Testing and QA are critical components of any DevOps workflow, yet many organizations fail to prioritize them, leading to buggy software, user dissatisfaction, and lost revenue. In the world of DevOps, where software development and operations are closely integrated, testing and QA are critical components of the development process. Neglecting these aspects can lead to various issues that can have serious consequences for software development projects. Let’s explore some potential pitfalls of neglecting testing and QA in DevOps, and propose solutions to address them:
- Increased software defects
- Deployment failures
- Security vulnerabilities
- Lack of documentation
- Inadequate test coverage
- Lack of continuous improvement
Let us check these pitfalls in detail.
