The term “DevOps” was coined by Patrick Debois back in 2009 to communicate the idea that developers and operations people need to connect with each other and work together.

Indeed, in the intervening 7-plus years, along with creating great tools and addressing Flow, Feedback, and Continuous Learning & Experimentation in our practices, the DevOps community has put a lot of effort into the human side of the equation – how to actually connect Dev and Ops.

In this session, Alan Koch (LinkedIn profile) will explore one particularly radical idea for making this connection: Inserting Ops people onto Dev teams.

To navigate the DevOps journey,  Agile software delivery, or any other transformation, you must embrace the new testing challenges and paradigms that come with the transition.

Fitting performance testing in your continuous delivery process will ensure that issues will be discovered early in the development cycle, but …

• How feasible is to test for performance with each code change?
• How much can you automate?
• Can you re-use functional test scripts for performance testing?
• When is it okay, if ever, to push code to production without testing for performance?

In this webcast, Jason & Oded will explore:

• Integration with Agile/DevOps practices
• Optimizing performance of applications
• Impact of big data/IOT on performance testing

RefineM’s webinar series on agile practices that can be utilized by waterfall teams continues with a discussion of smaller iterations.

The nature of an agile project can change drastically depending on the length of iterations, since the iteration cadence drives activities such as review of working functionality and retrospectives.

What iteration lengths work best, and how can waterfall teams learn from this guidance to develop their own similar cadence for key activities?

Learn about this and more in this month’s webinar.
