Code coverage measures the extent to which a software’s source code has been tested and validated. Learn how these tools can help you cover all the codebases.

Maintaining reliable Kubernetes systems is not easy for anyone, especially for team members with less in-depth knowledge of Kubernetes itself and the overall service environment. This blog, part 1 of 3 in the “8 SRE Best Practices to Help Developers Troubleshoot Kubernetes” series, outlines the key challenges SREs and developers face when they need to quickly troubleshoot and remediate issues in applications running on Kubernetes.

Collaboration is essential to running effective, learnings-filled retrospectives. FireHydrant’s new retrospective commenting makes it easier for teams to create accurate, thorough retros, together.

Releasing production-ready software is a complicated tangle of tools and processes lacking visibility, traceability, and consistency. This leads to custom integrations and human intervention, which create opportunities for mistakes, impede automation, and increase the likelihood of insecure software being released. JFrog’s release lifecycle management capabilities enable “release first” software supply chain (SSC) management, delivering trusted software faster.

Enterprises that want to improve the performance of their network often look into limiting access to bandwidth-hogs such as social media and video streaming applications. But for those that really need to gain efficient network, this won’t be enough. You need to keep track of bandwidth usage regularly. While there are many tools to help you check bandwidth usage on network, sometimes finding KPIs specific to your organization can be painstaking.

Preview environments are temporary environments where developers can test code changes before deploying them to production, also called ephemeral environments, they’re temporary and should be discarded after testing changes. Carrying out tests using accurate data is a major challenge when creating and destroying environments. Put differently, you need realistic data and traffic in the preview environment to reflect the performance of code changes in production.
