Get 97% faster feedback with Smarter Testing by CircleCI

Fast feedback is the foundation of software delivery at scale. Long build and test cycles break developer focus, turning simple changes into momentum-killing pauses. Studies show that recovering from these interruptions can take twenty minutes or longer. Multiply that by dozens of commits per day and context‑switching time quickly turns into days of lost productivity.

End-to-End Testing for Microservices: A 2025 Guide

End-to-end testing has always been a double-edged sword - even more so in the world of microservices. On one hand, E2E tests are critical for validating that all services work together seamlessly in real user flows. On the other hand, many experts warn that heavy reliance on end-to-end testing in a microservices architecture can create a "distributed monolith," slowing down deployments and undermining the very agility microservices promise. There's truth to that: if done poorly, E2E tests can become brittle, flaky, and a bottleneck that reduces your deployment frequency.

Instrument Jenkins With OpenTelemetry

You can instrument Jenkins with OpenTelemetry using the official plugin and an OpenTelemetry Collector, then send the data to a backend like Last9 to understand where pipeline latency and failures actually originate. Jenkins provides job status and console logs, but it doesn't show how time is distributed across stages, agents, plugins, and external systems. OpenTelemetry fills that gap by emitting traces, metrics, and logs in a standard format that any OTLP-compatible backend can process.

(AusBiz) | How to Stay Secure in an AI-Driven Software World | The Last Call

In an era of AI-powered development, how do teams move fast and stay secure? JFrog SVP APAC, Sunny Rao, joined AusBiz’s The Last Call to break it down — from securing the software supply chain to why end-to-end visibility is now essential for every tech organization. Discover why this matters for the future of software and AI-driven innovation.

What Is Multivariate Testing? A Guide to Experimenting With Multiple Elements

A/B testing is great — but what if you want to optimize more than one thing at a time? That’s where multivariate testing (MVT) comes in. In this video, we break down how MVT works, why it gives you deeper insights than A/B testing, and how you can use it to test multiple page or app elements at once. You’ll learn how to run multivariate tests, when to use them over A/B tests, and how Harness makes this seamless inside your CI/CD pipeline.

Build a multi-agent AI system using CrewAI, Gemini, and CircleCI

Multi-agent AI systems are trending in the software development industry right now. These systems consist of a group of individual agents that collaborate to achieve a desired goal. They mimic real world teams and departments in how they are organized. In multi-agent AI systems, each agent is assigned a task that is required to achieve a final output.

How Bitbucket powers compliance and code quality at scale

Bitbucket Cloud is more than a code hosting platform. We’re an enterprise partner, helping teams code together at scale with security, compliance, and flexibility at every step. As part of the Atlassian Cloud platform serving more than 300,000 organizations around the world, we’re continuing to build the next generation of Bitbucket Cloud as your trusted cloud vendor, whether you’re a global bank, healthcare provider, or a fast-scaling tech company.

Reimagining software delivery with AI-powered workflows in Jira & Bitbucket

If you’re like most developers, you know that writing code isn’t the bottleneck anymore. AI has made it faster than ever, and chances are you’re already using it. Yet, delivering software is still complex because of everything else you have to manage: fixing vulnerabilities, reducing tech debt, cleaning up feature flags, ensuring test coverage, writing documentation, and the list goes on. That’s why we built Rovo Dev, a context-aware AI agent for developers.

Beyond Models: JFrog AI Catalog Evolves to Detect Shadow AI and Govern MCPs

When we first introduced the JFrog AI Catalog, it was our mission to provide the industry with a single system of record for governing the complex landscape of internal, open-source, and external commercial AI models. This foundational step was critical for enterprises to move from uncontrolled innovation to delivering AI with trust and confidence. However, the AI landscape is ever-evolving. The challenge for today’s enterprise is already evolving beyond simply managing a library of known models.

Securing Vibe Coding: JFrog Introduces AI-Generated Code Validation

A fundamental shift in software development is already here. Gartner predicts that by 2028, 75% of enterprise software engineers will use AI code assistants – a massive leap from less than 10% in early 2023. While this AI-driven speed creates a competitive advantage, it also opens a dangerous new front in the battle for software supply chain security.
