Shift-Right Testing

<default_to_action> When testing in production or implementing progressive delivery:

1. IMPLEMENT feature flags for progressive rollout (1% → 10% → 50% → 100%)
2. DEPLOY with canary releases (compare metrics before full rollout)
3. MONITOR with synthetic tests (proactive) + RUM (reactive)
4. INJECT failures with chaos engineering (build resilience)
5. ANALYZE production data to improve pre-production testing

Quick Shift-Right Techniques:

• Feature flags → Control who sees what, instant rollback
• Canary deployment → 5% traffic, compare error rates
• Synthetic monitoring → Simulate users 24/7, catch issues before users
• Chaos engineering → Netflix-style failure injection
• RUM (Real User Monitoring) → Actual user experience data
