AWS DevOps Agent adds release management capabilities to assess code changes before production (preview)
Summary

AWS DevOps Agent now in preview adds release readiness review and autonomous release testing, evaluating code changes against natural language standards and running change-specific tests in isolated environments before production. The agent checks cross-repository dependency risks, access controls against AWS Well-Architected Framework, and executes lightweight user journey tests, surfacing findings in the console and as PR comments on GitHub or GitLab. Autonomous release testing generates tailored test plans for web and API apps, producing structured artifacts (metrics, logs, traces) to address the growing review bottleneck from AI-generated code.
