deal with the intrinsic complexity. We are going to explore the post production deployment part of our process: How we ensure the high availability of this complex service, as well as which test techniques, feedback mechanisms and in particular which visualizations (monitoring 2.0) we leverage for this purpose. Presented a the Agile Testing Days 2013.

HCLT Whitepaper: Multi- Tenancy on Private Cloud
http://www.hcltech.com/engineering-rd-services/overview~ More on Engineering and R&D
Advances in cloud computing technology and changes in business models create major paradigm shifts in the way software applications are designed, built, and delivered to end users. The concept of multi-tenancy is one of the key and direct derivatives of cloud computing. Multi-tenancy is an architectural model that optimizes resource sharing. The applications will be deployed and delivered from a shared environment while providing sufficient levels of isolation to the tenants and Quality of Service (QoS) throughout the environment. Like any other paradigm shift, a cloud-based delivery (SaaS) model also comes with a new set of technical challenges.
This paper provides a technical overview on how to convert an application traditionally hosted on-premise to a multi-tenant environment and deliver through an SaaS model. This paper also covers the challenges and benefits of moving this to a cloud infrastructure.
Excerpts from the Paper
The advent of cloud computing boosted a new business model for delivering software, which is generally termed SaaS (Software as a Service). ISVs started realizing the necessity of transforming their traditional on-premise products to the new ―cloud business model. Multi-tenancy is the fundamental design approach that essentially improves the acceptability of SaaS applications. The idea of multi-tenancy, or many tenants sharing resources, is fundamental to cloud computing. Isolation and service assurance are the key elements to be addressed. Isolation ensures that the resources of existing tenants remain untouched, and the integrity of the applications, workloads, and data remain uncompromised when the service provider provisions new tenants. Each tenant may have access to different amounts of network, computing, and storage resources in the shared virtual environment. Tenants see only those resources allocated to them.

Best Practices for API Adoption
APIs have become ubiquitous and they have profoundly changed the way we connect to the world. They have opened the doors to enterprise back-end infrastructure and made it possible for developers to build innovative mobile applications. But this IT revolution comes with its share of challenges. “If we build it they will come” is no longer an effective API launch strategy. AnyPresence and WIP Factory are joining forces to share valuable best practices on improving API adoption.

Dynamic clouds and networks without infrastructure
The internet will not scale to support >7Bn people and >50Bn things on line, but Clouds and Networks Without Infrastructure will, and they are neither singular nor static. Clouds are entirely dynamic and multi-modal with; public, private, personal, open, closed, government and commercial clouds that are fixed, mobile, long and short lived, permanent and transitory. In addition the new degrees of freedom that Clouds afford makes them inherently more secure and resilient than any network medium we have created before. But, not all clouds are equal, and neither is all data!
The era of IT Departments providing centralised networking and security is drawing to a rapid close in the same way that sitting in front of a PC in an office all day is becoming unworkable. So, it is time to rethink what has to change in order to adapt to rapidly growing BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) and BMOB (Be My Own Boss) cultures. At the same time, ecological, social, commercial and technology demands are pushing toward more and smaller devices, the tagging and tracking of everything, whilst using less material and energy. This all demands more wireless and new modes of networking demanding more optical fibre especially in the last mile where Point to Point systems will replace the outmoded BPON and GPON technologies of the past. In this symmetric wide bandwidth future there is no place or part to plat by the old copper local loop technologies, and the mobile operators @ 3,4,5G will be further relegated to transporting < 1% of the total traffic of the future connected world. New species of WiFi and BlueTooth will emerge to dominate mobile connectivity and transport with the short range hops to a vastly increased number of fibre fed hot spots in room, on floor, in building, and on campus.
SITB15 - Qu'est qu'une Data Driven Company à l'heure de la digitalisation ?
Session jouée au Salon Swiss IT Business le 22 avril 2015
Digitalisation, Big Data, data-driven company : trois buzz words omniprésents dans les stratégies informatiques aujourd'hui, et qui semblent intimement liés. Alors, qu'est qu'une "data driven company" ? Est-ce une entreprise poussant à l'extrême l'utilisation de Big Data afin de se digitaliser ?
Pas seulement... une "data driven company" est une entreprise qui cherche continuellement à améliorer l’ensemble des processus de l’entreprise par l’utilisation qualitative et quantitative de données, tout le temps, partout et sur tout.
Ce sujet nous touche dans notre quotidien, que ce soit au niveau technologique, des processus, de l'organisation, et surtout de la culture, et a des conséquences qui transforment tous les métiers.
Cette session reviendra sur les éléments structurants qui distinguent une data-driven company et détaillera en quoi cette culture peut être un accélérateur de votre stratégie de transformation digitale.

5 or 6 API Adoption Strategies
For a public API, adoption is key. Finding the right developers can be resource-intensive. Few companies can afford to blanket the web and every conference in advertising. Even if you could, the results might not be nearly as good as the time-tested methods covered in this presentation. From grassroots to traditional, to be successful most providers will likely want to take multiple approaches to growing their APIs. A community approach can pay dividends if you have the resources. Yet some may take a sales- or partnership-based approach. Almost everyone should be creating the right kind of content that speaks to developers. And the open source approach is highly scalable when done authentically.
Social Media Specialist
Social media is one of those incredibly amorphous things right now that many people are trying to explain. I myself have struggled with the best way to represent what I do and how I do it, without getting to heavy into the details. I like to analogize it in this way, "People know that they need to change their oil every 3,000 miles, they don't necessarily need to know why or how it is done."
Social media is something that companies know they need to do, they just might not know why or how it it all works. I hope this slideshow helps to clarify quickly why social media is important and how I do it.

Città di Bassano Del Grappa
Lavoro primo classificato al contest "Bassano nel Cuore".
Il presente progetto è frutto di un’ idea basata su uno dei posti più suggestivi e storici di Bassano del Grappa: Il ponte degli Alpini. Il Logotipo è ispirato quindi ad una visione prospettica del Ponte, il quale simbolizza e racchiude la storia, la cultura e l’arte di Bassano.
I quattro pilastri si prestano egregiamente al tipo di realizzazione grafica e sistema di segnaletica pensato in partenza e i quattro colori corporativi sono desunti da una elaborazione del giallo e del rosso ovvero i colori dello stemma di Bassano del Grappa. La decisione quindi di riflettere i luoghi e le attività nei quattro colori elaborati, utilizzando un sistema iconografico realizzato per identificare gli stessi.

Wrestling with Conway's Law: How to support cross-functional teams working on...
Wrestling with Conway's Law: How to support cross-functional teams working on...Dr. Alexander Schwartz
Talk for the Agile Testing Days 2023.
Mel Conway published in 1968 the observation that the communication structure of a company has an impact on the architecture of the produced software components.
Nowadays many organizations use the “feature team approach”, that is, a preference for cross-functional teams which deliver value without depending on other teams. An implication is that several feature teams are going to work on the same components, which implies that the traditional concepts of strong component ownership are no longer applicable. This generates a myriad of challenges, e.g. teams waiting for code review from other teams.
In this talk we first revisit Conway’s Law and then explore what is required to ensure success of feature teams working on shared components. First and foremost, does the architecture, the processes, etc. really support the requirement of ease of changing a shared component?
#AT16VIE: Does Agile mean we have no time for testing?
Talk presented at the Agile Tour Vienna 2016 conference.
http://agiletourvienna.at/#scheduleModal-does-agile-mean-we-have-less-time-for-testing
ABSTRACT:
In the last decade, the speed of our industry has increased greatly. Agile Development, DevOps and Continuous Delivery are the main drivers for this paradigm shift which has now become widely accepted.
Ten years ago, it was common to only release a couple of new versions a year. Today, there are companies delivering hundreds of software deployments per day. This isn’t only true in IT, but also e.g. for Tesla-Automobile, which delivers its software updates a few times a week.
Where does quality happen when we’re releasing this often? Is it possible to have proper quality management and is there enough time for testing? How can we reduce what could be weeks of testing to deliver new features to our clients on a daily basis?
Alex is a long-term enthusiast for this topic. Based on his experiences with various products and companies, he’ll share his insights into the mystery of “faster testing”. The key questions are:
- When – When do we test?
- What – What should we test?
- Which quality aspects are important?
- How – How do we test? Which techniques are helpful?
- Who – Who is involved in testing, test automation, etc.?
- How much – How much should we test?
Furthermore, we discuss the financial benefits of Agile Testing and aiming for Continuous Quality. Last but not least we explore if it only exists in fairy tale land or if it is real.
Does agile mean having even less time for testing?!

Change Dojo - Agile Testing Days 2015
Slides of a workshop facilitated by Fanny Pittack and Alex Schwartz at the conference Agile Testing Days 2015 in Potsdam.
Main Statement:
Change dojos are creating a safe environment for practicing skills for change agents. It sets fundamentals for you and allow you to perform change.
This workshop is for everyone who is involved in improving his or her environment. As the ATD 2015 conference theme states, mastering Agile might be the competitive edge for your organization – and this requires great skills to transform your environment, to change it towards the goal of Agile mastery.In our last years keynote “Insights of Happy Change Agents” we scratched the surface of how to become a “Happy Change Agent”, how to initiate changes with ease and enthusiasm, fun and success. In this workshop we aim to dive deeper.The first part of our workshop is dedicated to the “change dojo” format. Together with your pairing partner you simulate the interaction of a change agent with a team or coachee. We practice different scenarios and we will focus step by step on various aspects like pace, distance, keeping your own space, as well as communicating clearly with your body. This provides a chance to receive instant feedback how the change is perceived by the coachee. One key learning is to appreciate any sign of frustration as a valuable indicator.The second part is intended to storytelling and listening exercises. We all have buried a story of change that somehow failed. If you attend our workshop, please bring your story with you.
Key Learnings:
- Exercises to bring back to your workplace, to practice with your team
- How to be open for feedback and listen
- How to sketch your story on a story board
- How to use your frustration as indicator
- How to reflect in various situations
Audience:
Tester, Developer, Product Owner, Scrum Master, Agile Manager, Change Agents, Agile Coach

Abstract:
Coding Dojos sind sehr bekannt und sind nun ein anerkanntes Hilfsmittel um Wissen zu vermitteln und unser Kung-Fu zu verbessern. Warum dieses Format, diese Lernmethode nicht auch für andere Themen verwenden?
In diesem Dojo fokussieren wir uns auf User Stories: ihre Akzeptanzkriterien und wie wir grosse Stories in kleinere zerschneiden können.
In Gruppenübungen werden wir unser Kung-Fu verbessern. Vielleicht wird Deine Gruppe auf Yoda-Niveau erreichen: alle Mini-Stories haben einen Wert und sind MMFs (minimal markatable features) im Sinne des Lean Startup?

Most teams introducing Continuous Delivery face problems such as "How do we fit our 4-day QA phase into a daily release rhythm?"
The transition to a DevOps strategy and Continuous Delivery usually requires a significant readjustment of the testing approach.
Alex shares stories from various companies he worked for, and discusses different ideas on how to retrofit testing for frequent releases. This includes adapting the rhythm of testing, test techniques, scope of testing, and re-thinking the entire quality assurance approach.

In his keynote at the ATD2011 Gojo Adzic covered the “Five key challenges for agile testers tomorrow”. The first one mentioned is the impact of shorter release cycles on testing: “release cycles will get shorter, so short even that there’s no time for testing.”
In this talk Alex shares what he learned about this topic during the last four years, on his journey with two companies. In both companies he helped to change the release rhythm dramatically, which had a deep impact on the all facets of the test strategy, of course including cooperation and communication structures.
Whereas some lessons learned are obvious, others are unexpected and even counter-intuitive.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdf
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.
