This article has reduced the argument for staging, calling it unnecessary. Its upto the devops to use staging effectively. It you have a waterflow like deployment and useless e2e tests running in staging, then it wont be helpful. Instead, if you use staging as another prod (Blue Green deployment cough cough.. ) then, it would be a lot more useful.
Than blaming staging env as a whole, I would blame archaic devops practices for SaaS.

- partyboat1586 6y agoAre you saying e2e tests are useless or they are useless in staging because it doesn't reflect prod?
- ai_ja_nai 6y agoe2e tests tend to be very brittle and not that informative
- partyboat1586 6y agoI agree they are brittle but why are they not informative? They usually catch edge case bugs in situations I wouldn't have time to manually test.
