Adventures in feature branch environments with CDK
A large part of a code base in serverless architecture is about infrastructure and integrations. While unit tests are needed for logic, the most important testing for infra and integrations is deploying them and actually executing them. A key to success, with a team, is an ability to deploy and test each PR in a reasonably isolated infra. I’ll be talking about lessons learned over 5 years of deploying every PR to a temporary “feature environment”.
Samppa Saarela is an experienced coding architect who likes to solve critical problems with his clients. In his free time, Samppa is interested in honing his circus skills – standing on his hands and on top of other people is just business as usual!
