From YouTube: Verify Team Overview
A
Welcome
to
the
verify
stage,
my
name
is
jackie
porter,
the
group
manager
of
product
in
the
verify
stage
at
gitlab
we're
responsible
for
helping
users
and
organizations
automate
the
building
and
testing
of
their
code
with
four
main
groups.
These
groups
are
pipeline
authoring,
which
is
made
up
of
pipeline
authoring
and
jenkins
and
porter
categories.
A
The
runner
group,
which
is
responsible
for
our
build
agent
and
supporting
the
capabilities
across
cloud
and
self-managed
users,
testing
group,
which
enables
a
comprehensive
suite
of
automating
testing
capabilities
right
in
gitlab,
for
an
integrated
testing
experience
and
I'm
so
excited
to
be
leading
this
organization.
For
a
handful
of
reasons.
First,
the
team
is
pretty
inspired.
A
They
are
contributing
such
incredible
work
every
day
that
I'm
really
proud
of.
Some
of
these
experiences
include
this
new
pipeline
drawer
that
the
pipeline
authoring
team
has
introduced
recently.
This
is
in
addition
to
the
pipeline
editor
experience
that
allows
a
really
interactive
experience
for
users
to
be
empowered
to
edit
aml
file
without
having
to
deal
with
syntax.
A
Second,
the
runner
team
is
introducing
an
open
beta
program
to
support
mac
os
runners.
This
really
allows
apple
developers
to
be
using
mac
runners
in
an
innovative
way,
which
is
great
because
we
don't
support
mac
os
runners,
and
this
will
enable
us
to
use
apple
products
for
for
building
which
we
don't
do
in
gitlab.
A
These
usability
focuses
for
developers
so
we're
prioritizing
ux
experiences
in
ci
cd
and
the
pipeline's
view
to
help
reduce
friction
for
people
who
are
going
between
these
different
views
across
gitlab
and
then.
Lastly,
we
are
improving
the
code
quality
mr
widget
experience
and
making
it
easier
to
use
in
13.11
again
proving
that
feedback
loop.
A
Next,
the
immense
amount
of
opportunity
that
we
have
in
the
verify
stage
is
the
second
reason
why
I
am
really
excited
to
be
leading
this
product
area.
We
see
in
calendar
year
2024
that
this
amount
of
opportunity
we
see
in
this
bottom
stack
here
that
verify
is
growing
proportionally
to
the
op
section.
A
This
means
that
our
target
persona
of
sasha,
the
developer,
which
is
what
this
dev
tools
analysis,
is
based
on,
allows
us
to
really
target
that
market,
with
our
investment
that
we
have
planned
for
the
next
couple
of
years,
and
we
can
start
introducing
new
problem
sets
and
new
jobs
to
be
done
for
additional
personas,
like
delaney,
the
team
lead
and
the
code
of
the
director
into
into
those
workflows,
which
is
really
compelling
for
our
devops
tool
chain
today.
A
A
A
As
a
wrap-up,
the
verify
stage
is
responsible
for
the
processing
of
pipelines.
We
are
responsible
for
authoring,
yaml
files,
helping
users
to
continuously
test
and
execute
jobs
in
gitlab,
we're
one
of
the
main
pathways
of
customer
adoption
and
we're
here
to
drive
delightful
cross-stage,
efficient
experiences
throughout
the
devops
lifecycle.
