Question

Find an article on the Internet about a software deployment problem that happened in the last year. 2.Create an MS Word document and write up a brief (2 paragraph) summary of what happened and the link to the article. Include in your summary who the problem impacted and how it impacted them?

Answer 1

Issue: The correct code is deployed for testing, the code published to production is the same that was tested in pre-production, the actual publishing mechanism works, and there is adequate capacity in the load generation tool to achieve desired load. Not only this but there are many problems which are encountered during the deployment.

Causes:

• Not enough testing time.
• Not enough time to resolve findings
• Poorly defined success criteria
• Inadequate test setup
• Inability to verify responses
• Failing to observe performance test results

The problem occured due to Miscommunication in development teams which leaded to poorly made products that don’t meet stakeholder expectations or customer needs. Misunderstanding among teams can also lead to missed deadlines and feature requests. Due to this stackeholder suggested some changes in standards and requirements.

In this situation the development team faces the lack of time problem. Unrealistic timelines are another major issue now. As we all know projects need adequate time to build. If given an insufficient amount of time to test, major software issues will likely occur. While clients might be looking for a completed project as soon as possible, project managers must take a realistic approach to the time required to complete a project request and request deadline extensions whenever necessary. Here the suggested changes are more and time is less so automatically the efficiency will be decreased. The development team along with the operational team collaboratively worked for the project and tried to get effective one. But overly aggressive timelines often result in sub-par software testing. Yet testing must be a part of the development process. Here the case is finally the code for testing is ready but the adequate load problem raised which intended to faliure of software.

Here, The suffered ones are stackholders and organisation(both development and operation team). The impact of the problem is loss of economy, lack of achieving commitments, time loss and damage of name of the organisation.

Note: As per the rules no documents should be provided so please go through this and copy paste the content provided in the word document.
