Someone asked me today about books I recommend that he can give to incoming people. So thought I’d share here (in no particular order) 1/n
Accelerate: The Science of Lean Software and DevOps: Building and Scaling High Performing Technology Organizations - @nicolefv @jezhumble @RealGeneKim have changed my world with the State of DevOps Report, and this book is no exception as it dives into the science behind it.
Explore It!: Reduce Risk and Increase Confidence with Exploratory Testing - by @testobsessed. Pssssst. This book is not just for testers. My favorite method? 🍐 🍐
Agile Testing: A Practical Guide for Testers and Agile Teams by @lisacrispin and @janetgregoryca - two incredible humans I’d give my right foot to. Also their book More Agile Testing. But for real, this book is critical for TEAMS. (Also not just for testers).
Continuous Delivery: Reliable Software Releases through Build, Test, and Deployment Automation (Addison-Wesley Signature Series (Fowler)) by @jezhumble and David Farley - great info in here. Lots of confirmation to my thinking, and highlights the importance of testing in CD.
The DevOps Handbook: How to Create World-Class Agility, Reliability, and Security in Technology Organizations by @RealGeneKim @jezhumble Patrick Debois and John Willis. A quick read. But I need more lady authors. So, the next one:
A Practical Guide to Testing In DevOps by @katrina_tester - she’s brilliant, and I love her examples throughout the book.
That said. It’s vacation time. I’m reading Outlander and Handmaids Tale and nothing I need to do my job 😂
