REST is definitely the main software architecture style followed when it comes to application-to-application communication. If you have already worked on any web application  you certainly had to either develop and provide an API or consume some service from third parties. Moreover decoupled architectures such as microservices have gained a lot of traction in the past years which just reinforces the importance of REST in the present days. 

No matter how big your application is, one thing that you should do is to ensure that your RESTful endpoints are always online and being continuously tested, specially because in some cases we are providing services to other parties that cannot be disrupted by outages or malfunction. Furthermore, the earlier you identify issues caused by code changes the easier is to have it fixed without having serious consequences.

There are no excuses for not automating your RESTful API tests anymore! No matter if you are a beginner or advanced user, during this hands-on workshop you will be able to follow a few steps and get your RESTful API test automated in 60 minutes, using Postman, Newman and Jenkins.

When it comes to software development, DevOps is one of the fundamental pillars to put Lean philosophy in practice.

In this presentation, I want to share 2 real case studies where CI&T, the company that I work at, received the special mission to evangelize Lean mindset across different companies with different cultures and processes.

I want to share the approach, challenges, technical solution and outcomes from this ongoing journey of cross polinization and continuous learning.

"That day, I was in a big hurry with a time limit ... I had my code done and everything was ready, except for the actual deployment. I had to run out of the door immediately. No choice. I made my mind to do the deploy while on the elevator. The result? Of course it was a success. Thanks to the lean approach, I was able to pursue the deploy with no hassle, with just a click of a button..."

DevOps is not only implementing a set of tools. DevOps is the combination of cultural philosophies, practices, and tools. When It comes to culture, transformation is a key concept and requires full engagement and buy-in from different levels of the organization.

In this presentation, I want to share some DevOps case studies and how we have been evolving DevOps culture over the last years. I will also talk about how DevOps culture is tied connected with Lean philosophy.
