DevOps: An Approach That Changed The Face Of Test Environment Management

DevOps: An Approach That Changed The Face
Of Test Environment Management
Software development has always been a real challenge and will always remain
one in the coming days. Despite the effective test environment management
tools, there was a lack of communication between developers and personnel
managing the operations. Technically because of the approach to keep
development and operations in a different environment.
It was when Agile came into the picture and software picked up a faster pace,
Development and operations were made to coordinate together with the
DevOps approach.
What makes DevOps special?
DevOps is intended to integrate development, quality assurance and operations
together in the flow of a single process. The merger is intended to coordinate
with the speed of Agile.

DevOps is more of a culture. A culture that needs to be adapted effectively by
the entire team because the whole approach of DevOps is intended to manage
the teamwork. DevOps depends for its success on the team.
The affiliation with the tools
DevOps like any other process follows a set of the cycle starting from planning,
development, testing deployment, release to monitoring the output. The cycle
needs to run in coordination, which can be achieved if we duly implement the IT
test environment management tools.
The tools are present to manage the stages involved in the process of software
development. For example, some tools are designed to manage continuous
delivery workflow, assisting the QA team with the scripts. While some are there
to present visual analytics and automate application development.
Evolving benefits of DevOps
The concept of DevOps says that it focuses on enhancing the technical, company
and environmental aspects of software development.
Improved workflow and software quality
Continuous delivery is a vital approach followed by DevOps. Over and above
which improvements have been witnessed in the speed of feedback. The
developers here have the upper hand. With the integration of DevOps, they can
now treat the bugs in the initial stage itself.
From the business perspective
The team can address the problems of the customer better with a workflow
dedicated to solving customer queries. In the long run, it helps to establish a

trusted relationship between business and the customers.
Thus, the DevOps approach is intended to improve the delivery pipeline and
integrate the activities. This aspect changes the way automation tools worked,
the involvement of different activities changes the functions of the tools as well.
