unfold_lessunfold_more The Pipeline Driven Organization — Enabling True Continuous Delivery at Scale
Key takeaways
- Why DevOps Adoptions fail at large enterprises
- What does "pipeline driven" mean and how it enables continuous delivery
- Getting Dev, Test, Security Ops and Compliance on board
- Skills needed in continuous delivery based organization
A Pipeline Driven Organization is operating around the idea that automated pipelines make the important IT decisions such as: - When is it OK to deploy a new version? - Is a feature working? - When and how to deploy a new environment - When to rollback (or forward) a new version - Are we compliant and secure? - Is the code releasable? - Are the infrastructure changes OK? In traditional organizations, even though automated pipelines may exist, they do not make the important & continuous IT decisions. Humans do. In a pipeline driven organization, experts from various categories of work spend much of their time teaching and learning from other people, and teaching the pipelines how to make proper decisions (using automated specialized tests). In this way they can trust the pipeline enough to let it make the decisions instead

Key takeaways
- Test-First Mechanics and their reasons
- TDD is not about testing. It is about Development.
- Design ideas and refactoring.
In this talk Roy Osherove takes you through the development of a simple feature in a test driven way. The basic ideas of TDD are shown, with explanations of why they might be useful. We'll also do some refactoring for the tests and the production code. This talk is based on the upcoming book "The Art of Unit Testing in Javascript" by Roy Osherove.
