As users hunger for new versions and fresh features of their favorite apps, software developers are under increasing pressure to release updated apps in shorter and shorter time spans. No matter how much time developers have for each release, it’s impossible to launch an error-free app, since some bugs are inevitable.

Progressive delivery is a method of software development that allows organizations to release updated apps rapidly while maintaining quality and minimizing the chance of bugs wreaking havoc on the stability of the app.
