Challenge
The client was facing various issues due to the low maturity of DevOps as well as the lack of best practices adoption, leaving many gaps to be addressed. Moreover, there were also issues in the CI-CD pipeline automation, and manual code promotions were limiting the team’s agility which lead to code quality and software release quality concerns. Ultimately, this led to a higher cost of ownership as well

The next step was to execute CAPE enabled accelerated build and deployment, automated code promotion with approval workflow, shift left testing, and integrated test automation for BUILD scrum teams.
Utilizing the CAPE platform, the automation-first approach led delivery for applistructure teams by integrating ML-based Initializers with RPA BOT Automation. To conclude the scope of the engagement, Mindtree provided real-time visibility of unified metrics for BUILD and RUN and set-up metrics-driven governance for KPI/CPI/GPI measurable growth.

- Delivered more user stories per sprint which increased throughput
