The company routinely tests its software updates before pushing them out to customers, CrowdStrike said in the report. But on July 19, a bug in CrowdStrike’s cloud-based testing system — specifically, the part that runs validation checks on new updates prior to release — ended up allowing the software to be pushed out “despite containing problematic content data.”
My thoughts are to have a set of machines that have to run the update for a while, and if any single machine doesn’t pass and all allow it to move forward, it halts any further rollout.
It is time to write tests for tests!
