Tony Kelly hosts our latest episode of Continuous Delivery Office Hours, with Bob Walker and Steve Fenton.
In this episode of Continuous Delivery Office Hours, we ponder how you know whether your software is deployable so you can be confident you're meeting the Continuous Delivery (CD) principle of being deployable at all times.
To ensure software is deployable, teams must shift from manual testing to automated pipelines. Automation provides immediate feedback, captures institutional knowledge, and reduces long-term costs. Strategies like the Strangler Pattern help modernize legacy code for greater reliability.
