YOLO - Moving Straight to Production

This conference talk explores how to safely move code straight to production without extensive test environments. Learn how Rabobank's hundreds of squads deploy multiple times daily using a "ninja" approach rather than the risky "cowboy" method. Discover practical techniques to shorten testing cycles, reduce delivery time, enhance system reliability, and confidently release high-quality products in modern software development environments with autonomous teams, DevOps skillsets, and microservice architectures. The presentation contrasts this approach with traditional methods that rely on complex test data setups, multiple environments, and separate QA engineers that often create false confidence when deploying to production.
