Also using Azure DevOps and it is indeed very well structured. As for CI/CD differences: how many commits can actually affect code and infrastructure? I think this is part of the e…

I think this is a business trend unfortunately. Tools tackling the CI space wanted a piece of CD and then boom. Things became the same :)

Agree. I would definitely put any infrastructure thing on the CD side though, as it is longer indeed. You can test your software faster in CI using Docker compose. Something along …

Is this doing anything else than leveraging Docker multi layers caching?

We have a large Java monolith application. Builds ran for 30 minutes. Then we said let's only run the unit tests and critical smoke tests. The build time went down to 7 minutes ...…

What about splitting it in smaller parts? And apply the CI process to each module?

Agree. CI=3-7 minutes. CD can be 30-60 if needed.

Agree. Some faulty commits may go through. But then you strengthen your test suite to prevent similar issues to happen again, and so on.

> There's no need to as I mentioned that you're going to be hosting it somewhere during development anyway. You will probably host 1 version which is infrastructure heavy and not v…

nock will intercept http requests in the same node process it is used in. Here the test (and the mock) are in a different container and thus process. It won't catch them. Unless it…

I didn't know about dotmess. I'll check it out. Thanks for the tip.

What tests are which kind depend on your use case. And is an infinite debate. I don't really care how you call them :)

I've updated the sentence with "Here are the common objections one might have and a tentative solution" and extended the conclusion to say "TBD is not the only way to work"

Ok thanks. Won't post articles as Show HN in the future.

Agree that feature flags count should not explode because you can never test all combinations. Feature toggles should drive the life span of a feature from start of development to …

Fair enough. You have a valid point on "your objections are not valid" is not the right tone. I'll edit to highlight that feature branches have their benefits in some cases. Thanks…

Not sure how the title is provocative? Even less click baity. And is there a rule I am not aware of against submitting my own posts?

Flipt is an interesting concept! I've tracked you down on Twitter. Let's talk when you have time ;)

k8s is open source, which is a different setup: you can't just merge in anything that comes in. In commercial projects though, even with a large team, you should be able to trust a…

And now that I look at your question again: yes. If all 23 builds were green and one person merges, then it would trigger a build on the remaining 22. The thing being that you prob…
