Increasing Product Release Velocity by Debugging and Testing In Production

The focus on achieving sustainable and dramatic speed gains for businesses centers around enhancing product velocity by optimizing software delivery processes. This involves automating and simplifying processes, improving communication between developers and QA engineers, and utilizing tools like Ozcode's Production Debugger for real-time debugging and TestMu AI for comprehensive testing coverage. The webinar, hosted by Harshit Paul and Idan Shatz, addressed common roadblocks like difficulty in reproducing bugs, lack of automation, and communication gaps that hinder release velocity. Ozcode's solutions provide developers with insights to quickly resolve errors, thus shortening release cycles, while TestMu AI offers extensive browser compatibility testing. The session emphasized the importance of mirroring staging and production environments and leveraging automation to increase efficiency. Best practices were shared to boost release velocity, such as enhancing browser test coverage, closing communication gaps, and prioritizing bugs effectively. The webinar concluded with a Q&A session addressing questions on language compatibility and integration with existing testing frameworks.
