You don’t have a deployment problem. You have a validation problem.
TL;DR
Many teams believe they face deployment challenges, but the real issue lies in validation processes. By focusing on improving validation, teams can enhance their deployment success rates.
✦ Why It Matters
Start implementing CI/CD practices today to enhance your software validation and reduce deployment failures.
Key Takeaways
- Assess if your team can ship a validated change independently.
- Implement isolated testing for each pull request against real dependencies.
- Utilize a stable environment for rapid validation of changes.
- Shift towards machine-speed validation to improve deployment confidence.
How It Works
To achieve independent deployability, each pull request should run against a stable environment that includes real dependencies. This allows for isolated testing of changes without waiting for shared environments, enabling rapid feedback and validation.
