Testing
Feature flags without proper testing are a reliability risk. LaunchDarkly lets you ship code faster, but if your flag logic, targeting rules, or SDK integrations aren't validated, a bad flag evaluation can silently break production for a subset of users. This guide covers proven strategies for testing LaunchDarkly

Flagsmith is an open-source feature flag and remote configuration platform supporting both cloud and self-hosted deployments. Testing Flagsmith integrations well means covering the SDK initialization, flag evaluation, identity trait propagation, and remote config retrieval — at every layer of your test pyramid. This guide walks through concrete patterns for each. Flagsmith&
Security Testing
Software supply chain attacks have become one of the most effective attack vectors in modern software. SolarWinds compromised 18,000 organizations through a single tampered build. XZ Utils nearly backdoored OpenSSH in half the Linux servers on the internet. The pattern is consistent: attackers don't attack your software
Security Testing
Container image signing closes a critical gap in software supply chain security: verifying that the image running in production is exactly the image your CI pipeline built — and nothing else. Sigstore and its Cosign tool make this practical, with keyless signing that eliminates the burden of managing long-lived private keys.
Testing
Every system call a container makes is an attack surface. seccomp (Secure Computing Mode) lets you define exactly which syscalls a container is allowed to make — and kill or log anything outside that list. The challenge is writing profiles that are tight enough to restrict attacker behavior but permissive enough
Test Reporting
Serenity BDD bridges the gap between automated tests and documentation. Instead of test results that only engineers can read, Serenity generates living documentation — narrative reports that describe what the system does in business language, backed by evidence from actual test runs. What Is Serenity BDD? Serenity BDD (formerly Thucydides) is
Security Testing
A Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) is the foundation of modern supply chain security. Without knowing exactly what components your software contains, you cannot know what vulnerabilities you carry. Syft generates SBOMs; Grype scans them for vulnerabilities. Together they form a practical SBOM testing workflow that fits into any CI
Test Reporting
At a certain scale, spreadsheets and CI artifact tabs break down as test reporting solutions. When dozens of QA engineers run thousands of tests daily across multiple projects, you need a dedicated test reporting platform. ReportPortal is the open-source answer to that problem. What Is ReportPortal? ReportPortal is a self-hosted
Testing
Pod Security Standards (PSS) replaced PodSecurityPolicy (PSP) in Kubernetes 1.25. They define three security levels for pods — Privileged, Baseline, and Restricted — and the Pod Security Admission (PSA) controller enforces them at the namespace level. But "enforces" only works if you actually test that your manifests comply. This
Test Reporting
Plain Mocha test output gets the job done in local development, but in CI environments and for team review, you need richer reporting. Mochawesome generates beautiful, interactive HTML reports with test details, timing, code snippets, and failure screenshots — all in a self-contained file you can share or archive. What Is
Testing
Runtime security is the last line of defense. If a container escapes, an attacker pivots laterally, or malware executes inside your cluster — Falco is what catches it. But Falco rules that go untested are rules that fail silently when it matters most. This guide covers how to write, validate, and
Background Jobs
Background job systems fail in complex ways. A job can run twice due to a retry. A downstream service can be slow, causing queue buildup. A crash during execution can leave data in an inconsistent state. Testing these scenarios requires specific patterns that go beyond simple pass/fail test cases.
