CI/CD in the serverless era
summary
Lumigo runs 20,000 integration tests per month and pushes ~30 production deployments weekly while claiming a CI/CD time cut of two‑thirds by using real AWS environments, parallel test stacks and an internal “uber deploy” orchestrator. Toolchain specifics: CircleCI, Bash + AWS CLI, Serverless Framework, Python services, Cypress for E2E. Key tactics that actually work: prefer real cloud resources over mocks, parallel isolated stacks to shrink 90→40 minute test runs, skip unchanged stack redeploys (30→5 minutes), and monitor with Lumigo for root‑cause.
