Introduction to Embedding Usability Testing in DevSecOps Incorporating usability testing in DevSecOps ensures that applications are secure, functional, and accessible. Oftentimes, usability testing occurs at the end of the software development cycle, resulting in updates that fix overlooked issues. However, integrating usability testing into the CI/CD workflow ensures that HCD principles...
Introduction to Continuous Feedback Loops Oftentimes, CI/CD environments require rapid iterations that aim to promote efficiency and functionality. However, CI/CD workflows must continue to incorporate HCD through feedback loops during each iteration, specifically so user-centered feedback can be used to refine security and delivery processes. For instance, feedback from users can...
Introduction to Automating HCD HCD emphasizes technologies that align with user needs and preferences. CI/CD workflows often require rapid iteration cycles and constant demand for new features and functions. This makes it challenging for CI/CD workflows to integrate HCD principles into each cycle. However, automating HCD principles can seamlessly integrate HCD...
Introduction to HCD Providing a Seamless Transition with CI/CD CI/CD frameworks often lead to efficient and streamlined development processes, however, HCD ensures that end users are prioritized throughout each process. Furthermore, HCD provides improved usability and user satisfaction, while CI/CD frameworks often prioritize rapid integration and deployment. Therefore, there is often...
Introduction to HCD in Secure Continuous Integration CI/CD methodologies are at the core of modern software development practices. They allow developers to automate the build, test, and deployment processes. This allows for faster and more efficient software delivery. However, balancing secure integration practices and user satisfaction is often difficult. This is...
Introduction to DevSecOps and CI/CD DevSecOps stands for development, security, and operations and essentially represents the integration of security at each stage of the development cycle [1]. DevSecOps importantly addresses security concerns as they emerge, rather than at the end of software deployment when they are harder and more costly to fix...
