Continuous Verification Testing
Continuous Verification Testing is the practice of automatically validating application behavior, performance, security, and operational health throughout the software delivery lifecycle. It extends beyond traditional test execution by continuously comparing real system behavior against expected baselines, policies, and service-level objectives in development, staging, and production environments. The goal is to detect regressions, configuration drift, and deployment risks as early as possible.
