High Velocity Development of Microservices

GOTO Chicago 2020

Engineering teams spend significant effort on creating automated regression tests, and still cannot often go beyond “happy path” testing. Consumer technology companies therefore invested in testing in production. Unfortunately, these approaches do not apply for enterprise applications because a) their users cannot tolerate errors and b) they usually do not have as much user traffic.

In this talk, we show how “Testing in Production” can be shifted left for enterprise applications and thus enable engineering teams to achieve high velocity without having to worry about regressions and test backlog.
