Dynatrace news. DevSecOps is a cross-team collaboration framework that integrates security into DevOps processes from the start rather than waiting to address security in a separate silo. With an integrated DevSecOps approach, organizations can reduce security risk without derailing development timelines. But what exactly does this mean? How is it different from DevOps, and what’s next for the relationship between development, security, and operations within enterprises?

API Test is crucial for the software systems to function at high quality. Every app you build nowadays completely relies on Application Programming Interfaces. Application Programming Interface acts as the center level between the database and presentation layer in the software development procedure. It is mainly the channel that links the client to the server, drives business procedures, and gives the services which give worth to users.

The notions of accountability and responsibility often pop up in the context of business, as if both of those ideas are good things. A culture of accountability, we’re told, is essential to running a business. The word “accountable” appears all over the 2020 Scrum Guide, as if it’s somehow an Agile notion instead of capitulation… The post #NoAccountability appeared first on Allen Holub.

The phrase “serverless computing” appears contradictory at first, but for years now, successful companies have understood the benefit of using serverless technologies to streamline operations and reduce costs. Still, this model is not ideal in every situation. So what exactly does “serverless” mean, and how can your organization benefit from it?

What do you think about cross-browser testing ? Developers likely develop on only one browser – and maybe only one operating system. How does an app maker ensure that defects on other browsers will not affect their user base? In theory, cross-browser testing can help companies catch product defects before products get released to customers. But the legacy approach – setting up a bunch of parallel devices and running tests across each – incurs significant engineering skill and resource cost.
