In 2011, all first-class one ounce stamps became forever stamps with the exception of stamps in coils of 500, 3,000, and 10,000. As the name suggests, Forever Stamps can be used to mail a one-ounce letter regardless of when the stamps are purchased or used and no matter how prices may change in the future.
Testing in production is an important core competency for any world-class test team to cultivate. In this post we will give you some practical tips to make testing in production an achievable reality â and to mitigate the obvious risks that it exposes.
Make sure that testing environments resemble production systems to the greatest extent possible. The greater the differences between the test environment and the production environment, the less effective the test environment becomes at predicting what will happen in production. Automate testing. For important components use automated testing methods, either with continuous integration systems or by some other means, to ensure that most routine testing is ongoing and does not require active developer initiative.
