SCOPE AND TOPICS
DevOps extends the agile development principles to include the full
stack of software services, from design to execution, enabling and
promoting collaboration of operations, quality assurance, and
development engineers throughout the entire service lifecycle.
Ultimately, DevOps is a process that enables faster releases of a better
product to the end user. DevOps encompasses a set of values, principles,
methods, practices, and tools, to accelerate software delivery to the
customer by means of infrastructure as code, continuous integration and
deployment, automated testing and monitoring, or new architectural
styles such as microservices. In the end all common software engineering
activities, organizational forms and processes have to be questioned,
adapted and extended to ensure continuous and unobstructed software
development, this is the aim of continuous software engineering
(CSE)research. Current software engineering research mainly deals with
the development aspects of DevOps and CSE, focusing on development
methods, practices, and tools, leaving the quality assurance aspects of
DevOps behind.
Even though development practices such as testing (at all levels) are
instrumental in producing quality software, they mostly deal with the
functional correctness, while quality assurance deals with a more
broadly defined concept of quality, of which functional correctness is
just one dimension. However, DevOps needs methods and tools that enable
systematic assessment, prediction, and management of software quality in
other dimensions as well, including performance, reliability, safety,
survivability, or cost of ownership.
The QUDOS workshop provides a forum for experts from academia and
industry to present and discuss novel quality-aware methods, practices
and tools for DevOps. On the other hand, the goal of the CSE workshop is
to present and discuss innovative solutions, ideas and experiences in
the area of continuity along the entire software engineering lifecycle
hence, Continuous Software Engineering.
For the first time, CSE and QUDOS join forces to foster
cross-fertilization and bootstrap an even bigger, stronger community
around the urgently emerging topics they are both addressing from
different angles. Especially industry practitioners are invited to join
this community and present challenges, solutions and lessons learned
from real and complex projects.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Foundations: DevOps Engineering & Quality Assurance Methodologies;
integration with lifecycle management; automated tool chains; patterns &
smells;
* Architecture: Scalability and capacity planning; scale-out architectures;
cloud-native application design; microservice-based architectures;
model-driven architectures; architecture evolution and erosion
* Development and Tooling: Software models and requirements in early
software development phases; automatic functional and non-functional
testing; languages, annotations and profiles for quality assurance;
analysis, verification and prediction; optimization-based architecture
design; Infrastructure-as-Code
* Operation and Maintenance: Application performance monitoring;
model-driven
performance measurement and benchmarking; feedback-based quality
assurance; capacity planning and forecasting; performance anti-pattern
detection; traceability and versioning; trace and log analysis; software
regression and testing; security and privacy; software health and
self-healing; containerization and immutable infrastructure
* Continuous X: Continuous delivery and Continuous experimentation;
deployment pipelines, canary releases and partial rollouts; A/B testing;
performance and scalability testing via shadow launches
* Applications and Experiences: Case Studies in cloud computing, Big
Data, and IoT/Edge Computing; standardization and interoperability;
novel application domains, etc.
* All other topics related to quality in DevOps and agile service
delivery models
