What is Continuous Integration?

7
What is CI?
“Continuous Integration is a software development practice where members of a team integrate their work frequently, usually each person integrates at least daily - leading to multiple integrations per day. Each integration is verified by an automated build (including test) to detect integration errors as quickly as possible…this approach leads to significantly reduced integration problems and allows a team to develop cohesive software more rapidly.”
“Today, meaningful integration happens less in source control and more frequently in a runtime environment… if you want to quickly verify that the work of two developers is not conflicting, you need to run API tests, as well as some functional tests scenarios. That means bringing the various services into an integration test environment, and validating runtime functionality at a pace similar to the classic CI build loop ”

What is CI?

9
Why CI?
•Automation of repetitive manual processes
•More time focusing on adding value
•No need to wait hours, days, months to know how check-in affects the build
•Constant availability for the build for testing, demo or release
•Shared accountability
•Increased team productivity
•Higher quality software, faster!

10
•Agile Development is CI with consideration of planning and reporting
–Ensure fluid coordination and communication between stakeholders
–Track “plan” and work items
–Report

•Leverage common platform as “hub”
•Connect multiple heterogeneous tools and process
•Centralize source IP
•Enables governance while reducing team overhead
•Establish central build platform and/or eco-system
•Flexible support for different teams needs
•Support easy on-boarding
•Managed or self-service
•Establish traceability early and consistently
•Integrate requirements/stories and work-item tracking to SCM
•Require associations between source code (or infrastructure) changes and originating work

Connect Agile Upstream to Downstream: Example
①Ops, DB, and App Developers implement user stories from TeamForge and commit changes to SVN/GIT, the user stories and code changes are associated.
②A CI build job runs, executing unit tests, code analysis, etc, a TeamForge Build Artifact is created, change notes are generated and associated.
③Every 15 minutes or on-demand a snapshot build is published to the Nexus Repository. The snapshot build is deployed to the Development servers by Automic.
④The Project Manager reviews the Change Notes and Release Folder in TeamForge and using the data decides to promote a build as a Release Candidate, she creates a Release Manager Artifact (RMA) and set it to “Ready to Release.”
⑤A Jenkins Release Candidate Promotion job runs executing the application builds, publishing the artifacts to Nexus and populating Automic with the release meta-data.
⑥An Automic package references the Nexus release holding the release candidate to be deployed.
⑦Operations, QA and/or Change Management promote and deploy the release candidate using Automic Workflows.
⑧At each promotion and deployment step the TeamForge Release Artifact is updated from Automic and team members receive email notifications.
⑨The Release Dashboard in TeamForge provides up-to-date pipeline Activity Reports and Release Notes.
⑩Dev, QA, Ops and Management can view the Release Dashboard inTeamForge to track acitivy and make informed decisions.
