This is a repost from the JFrog dev.io blog site. When you’re new to an industry, you encounter a lot of new concepts. This can make it really difficult to get your feet underneath you on an unfamiliar landscape, especially for junior engineers. In this series, I’ll cover tools and terminology common to the DevOps space, plus the occasional newbie-friendly tutorial for emerging or established technologies. If you have a request or suggestion, let me know!
In our previous announcement for the removal of the Codefresh Docker registry, we presented a timeline of the migration phases along with the actions expected from our customers. One of the milestones in the migration process is the introduction of our new Image API along with several enhancements on the pipeline build step. We believe that these features deserve a dedicated explanation of why they are useful on their own (regardless of the registry removal).
As a team that does pure serverless, we place a lot of emphasis on fast deployments. Lately, though, as our codebase has gotten larger, and the number of interactions between the microservices has increased, we have come up against the classic problem of excessively long test execution times in our serverless continuous integration.
In this tutorial, we will look into how to integrate performance testing with k6 in your TeamCity build setup. k6 is a free and open-source performance testing tool for testing the performance of APIs, microservices and websites. TeamCity is a continuous integration and delivery server built by JetBrains.
Everyone knows it’s been a tough time for businesses. All flights, conferences and in-person meetings have been canceled. The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has even made us all stand apart from each other and, if anything, bump elbows only. Times are tough. For those of you in the software business, you know you’ve got it easier than some industries. You CAN work from home. You CAN continue developing. And you should, too.
