Most teams have CI under control, but CD remains elusive. Flaky tests, slow feedback loops, and a lack of trust in automation force teams to rely on manual approvals and deployment delays. In this session, we’ll break down why test automation often fails to keep pace with engineering velocity—and how high-performing teams tackle stability, observability, and speed to unlock true Continuous Deployment.
