Keeping public services running smoothly

Ensuring AI products' quality, robustness, performance, and explainability is crucial in today's digital landscape.

That seems a shocking play on acronyms! What do we mean by it?

In the ever-evolving landscape of software development, ensuring the quality of applications has never been more important, as evidenced in the World Quality Report 2023-24, which stated that quality is now a boardroom priority.

We explore why it’s an imperative element in Continuous Integration, Continuous Delivery and Continuous Deployment Models.

The importance of software quality and it's correlation to enhancing an organisation’s performance and user satisfaction cannot be overstated.

The cost of living crisis is in full swing, the recession has begun, organisations need to maintain an edge to survive and thrive. The dependence on digital commerce and services is a focal point. Software delivery programmes intended to provide that advantage are key.

In this blog, we break down the differences between Behaviour Driven Development and Test Automation and look at the function of each in the modern testing landscape.

Testing can be guilty of focusing on how tests are performed, not what results they produce. This blog looks at specific testing metrics and how to choose the right ones.

Accessibility should be integral to digital service development from the start, not an afterthought.

In this blog, we explore how to choose the right metrics for DevOps adoption.

As we consider the overall context and goal of digital transformation we can identify three main tiers of activity: Tools and individual skills, process and organisation.

We explore how Chaos Engineering represents the maturity pinnacle of Cloud engineering practices, and ultimately software testing too.

As we continue into the era of hyperscale Cloud computing and high-frequency DevOps we can examine the increased role and importance of QA and software testing.

Continuous Testing in DevOps is a software testing type that involves testing the software at every stage of the software development life cycle.

As the term suggests this simply refers to product management practices applied specifically to the development of digital services.

A key recommendation is to encourage the “shifting left” of testing practices, perform them earlier, and be an integral part of the development process.

2i can help organisations establish a DevOps Centre of Excellence, a central structure that can facilitate the adoption of industry best practices.

Having infrastructure as code would allow the developers or team to test and validate the code before the actual deployment.

There are four Flow Metrics that measure how value flows through a product's value stream. They are calculated on four Flow Items - units of work that matter to a business: features, defects, debt, and risk.

Successfully embracing a new DevOps paradigm will require a transformation of team and workflow patterns as well as technologies.

As organisations move to adopting the Cloud, software testing continues to be a component part essential to its success.

It’s not just scalability that makes microservices such a powerful approach for enterprise organizations, it also enables faster development of new software too.

A core capability underpinning the shift to Cloud Native DevOps is treating 'Infrastructure as Code' (IaC).
