Agile and DevOps are a great combination for software development. When combined, Agile adds structure to planned development work while DevOps incorporates unplanned work from operations teams. This allows for iterative development in small batches with test and delivery automation. It also improves team workflow by giving all members knowledge of the full development and operations lifecycle. Key practices include involving operations in sprint planning, automating workflows, implementing service backlogs under DevOps principles, using infrastructure as code tools, and including quality assurance at each phase. Measurement of outcomes helps ensure continuous improvement when applying Agile and DevOps together.

TEAM’S WORKFLOW
IMPROVEMENT
ü Broader understanding of all development aspects;
ü All team members join full lifecycle of software
delivery;
ü Team members are equipped with full knowledge
ü Build-and-run product-centric teams solve the
problem of the Agile development-to-operations
hand-off.

DEVOPS ADOPTION
IN SPRINTS
ü Invite ops/infrastructure/support personnel to
planning sessions.
ü Discuss product functionality and operability features.
ü Include them in the upcoming sprint.
ü Involve the DevOps team in sprint backlog planning
and daily meeting, as well as sprint review and scrum
and plan alignment.

AUTOMATION
WORKFLOW
ü Automate all source code
scanning process;
ü Build artifacts in a repository,
automate the release out the
door…

LEVERAGING
THE RIGHT TOOLS
Applies to your software development process
configuration management tools to create and replicate
infrastructure using the Infrastructure as a Code (IaC)
concept needed for DevOps.

15. © Copyright FPT Software – Level of Confidentiality 15
INCLUDE QUALITY ASSURANCE
IN EACH PHASE
Testing assumes a vital position when combining the two.
Besides functional testing applied in Agile, DevOps
approach requires performance and load testing of the
software. Hence, constant testing is equally as important as
continuous development.
