DevOps Testing Services The Thought Frameworks Way!
Introduction
Seamless collaboration between development, test automation & operations teams is the key to achieve swift, continuous development & deployment. DevOps technology brings in the much-needed cultural shift across teams, improves quality, increases the response rate of the ever-evolving business changes. It also creates the right environment for the growth of software development engineers in testing.
Definition
DevOps is a set of testing practices that includes software development and IT Operations with an aim to shorten the Software Development Life Cycle by providing continuous delivery of high-quality software
Significance
Importance of DevOps Continuous Testing Services
Continuous Testing in DevOps
The cornerstone for continuous DevOps testing services is testing the software at every stage of its development life cycle. This helps in evaluating the quality of the software in every step and makes way for continuous integration (CI) and continuous delivery (CD). Agile Methodology complements this, Thought Frameworks approaches and follows the best business practices by integrating testing into Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery(CD) in DevOps pipeline.

Advantages
The After Effects of Continuous Testing in DevOps Services
- Provides Sustained Risk Analysis
- Cuts down the feedback cycle
- Broader Test Coverage
- Delivering High-Quality Product
- Faster Software Delivery
- Easy Integration with DevOps Process
Repercussion
What happens when you don't do DevOps Continuous Testing
In the traditional software development prototype, the requirement occupies the X-axis of the plan and delivery occupies the Y-axis. This placement will have a negative impact in terms of cost, time, and errors. For instance, a defect that is discovered and corrected once the software has entered production will cost a fortune as compared to it being identified in the requirement phase.

Microservices Architecture Testing:
The goal of the microservices architecture is to decentralise the development process by breaking down monolithic applications and releasing services separately and often.
The goal of the microservices architecture is to decentralize the development process by breaking down monolithic applications and releasing services separately and often.
All of these operations are included in Microservices Architecture Testing, but it requires a methodology to support it. DevOps being an exquisite fit for all the requirements that Microservices Architecture testing has to offer. It allows for experimentation and innovation where customer experience and delight are of prime importance.
Cloud Native Application Testing
A collection of small, independent and loosely coupled services are referred to as Cloud-native Application. The goal is to deliver business needs as per the end user’s expectation. Cloud Native Applications are built with a focus to achieve resiliency, agility and observability in mind. DevOps is a practice in which operations and development engineers collaborate throughout the lifespan of a project. DevOps processes entail continuous improvement, automation and involvement of cross-functional teams to align towards the business goals while being customer-centric.
Tools
DevOps Testing Tools
A support system for Continuous testing is achieved by including the DevOps tools throughout the CI/CD process to achieve seamless customer experience.

Approach
A Typical DevOps Testing Service Environment
A continuous & automated Testing process enables continuous & faster delivery of software.
Testing Spans every stage of the Software Development lifecycle (SDLC)
Employing different forms of testing in SDLC minimizes backing tracking of an already detected error.
Testing has now evolved to Shared Testing - this allows everyone to understand the impact significance behind each change.
