The foundation of software development is rooted in the handling and preservation of data in compliance with the goals of the application. The core of any software program is the information stored in databases that is used for retrieval and manipulation. To ensure that the chosen database system (whether SQL or Non-SQL) is suitable for the needs of the application, it’s important to conduct tests to evaluate its capabilities.
In Parts 1 and 2, we looked at how you can build and maintain effective test suites. These steps are a key part of ensuring that application workflows function as expected. But how you run your tests is another important point to consider, so in this post, we’ll walk through best practices for executing your tests across every stage of development. Along the way, we’ll also look at how Datadog supports these practices for the applications that you are already monitoring.
