What is really DevOps?
There are many definitions for DevOps, the most simple one can be a unique team able to develop and to operate in a continuous way, supported by a tool chain enabling automatically code integration, test and deployment in a single pipeline, where the code, after several approval steps, is released into production. In this post, I will try to share my definition and will share some personal considerations about the implications of decide for organize your team and development process
Why Agile test planning makes software quality superior than in Waterfall
When comparing the frequency and granularity of test planning and execution in products developed under Waterfall and Agile methods, we observed that in Agile: we have more tests, in the story level and we have a progressive increment of test coverage all over the product and higher frequency running those tests.

We can do it all over hierarchy of requirements, since strategic levels until implementation ones. But essentially a good product planning should be done to slicing features maintaining product value and introducing complexity across the product development phases.
