Mark Tomlinson Performance Engineering & Observability

In this episode, we talk about observability from a performance engineering perspective. We talk about how this new emphasis on observability is a game changer for performance engineering, typically once viewed as a solo activity, but not something that benefits the whole team. Some good quotes: "the whole, the whole rationale for investing in observability practices, changing your language, changing your approach is to affect the future" "Information is no good if it's just between you and me, we fix the problem and we never talk about it again." "So for me it's the collaboration and the sharing is the biggest part that changes for me." Mark Tomlinson is a performance engineering and software testing consultant. His career began in 1992 with a comprehensive two-year test for a life-critical transportation system, a project which captured his interest in software testing, quality assurance, and test automation. After extended work at Microsoft and Hewlett-Packard, he has amassed broad experiences with real-world scenario testing of large and complex systems and is regarded as a leading expert in software testing automation with a specific emphasis on performance. As “The Performance Sherpa” Mark now offers coaching, training and consulting to help customers adopt modern performance testing and engineering strategies, practices and behaviours for better performing technology systems.

Episode 14: Beth Skurrie on PACT, Heuristics and Perfectionism

We continue our conversation with Beth Skurrie co-founder of pactflow.io and all round awesome person. We continue talking about PACT applied, making conscious decisions around tool selection and keeping tech relevant. Some 'more' Bethesque quotes "end to end test are the wrong type of tests to check low level, request and response fields" "what it does is it gives us the right tool at the right level to test the right thing" "It's not dictator driven contracts" it's not a tool is good or a bad tool. Different tools are appropriate in different situations and a tool that might be a good tool in one situation is a bad tool in another situation." Follow Beth on @bethesque
