Beta Testing using Feature Flags
Beta testing is crucial for product development, but traditional methods have become challenging due to continuous delivery and increased release cadence. Feature toggles are an effective solution to overcome these challenges by allowing granular control over software releases. They enable non-technical team members to opt-in users to new beta experiences, perform incremental percentage rollouts, and provide real-time opt-in/opt-out options. Feature toggle management platforms can further enhance the process by providing access control and mitigating technical debt.
