mabl is happy to host the first webinar for the Testing in DevOps community, which aims to help testers learn about all things devOps, and devOps practitioners learn about testing.
DevOps is about the whole team - including operations specialists - working together to deliver value to customers frequently, without drama or stress. It’s that continual loop: together we identify the most valuable capability to delivery next. We build and test it, test and build it, together. We have created a pipeline to deploy it to production, together. We monitor and observe how customers use, or don’t use it, and respond to any issues in production. We identify the most valuable capability to deliver next.
Join leading practitioners Abby Bangser, Marit van Dijk, Maryam Umar and Lisa Crispin as they discuss how teams build it / test it / run it together. You don’t have to be a DevOps expert to contribute to this effort as a tester. Understanding customer needs, asking questions, and collaborating lets us all contribute.
We uploaded the panel audio to SoundCloud so you can listen to the webinar on the go. Choose how you'd like to partake in the discussion.
