What are quality gates? How to use quality gates to deliver better software at speed and scale

Dynatrace

FEBRUARY 21, 2024

To remain competitive in today’s fast-paced market, organizations must not only ensure that their digital infrastructure is functioning optimally but also that software deployments and updates are delivered rapidly and consistently. They help foster confidence and consistency throughout the entire software development lifecycle (SDLC).

Software quality describes the characteristics of a software product that make it capable of meeting the needs of its users and stakeholders. Basically, it measures how well a piece of software performs the functions for which it was designed, as well as how well it complies with its requirements.

DECEMBER 22, 2021

Complex information systems fail in unexpected ways. Observability gives developers and system operators real-time awareness of a highly distributed system’s current state based on the data it generates. With observability, teams can understand what part of a system is performing poorly and how to correct the problem.

David Daly’s presentation at LTB 2020 , How to Waste Time and Money Test ing the Performance of a Software Product, is probably a good introduction [Video] — [Slides]. 34 (2020), Performance Testing with David Daly , is another good introduction. One of most important issues in continuous performance testing is variability.

JUNE 1, 2023

In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, ensuring high-quality software is crucial for organizations to thrive. Service level objectives (SLOs) provide a powerful framework for measuring and maintaining software performance, reliability, and user satisfaction. But the pressure on CIOs to innovate faster comes at a cost.

SEPTEMBER 4, 2018

When trying to develop a new piece of software or an app, one of the first things a developer has to do is pick a programming language. The Scala system does have its own compiler, but it does not perform as the javac compiler does. Giants in this industry like NetBeans and Eclipse all have an IDE in the Java system.

Reinventing Performance Testing: Agile

Alex Podelko

OCTOBER 13, 2016

Agile development eliminates the main problem of tradition development: you need to have a working system before you may test it, so performance testing happened at the last moment. While it was always recommended to start performance testing earlier, it was usually rather few activities you can do before the system is ready.
