Many organizations nowadays work in an Agile way. In the first wave, this means a new way of working that focusses on changing current processes, like Scrum and Kanban. When this new method is adopted, the technique follows. Here, we strive for \u201cContinuous Delivery<\/a><\/strong>\u201d, this means that you can deploy software to production at any given moment. To achieve this, we need to automate many of the manual steps. A common challenge is the automation of tests. However, this is a crucial part on the road to Continuous Delivery. DevOn helps organizations to set up and implement a test approach focused on Test Automation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][mk_fancy_title color=”#ff5000″ size=”30″ force_font_size=”true” size_smallscreen=”20″ size_tablet=”20″ size_phone=”20″ font_weight=”400″ txt_transform=”uppercase” margin_bottom=”4″ font_family=”Josefin+Sans” font_type=”google”]\n

By automating the tests, a team is able to receive feedback at any time in the process, so they can see if new code changes have introduced any new bugs. This allows the team to deliver software much faster than when they were repeatedly running the tests manually. In addition to speed of delivery, the automated tests also ensure higher quality and a more reliable and stable product for the end users.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][mk_fancy_title color=”#ff5000″ size=”30″ force_font_size=”true” size_smallscreen=”20″ size_tablet=”20″ size_phone=”20″ font_weight=”400″ txt_transform=”uppercase” margin_bottom=”4″ font_family=”Josefin+Sans” font_type=”google”]\n

How?<\/span><\/h3>\n[\/mk_fancy_title][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1545127953633{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n

By automating your tests, you increase the quality of the product, receive feedback faster, spend less time on \u201ceasy\u201d tasks and you are able to focus entirely on mitigating risks and developing the best product.<\/p>\n

That is why we fully support the fact that time spent on Test Automation is time well spent.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][mk_padding_divider size=”10″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][mk_fancy_title tag_name=”span” color=”#ff5000″ size=”30″ force_font_size=”true” size_smallscreen=”20″ size_tablet=”20″ size_phone=”20″ font_weight=”400″ txt_transform=”uppercase” font_family=”Josefin+Sans” font_type=”google”]Whitepaper<\/span>[\/mk_fancy_title][mk_image src=”https:\/\/old.devon.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/devon-bottom-up-testautomation-background_751d71dc5189f2eeea51435b46456367.jpg” image_size=”full” link=”https:\/\/old.devon.nl\/en\/whitepaper-continuous-delivery-in-90-days\/” target=”_blank” align=”center”][mk_button dimension=”flat” corner_style=”rounded” size=”medium” url=”https:\/\/old.devon.nl\/en\/whitepaper-continuous-delivery-in-90-days\/” target=”_blank” fullwidth=”true” bg_color=”#ff5000″]DOWNLOAD[\/mk_button][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][mk_page_section bg_color=”#e0e0e0″ sidebar=”sidebar-1″][vc_column][mk_padding_divider size=”10″][mk_fancy_title tag_name=”span” color=”#000000″ size=”30″ force_font_size=”true” size_smallscreen=”20″ size_tablet=”20″ size_phone=”20″ font_weight=”300″ margin_top=”20″ margin_bottom=”0″ font_family=”Josefin+Sans” font_type=”google”]\n
