QAOps is a term used in the context of DevOps to describe the integration of Quality Assurance (QA) operations into the Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipeline. It aims to break down silos between QA, developers, IT Ops, and other teams involved in the delivery pipeline. QAOps focuses on automating testing, parallel testing, scalability, and collaboration among teams to ensure efficient and effective software quality. Despite its relatively low usage compared to other DevOps terms, QAOps has helped draw attention to the importance of QA in the age of DevOps and emphasizes the need for automated software testing and QA in delivering high-quality applications.
