Deployments without fear: E2E testing for a Friday deployment
Mitigating the risks of deploying on Fridays
Friday deployments have always been feared by developers because of the risk of introducing bugs that affect the funcionallity of the aplication, resulting in a weekend of work.
Implementing E2E testing during development allows deployments to be done with grater confidence and security, but…
What are End-to-End (E2E) tests?
End-to-End tests are those that simulate the behaviour of the end user in an environment very similar to the real one. This verifies that all the components of the system work correctly as a whole.
Scope: These range from the user interface to the database, APIs, authentication and more. They ensure that all parts of the system are correctly integrated.
Benefits of E2E Testing in Frontend Projects
- Complete user coverage: Ensure that critical application flows work as expected, avoiding problems in the end-user experience.
- Early bug detection: Identifying problems early, before they reach production, minimising post-deployment surprises.
- Confidence in deployments: A robust E2E test suite allows teams to deploy with the peace of mind that essential application flows will not be affected.
- Better software quality.
- Long-term maintenance cost reduction.
Integrating E2E testing into the development lifecycle
- Agile development: Testing is integrated into each development iteration, allowing teams to validate new and existing functionality on an ongoing basis.
- CCI/CD Pipeline: Automating testing in the continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) chain ensures that every code change goes through a thorough quality check before being deployed.
- Fast feedback: Obtain test results quickly to facilitate the identification of problems without delaying the development cycle.
