How LaunchDarkly Enables Product Managers to Test in Production

Karishma Irani, Principal Product Manager at LaunchDarkly, discussed how their feature management platform enables product managers to experiment with and validate new features in a production environment during the September Test in Production Meetup. Feature flagging allows for experimentation by testing different variations of a particular feature, such as colors of a button or placement of page numbers. This helps PMs control certain aspects of feature testing and releases, leading to faster value delivery and better customer feedback. LaunchDarkly's custom roles provide granularity in controlling access to features, while its experimentation capabilities allow for rapid iteration and scaling.
