Keeping the Development Life Cycle from Going off Track
In this chapter, we will look at anti-patterns related to areas such as development process, governance, and DevOps. We will start by tackling a few significant process-level anti-patterns and then move on to one that deals with DevOps and packaging. Finally, we will tackle a common and very unfortunate anti-pattern related to testing. At the end of the chapter, we will summarize the key takeaways for real life and the CTA Review Board.
