Leveraging Infrastructure as Code for Enhanced Testing, Automation, and Security

Short description

This submission highlights the pivotal role of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) in revolutionizing testing, test automation, and security practices.

By enabling consistent and reproducible environments, IaC facilitates streamlined testing processes, accelerates test automation, and bolsters security measures.

Emphasizing the benefits of automated provisioning, scalability, and version control, this discussion showcases how IaC optimizes testing efforts, fortifies security protocols, and enhances overall operational efficiency. Attendees will gain insights into leveraging IaC as a powerful tool for robust testing, seamless automation, and fortified security in the ever-evolving technological landscape.

Value for the audience:
After joining my presentation participants will understand the need for Infrastructure as Code.
How it helps speeding up creating test environments, how it avoids difficult to reproduce production issues and how it can help securing test environments
I will show it can help creating dedicated test environments for specific tests, such as test automation, performance testing and others.

Problems addressed:
Differences between test and production environments that lead to user problems and defects not found in testing.

Time lost finding configuration issues.

Too much time needed to setup test environments.
