Over the last decade, DevOps has emerged as an influential business philosophy and practice, helping businesses drive high quality software to market faster. DevOps focuses on the elimination of bottlenecks that occur when development and operational resources are too divorced from one another. But what about friction in the development and test process? What about the delayed feedback cycles that come from slow builds and test flakiness? How can we reduce friction in areas that are outside of the focus of DevOps? The presentation will include examples of DPE practices in action from Java projects using the Maven or Gradle build tool.
A barrage of software philosophies have hit the industry over the last few years, all claiming to reduce friction in digital transformation. But what does that mean organizationally and where does open source play into all of this?
What if we could achieve completely ‘contactless’ software security scanning? As the lines between physical and digital security become blurrier and blurrier, software quality standards and testing methodologies must continue to keep pace. Software fuzzing has long been a trusted method for finding vulnerabilities that are difficult to discover using traditional methods.
