What you'll learn

Developers are under increasing pressure to build and ship games quickly and then add new features consistently to boost user engagement and grow competitive advantage. Moving fast always comes with risks but since moving slow isn’t a popular option, how can development teams ship code with speed whilst strategically managing the risks? 

Progressive delivery is a modern way of developing, testing, and deploying code, which allows development teams to make data-driven decisions throughout the software delivery lifecycle, from pre-production to production. Watch this session from James Smith, SVP of the Bugsnag Product Group at SmartBear, to learn how game development teams should be thinking about progressive delivery:

  • Approaches for managing risks introduced by shipping new game versions faster, such as release progression or phased rollout, feature flags, and experiments
  • Control mechanisms that can help boost confidence when shipping faster
  • Monitoring and stability metrics that can serve as the data-driven layer throughout the game development and delivery process
