Shift Left Testing for Continuous Collaboration

Testing has become an integral part of the Drupal development process, but it's frequently centered around technical aspects and is only implemented toward the end of the project.

Shift left testing is the process of moving the testing phase left of its usual position in the delivery pipeline so that it occurs as close as possible to the build process. By proactively testing integrations early and often, you can isolate most defects sooner for faster remediation, resulting in more efficient projects that are higher quality.

In this session I will distill the key facets of  the sales process into a framework that any freelancer or small agency can use to help organize their business development efforts, and be more successful at that effort.

If that sounds like your last Drupal build, this session is for you.  If you are involved in software development, chances are you’ve been involved in a [email protected] project where delivery dates slip, budgets are blown, and stress becomes unmanageable.
