Agile Testing Devops Showcase Brochure 30-31 July 2020 22 June 30 & 31 July 2020, Online Time: 09:30 - 16:00 CEST | 08:30 - 15:00 BST | 13:00 - 19:30 IST www.unicom.co.uk 30 & 31 July 2020 Online Background Agile, Testing and DevOps: Are they a Separate conversation or a progression of capability? DevOps, Testing and Agile have shared environments that facilitate working together. Spurred by greater demand for excellence, these three methods are more than simply adopting new tools and processes. The synergy involves building an evolving and a stable Continuous Integration (CI) Infrastructure, as well as an automated pipeline that moves deliverables from development to production to meet users’ expectations. They can work together, and the entire build process should be transparent, and it should enable and support development and operations. This transformation depends on: significant changes in culture; roles and responsibilities; team structure; tools and processes. With the uncertainty over the complete lifting of the lockdown, at UNICOM, we have devised a virtual event of the previously published conference and have spread out the programme over two days of around four hours each day. Please see the detailed programme. Call for Participation We are inviting speakers – thought leaders, subject experts and start up entrepreneurs – to share their knowledge and enthusiasm about their work and their vision in the field of Agile, Testing and DevOps. We have listed some relevant topics in the “Background” section. These are suggestions only. Please suggest a topic that suits the day and your work. We understand that successful projects are written up as “White Papers”. Please share these with us. But projects that did not achieve their targets – “Black Papers” – are of interest to us too. They can be a very important topics of discussion / panels that you can present. Talk to us about both, we welcome your input. Please complete the speaker’s response form and submit a proposal to present at this event. Topics to be Covered üAgile frameworks provide guidance for efficient operational software üAdopt a “build-and-run” teams concept üAutomation and SAFe üAgile and DevOps – moving with flow based awareness üTesting: “Measure twice, cut once” üContinuous Testing – running tests at each stage of s/w delivery pipeline. üImprove DevOps with SAFe üAutomating for improved flow üThe agile release train and continuous integration üScrum board Gamification üModern Software Testing üSustainable Test Automation üMob Programming üTeam leadership üIndividuals and interactions over process and tools üWorking software over comprehensive documentation üCustomer collaboration over contract negotiation üResponding to change over following a plan…… have been achieved and helped establishing a faster and practical way of getting things done. www.unicom.co.uk 30 & 31 July 2020 Online Programme Programme Under Development CONFERENCE CHAIR: JONATHON WRIGHT, DIGITAL ASSURED DAY ONE - 30 JULY SESSION I 09:30 UNICOM’S INTRODUCTION AND WELCOME 09:35 CONFERENCE CHAIR’S SCENE SETTING, JONATHON WRIGHT, DIGITAL ASSURED 09:40 A TOUCH OF THE WILD: AVOID COMMODIFICATION RETURNING TO BASICS Dave Snowden, Chief Scientific Officer, Cognitive Edge 10:25 SHORT DISCUSSION 10:30 ESSENTIAL FRAMEWORKS FOR AGILE & DEVOPS MATURITY Dr Shankar Ramamoorthy, Head of Industry Interface, CMR Institute of Technology, India Navratna ( 9 jewels ) of Agile Framework is first of its kind to assess organizations on Agile Maturity as there is no assessment framework like ISO/CMMI to assess Agile in the market.

Even though nowhere it mentions IT, most people relate it just to software development. Because of its origin. Let’s discover how way broader the applicability is of this lightweight yet very powerful framework. 13:45 SHORT DISCUSSION 13:50 BREAK AND SPONSORS’ EXHIBITION VIEWING 14:10 LIVING DOCUMENTATION – THE POT OF GOLD AT THE END OF THE BDD RAINBOW Seb Rose, BDD Advocate, SmartBear Living Documentation is documentation that automatically notifies the team when it’s out-of-date or incorrect. And it comes for free when you follow the Behaviour-Driven Development (BDD) approach. In this session we’ll explore what BDD is, the complementary relationship between BDD and Test Automation, and why every team should aspire to having Living Documentation. Disclaimer - no pixies, faeries, elves, or unicorns were used in the making of this presentation. 14:30 SHORT DISCUSSION 14:35 SHIFT RIGHT TESTING – DIGITAL TWIN, DARK CANARY & CONTACT TRACING Jonathon Wright, CTO and Co-founder, Digital Assured Shift Right testing means harnessing the power of analytics and autonomics to dynamically learn from the real world. Digital Experiences (DX) need to be extremely resilient in the face of unpredictable failure modes, work across a variety of endpoints, and process huge amounts of unstructured data. While continuous testing implementations help to address agility need, automation is typically driven by static rules using conventional scripting and orchestration techniques. Such techniques incur high maintenance overhead to keep updated relative to changing circumstances. The recent emergence of predictive analytics and cognitive engineering technologies (such as Dark Launching & Chaos Engineering) have opened the possibility to drive adaptive automation within testing to self-heal and self-configure based on changing situations in the real world. 14:55 SHORT DISCUSSION 15:00 - 15:40 DISCUSSION WITH QUESTIONS FROM SLI.DO.

  • Chapter Six Epilogue
    CHAPTER SIX EPILOGUE 230 Shivaji fought Mughals in the north and Bijapuri Sultans in the south and carved out an independent kingdom of his own out of his small Jagir of Poona. He had rare gifted qualities of winning the heart of common people, who became the basis of his Swarajya i.e., kingdom. He was a great military genius and a diplomat and above all a man of creative ability. He coronated himself on the 6th June, 1674 and declared to the world that he became independent sovereign ruler. He also declared to the world that he was no longer a jahagirdar but an independent sovereign ruler. Shivaji also founded his own administrative institutions such as Ashta Pradhan Mandal'*', a new system of military and civil administration etc. This system was based on regular payment to the officers and soldiers. They were also not hereditary. They continued in their respective position as long as they carried on their duties well. He discontinued the practice of giving lands, jagirs, saranjams to the officers including his ministers. His ministers were advisers, and remained in their offices as long as they enjoyed his confidence. The function of Shivaji*s council was merely advisory. All decision-making authority finally rested in him. Chhatrapati represented sovereign power both in theory and practice. Thus in Shivaji's time Chhatrapati was the fountain of final authority and of all sources of power. After the death of Chhatrapati Shivaji on 5th April 1680, 231 Shivaji's elder son Sambhaji became Chhatrapati in the circumstances of stresses and strains.

  • Pradhan Ancestor [Tue, 24 Nov 2015]
    Articles Pradhan 2 | Next | Section Menu | Main Menu | Pradhan From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Pradhan (Devanagari: धान) is a ministerial title used in regions of Hindu cultural tradition that equates to the more popular term Vizier in rank and function.[1][2] The Sanskrit pradhan translates to "major" or "prime";[3] however, the more modern Hindi definitions provided by the Oxford Hindi-English Dictionary also include "chief" and "leader".[4] The precise interpretation can differ significantly by region. The style was abandoned by many Indian princely states during the Mughal era in favor of Persian styles such as Wasir and Diwan. Pradhan is also commonly employed as a high-caste surname in the Newāh/Newār (Newar: नेवा) community of Nepal and is also currently used by the Kshatriya and Kayastha people of northern and western India. It is a surname used by Khandayat and Bhanayat (or Kshatriya) castes of eastern Indian state of Orissa. "Khanda" means sword and "Ayata" means control, hence "Khandayat" means "the master of sword" and same as Bhanayat which means the worshiper and having a control of Bow and Arrow, a powerful and most honored warrior castes. Examples[edit] Pradhan Mantri: Prime Minister (Mantri is the root of Mandarin). Pradhan Senadhipati: Chief of Staff ("Senadhipati" is an old Sanskrit style for a military leader, also used in Nepal for Commander-in-Chief). Pradhan Senapati: Grand General (also translated as Chief of 3 Staff). Pradhan was the title of a Minister who sat on the Council of 8 (Ashta Pradhan) in the early Maratha Empire prior to Peshwa administration.

  • BA Semester VI- Maratha History 1707-1818 AD (HISKB 602) Dr. Mukesh
    BA Semester VI- Maratha History 1707-1818 AD (HISKB 602) Dr. Mukesh Kumar (Department of History) KMC Language University Lucknow, U.P.-226013 UNIT-I Chhatrapati Shahu- Chhatrapati Shahu Maharaj also known as Rajarshi Shahu was considered a true democrat and social reformer. First Maharaja of the princely state of Kolhapur, he was an invaluable gem in the history of Maharashtra. Greatly influenced by the contributions of social reformer Jyotiba Phule, Shahu Maharaj was an ideal leader and able ruler who was associated with many progressive and path breaking activities during his rule. From his coronation in 1894 till his demise in 1922, he worked tirelessly for the cause of the lower caste subjects in his state. Primary education to all regardless of caste and creed was one of his most significant priorities. He was born Yeshwantrao in the Ghatge family in Kagal village of the Kolhapur district as Yeshwantrao Ghatge to Jaisingrao and Radhabai in June 26, 1874. Jaisingrao Ghatge was the village chief, while his wife Radhabhai hailed from the royal family of Mudhol. Young Yeshwantrao lost his mother when he was only three. His education was supervised by his father till he was 10-year-old. In that year, he was adopted by Queen Anandibai, widow of Kingh Shivaji IV, of the princely state of Kolhapur. Although the adoption rules of the time dictated that the child must have Bhosale dynasty blood in his vein, Yeshwantrao’s family background presented a unique case. He completed his formal education at the Rajkumar College in Rajkot and took lessons of administrative affairs from Sir Stuart Fraser, a representative of the Indian Civil Services.
