Konstantin Dinev on Multi-Team DevOps - Episode 157

In today’s episode, Jeffrey is joined by Konstantin Dinev, the Director Of Product Development at Infragistics, Product Lead for Ignite UI, co-organizer of ISTA Conference, and the founder of Bellum Gens.    In this conversation, Konstantin speaks about his role at Infragistics as the Director of Product Development and how he manages multiple teams that deliver multiple applications. He shares how he maintains his teams’ productivity while delivering consistent quality, the types of testing that they run, the DevOps environment standards they put in place, and the labels and work stages that he and his teams use depending on the product they are working on. It is a deeply fascinating conversation that developers will not want to miss!   Topics of Discussion: [:14] About The Azure DevOps Podcast, Clear Measure, and Jeffrey’s offer to speak at virtual user groups.

[12:37] From a leadership perspective, what were the trade-offs that Konstantin was thinking about when deciding to let each application team each have their own set of tools (instead of driving to standardization)? [14:08] What are the minimum DevOps environment standards that Konstantin puts in place? Are there a number of types of test suites? Are there certain steps where, regardless of the tool, Konstantine would want his team to take? [16:52] For UI tests or for tests that have to have the whole application loaded, what kind of experiences have Konstantin’s teams had with those test suites getting larger and larger? How long do those test suites take to run for them? [19:03] How did they get their time down for full system testing through the UI? [20:17] A word from The Azure DevOps Podcast’s sponsor: Clear Measure. [20:51] Konstantin speaks about their headless configuration and the scenarios that work with it. [23:00] Did they have to refactor a lot of tests to get them to run in parallel? [26:10] How to facilitate a discussion with upper management when it comes to writing automated test code vs. working on features. [29:00] The labels and work stages that Konstantin and his teams use depending on the product.

Continuous Integration Review - Episode 153

Continuous Integration Review - Episode 153

In today’s solo episode, join your host Jeffrey Palermo as he discusses continuous integration.   With the ease of setting up triggered builds on build servers (such as Azure Pipelines or GitHub actions), it can be easy to think that once the documentation of the product is followed, we are done — but that's not the case. The DevOps tools currently on the market have gotten really good at making some of the steps easy, but, there are other steps where it's still up to you to put them in place.    In light of this, Jeffrey provides listeners with an overview of continuous integration, its three major stages, and some of the rules of thumb that you need to follow to find success.   Whether you use Azure Pipelines or another tool, this episode will provide you with the information you need in order to make sure you have put everything in place that you need to.   Topics of Discussion: [:14] About The Azure DevOps Podcast, Clear Measure, the new podcast Architect Tips, and Jeffrey’s offer to speak at virtual user groups. [1:30] About today’s solo episode. [2:46] The dichotomy of quality and productivity, and the dynamic of ‘technical debt.’ [7:21] What happens when continuous integration is actually followed (and the benefits that result from it). [7:59] An overview of the three stages of continuous integration: the private build, the integration build, and the first deployment. [9:20] An overview of the first stage: the private build. [12:17] A word from The Azure DevOps Podcast’s sponsor: Clear Measure. [12:48] The second stage (or phase) of continuous integration: the integration build. [15:24] The third stage: the first deployment. [19:30] A review of the three stages of continuous integration and the three most important questions to answer. [20:47] What the ‘commit phase’ is.
