Measuring Value Realization Through Testing in Production
It’s a key tenet in DevOps that we shift testing left, doing it as early as we can in the software delivery cycle to optimize quality. We automate it to accelerate flow and to build the foundation for continuous delivery. But it’s an impossible dream that all software pushed to live is defect free, so what are the best patterns for testing in production? And how does ‘shifting right’ provide feedback we can build back into the continuous delivery lifecycle of DevOps?
Reduce ‘Unknown Unknowns’ Across Your CI/CD Pipeline
Applying rapid changes produces some impacts you might expect, and others which you won’t. But trying to understand every nuance of every impact can actually subtract from your ability to deliver on rapid iterations or practice the classic ‘Third Way.’ Join us to discuss practical monitoring and observability methods that DevOps and SRE teams can employ to balance change and uncertainty without the need to constantly reconfigure monitoring systems.

The conferences were very well prepared and the people giving them really knew about the topic and were sharing all their experience.
The content was spot on and the speakers were well-versed in their topics.
Good subject matter for a "lightweight" event. Really good and relevant speakers.
Interesting insight into SRE experience and some usable tactic takeaways. The format worked well and was well organized.
[I liked] having presentations packed with quality content from leading speakers from the industry. Asking questions with Q&A was really useful.
The topics and the way they are presented by people with current experience really improves my visibility in the field. The answers from the presenters during the Q&A reveal details that otherwise will be learned the hard way by my own mistakes.
Quick digestible and actionable information. This half-day event was great. I like the focus on a particular topic with different perspectives.
This was a great way to start diving into all the rich content InfoQ provides.

Brought to you by InfoQ
Senior software developers rely on the InfoQ community to keep ahead of the adoption curve. One of the main reasons software architects and engineers tell us they keep coming back to InfoQ is because they trust the information provided and selected by their peers.
We’ve been helping software development teams adopt new technologies and practices for over 15 years through InfoQ articles, news items, podcasts, tech talks, trends reports and QCon software development conferences. Join a community of senior software engineers, architects and team leads and never miss out on important trends.
Frequently asked questions
The event includes presentations including live Q&A with the speaker, followed by "Continue the Conversation", an informal AMA session.
InfoQ Live will feature sponsored Roundtables: live panel discussions between software practitioners where attendees can ask their own questions.
This is a dedicated space for attendees and speakers to Continue the Conversation after each session.
Please note that this session is unstructured and unfacilitated - it’s a space for you to engage naturally with our speakers - just as you might do after seeing a presentation at an in-person conference.
A Zoom meeting room will open when joining. Please join the Zoom room with your camera on and unmute yourself to talk. A member of the InfoQ Team will let you know when the next session is beginning.
Roundtable sessions are co-located, sponsored virtual events happening right after the InfoQ Live sessions. They are panel discussions between practitioners, led and designed by a practitioner moderator, with an opportunity for participants to ask questions.
Roundtables are free and open to all. Registration is required.
