The Current State of DevSecOps Metrics

In the BBC documentary series 'Connections' technical innovations build on one another over time. New capabilities create new possibilities, new challenges, and new needs. This pattern also applies to the evolution of software engineering, where changes in software engineering practices are often driven by changes in underlying technologies. For example, the practice of frequent compiling and testing of code was a legacy of the post-punchcard era in the 1980s. When dedicated desktop compilers increased the convenience of compilation, it became easier for engineers to compile and test more frequently, which then became a common practice.
