Agile Containerized Microservices
Lightweight, fast, disposable virtual environments
Set of isolated processes running on shared kernel
Efficient way for building, delivering, & running apps
Monolithic Applications Just-Enough Applications Containerized Apps
Minimal - Typically single process entities
Declarative - Built from layered Docker images
Immutable - Do exactly same thing from run to kill
• Small autonomous services that work together
• Self-contained process that provides a unique capability
• Loosely coupled service oriented architecture with bounded contexts
• Small independent processes communicating with each other using language-agnostic APIs
• Fined-grained independent services running in their own processes that are developed and deployed independently
• Suite of services running in their own process, exposing APIs, and doing one thing well (independently developed and deployable)
• Single app as a suite of small services, each running in its own process and communicating with lightweight mechanisms (HTTP APIs)

Agile Testing—Scaling Practices
43. Industry very slow in adopting agile testing model
Cost, difficulty, and territorialism are common issues
Developers must take initiative for disciplined testing
43
Technical BarriersOrganizational Barriers
Developers don’t want to test
· Infrequently committing code
· Committing broken code
· Failing to immediately fix builds
· Not writing automated tests
· Not ensuring 100% of tests pass
· Not running private builds
· Resorting to traditional testing
Resistance to change
· Fear of investment costs
· Fear of learning new skills
· Test group territorialism
· Organizational policy conflicts
· Overhead of maintaining CI
· Complexity and scaling
· Not developing a quality culture

Agile Testing—Common Barriers
44. Agile test use is low in spite of its age, i.e., 15 years
Many do not understand its utter simplicity and power
Failure to use agile testing undermines project success

48. Key Agile SCALING POINTERS
One must think and act small to accomplish big things
Slow down to speed up, speed up ‘til wheels come off
Scaling up lowers productivity, quality, & business value
