Experience Report: Building test speed and confidence in a continuous delivery model

Presented by Andy Peterson, QA Manager, Costco Travel

You will learn how a growing organization has gone from a five-week release cycle with three sprints to a single two-week sprint release cycle. You will be guided in the challenges that the testing organization has had to overcome in order to test things quicker, earlier and more frequently as they change their culture to a more continuous delivery model. This was done not only with traditional only functional testing, but also the larger non-functional testing such as security and performance. These teams were able to raise the confidence of build candidates as they moved from 10 releases a year to 26 and the other benefits associated with a more frequent release cadence.
