022 Latest trends in Software Feature Development: A/B Tests, Canary Releases, Feedback Loops

Summary: In Part II with Finn Lorbeer (@finnlorbeer) from Thoughtworks we discuss some of the new approaches when implementing new software features. How can we build the right thing the right way for our end users?<br>Feature development should start with UX wireframes to get feedback from end users before writing a single line of code. Feature teams then need to define and implement feedback loops to understand how features operate and are used in production. We also discuss the power of A/B testing and canary releases as it allows teams to “experiment” on new ideas and thanks to close feedback loops will quickly learn on how end users are accepting it. <br><br>*****Related Links:******<br><br>Process Automation and Continuous Delivery at OTTO.de<br><a href="https://dev.otto.de/2015/11/24/process-automation-and-continuous-delivery-at-otto-de/" rel="noopener">https://dev.otto.de/2015/11/24/process-automation-and-continuous-delivery-at-otto-de/</a><br><br>Are we only Test Manager?<br><a href="http://www.lor.beer/are-we-only-test-manager/" rel="noopener">http://www.lor.beer/are-we-only-test-manager/</a><br><br>Sind wir wirklich nur Testmanagerinnen?<br><a href="https://dev.otto.de/2016/06/08/sind-wir-wirklich-nur-testmanagerinnen/" rel="noopener">https://dev.otto.de/2016/06/08/sind-wir-wirklich-nur-testmanagerinnen/</a>
