So what happens to The Gatekeeper? The Future of Change Management in a Conti...XebiaLabs
The document discusses the future role of "The Gatekeeper" in organizations that adopt continuous delivery practices. It argues that in a continuous delivery environment, where changes are smaller and more frequent, the costs of waiting for manual approval are generally not outweighed by the benefits. However, gatekeepers are well-positioned to help organizations transition to continuous delivery by facilitating better collaboration between business and IT, and understanding how automation can replace manual approval processes while still ensuring quality. The gatekeeper's role will evolve from a manual approver to a "Master of the Pipeline" who can iterate changes more quickly while maintaining appropriate risk management.
This document discusses performance testing and provides information on several related topics:
- It defines performance, load, and stress testing and explains their differences.
- It outlines why performance testing is important, when it should be conducted, and what aspects of a system should be tested.
- The performance testing process is described as involving planning, creating test scenarios and scripts, running tests, monitoring tests, and analyzing results.
- Automated performance testing is presented as more effective than manual testing due to issues with resources, coordination, and repeatability when using human testers.

The Cmmi Its So Much More Than Merely Improving Software Processes 1205172652...oneloveforch
The document discusses the Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI). It provides an overview of the CMMI, explaining that it is a framework that describes effective processes and guides organizations towards improving their processes. The CMMI models processes for development, acquisition, and services. It addresses the need for process improvement by describing symptoms of immature processes and benefits of focusing on process.
The document discusses the challenges of managing performance for modern web applications. It notes that traditional monitoring tools are inadequate as they do not measure from the user's perspective and cannot account for factors like third-party content and dynamic architectures. The document advocates for a new approach that directly measures response time at the browser level to provide accurate, correlated data across tiers. This real user monitoring allows teams to quickly triage issues, understand business impact, and optimize performance.
The CMMI: It’s So Much More Than Merely Improving Software ProcessesHenry Schneider
The Software Engineering Institute (SEI) has been in the Capability Maturity Model (CMM) business since the late 80s. Resulting from the success of the Software CMM, in the 90s other CMMs began to proliferate. Rather than create and maintain a family of similar models, the SEI elected to combine several bodies of knowledge (Project Management, Systems Engineering, Software Engineering, Acquisition, Services, etc.) into one model framework, the Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) released in December 2000. The CMMI describes best practices for the development and maintenance of products and services across the entire lifecycle. By integrating essential bodies of knowledge, the CMMI provides a single, comprehensive framework for organizations to assess their development and maintenance processes, implement improvements, and measure progress. This presentation provides a high level overview of the CMMI and its applicability to hardware development, systems engineering, software engineering, and/or acquisition organizations, benefits realized by organizations implementing the CMMI, and data demonstrating its international acceptance.

Continuous Performance Testing: The New StandardTechWell
In the past several years the software development lifecycle has changed significantly with high-speed software releases, shared application services, and platform virtualization. The traditional performance assurance approach of pre-release testing does not address these innovations. To maintain confidence in acceptable performance in production, pre-release testing must be augmented with in-production performance monitoring. Obbie Pet describes three types of monitors—performance, resource, and VM platform—and three critical metrics fundamental to isolating performance problems—response time, transaction rate, and error rate. Obbie reviews techniques to acquire and interpret these metrics, and describes how to develop a continuous performance monitoring process. In conjunction with pre-release testing, this monitoring can be woven into a single integrated process, offering a best bet in assuring performance in today’s development world. Take away this integrated process for consideration in your own shop.

Alt. GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using ...James Anderson
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).

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
