Title:
Integrating Low-Code Solutions with Automated Testing and CI Practices

Description

Overview:
The integration of low-code solutions with existing automated testing and continuous integration (CI) practices is essential in the evolving landscape of software development. The "no cliffs" extensibility model ensures seamless integration, supporting both low-code-only and code-first deployment models.

Details:

• The no cliffs extensibility model bridges the gap between low-code and traditional code-first development, leveraging existing investments in automated testing and CI.
• It allows for seamless transitions between low-code and code-first approaches, ensuring consistent quality and reliability.
• The model supports a range of deployment models, offering flexibility and scalability.
• It enables code-first development teams to contribute their expertise to low-code practices, fostering collaboration and enhancing the overall development environment.

Key Questions

1. How does the no cliffs extensibility model support seamless integration between low-code and code-first development?
2. What are the benefits of integrating existing automated testing and CI practices into low-code environments?
3. How can organizations leverage the skills of code-first development teams to scale low-code practices?
