Rethinking AI's Role in Leadership, Governance, and Productivity

AI is reshaping development, but is it meeting expectations? In this episode of Test Case Scenario, Jason Baum and Marcus Merrell explore the evolving role of AI in software development, drawing insights from recent industry reports. They discuss whether AI tools are living up to their promise of reducing burnout and boosting productivity while examining the complexities of debugging, security risks, and governance gaps.

More AI, More Problems?

AI was supposed to be the game-changer for developer productivity, but reality isn’t living up to the hype. GPT-4 took 50x the resources of GPT-3.5, yet the improvement? Barely noticeable. AI-generated code isn’t saving time—it’s creating more debugging, security headaches, and compliance risks. The real issue? It’s not the AI—it’s how we’re using it. AI isn’t freeing up developers for innovation—it’s adding more noise. So, what’s the fix? Catch the full conversation on the latest Test Case Scenario.

Best practices for target-based triggers with Bitrise

If you've ever found yourself tangled up in the complexities of setting up CI/CD pipelines, you're familiar with the challenge of mapping code events with build triggers. At times, you may wish to initiate a few checks, while at other times, you prefer to execute several checks at once. It can be slow and, at times, frustrating to ensure that only those CI checks are triggered that are relevant to the code change. A better, more scalable approach? Target-based triggering.

Ep 2 - Processing Without Pause: Continuous Stream Processing and Apache Flink

We’re diving even deeper into the fundamentals of data streaming to explore stream processing—what it is, the best tools and frameworks, and its real-world applications. Our guests, Anna McDonald, Distinguished Technical Voice of the Customer at Confluent, and Abhishek Walia, Staff Customer Success Technical Architect at Confluent, break down what stream processing is, how it differs from batch processing, and why tools like Flink are game changers.

Announcing Kong GCP Cloud Gateways (Beta)

When speaking with platform teams who are responsible for setting up their organizations’ API platforms, we often hear: "We really want to offload the infra side of this. We don’t want our engineers spinning up their own locally hosted infrastructure or asking other infrastructure teams to do this.
