Main Talk: Infrastructure as Code with test approach


Infrastructure as Code is the automation in the DevOps movement. It is about dynamic infrastructure as a software system, which means that development practices like TDD, BDD, CI, and CD would be used. In some cases, our development and operations teams are using tools such as CFEngine, Puppet, Chef, Ansible, Salt, etc. But not many are using them to their full potential and with test approach. This talk explains some of the core challenges of managing infrastructure and shares how do Test Driven Infrastructure in general terms. The talk walks through from definition of the usual problems managing infrastructures to implementation of infrastructure project with Ansible in order to build a change management pipeline to automatically test and release infrastructure projects. Attendees should come away with an understanding of how concepts such as Test Driven Development, Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery can be applied to infrastructure.
