CI/CD (continuous integration and continuous delivery) is a set of practices that automates the software development and delivery process. It helps teams to deliver high-quality software to users more quickly and reliably.
This step-by-step guide shows you how to implement CI/CD in your Agile team:
1. 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁 𝗢𝘄𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗿𝗮𝗳𝘁𝘀 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀: The Product Owner creates user stories that describe the features and functionality that the team should develop.
2. 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲: The development team uses tools like Jira or Rally to manage the user stories and track their progress.
3. 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Tools like Slack or Teams and GitHub or Bitbucket are used to promote transparency and collaboration within the team.
4. 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝘂𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Tools like SonarQube and DevOps are used to conduct static code analysis, trigger builds, and provide insightful feedback.
5. 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗱𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲: Tools like JaCoCo and JUnit are used to implement unit tests and code coverage. Jenkins and Maven can be used for build and deployment.
