The Real-World Impact of Shift-Left
Manage episode 417147522 series 3456234
To shift or not to shift – that is the question.
If you’ve been around the software development world lately, you’ve likely heard of shift-left – the practice of integrating testing, security, and operations early in the software development lifecycle to detect issues early.
This approach is meant to be a win-win-win – saving time, money, and headaches. But is it as great in practice as it sounds in theory? In this episode, we debate the real-world benefits of shift-left and get to the heart of the issue: testing well.
Join us as we discuss:
01:15 Defining shift-left
02:00 Disadvantages of shift-left
05:50 Advantages of shift-left
06:50 Continuous testing
08:00 No-shift testing
11:00 The purpose of testing
13:00 Platform engineering
14:45 The answer to the testing debate
