In recent years, Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD) has been heatedly discussed and widely used in part or all of the software development life cycle as the practices and pipeline to deliver software products in an…

Mobile apps face strong pressure for fast and reliable updates. Continuous Integration (CI) helps automate builds, tests, and releases, but its impact on mobile development remains underexplored. Despite the widespread use of CI, little is…

Context: Continuous practices, i.e., continuous integration, delivery, and deployment, are the software development industry practices that enable organizations to frequently and reliably release new features and products. With the…

The growing popularity of machine learning (ML) and the integration of ML components with other software artifacts has led to the use of continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) tools, such as Travis CI, GitHub Actions, etc. that enable…

In this paper, we study the benefits and challenges of monitoring Continuous Integration (CI) practices in software development. Our aim is to evaluate the impact of monitoring seven CI practices in industry using three organizations in…

Continuous integration (CI) has become a ubiquitous practice in modern software development, with major code hosting services offering free automation on popular platforms. CI offers major benefits, as it enables detecting bugs in code…

Managing technical debt (TD) is critical to ensure the sustainability of long-term software projects. However, the time and cost involved in technical debt management (TDM) often discourage practitioners from performing this activity…

Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD) have been demonstrated to be effective in facilitating software building, testing, and deployment. Many research studies have investigated and subsequently improved their working…

Continuous Integration (CI) is a widely adopted practice for faster code change integration and testing. Developers often migrate between CI systems in pursuit of features like matrix building or better logging. However, this migration is…

Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipeline automates software development to speed up and enhance the efficiency of engineering software. These workflows consist of various jobs, such as code validation and testing,…

Automated builds are integral to the Continuous Integration (CI) software development practice. In CI, developers are encouraged to integrate early and often. However, long build times can be an issue when integrations are frequent. This…

Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) is a well-established practice that automatically builds, tests, packages, and deploys software systems. To adopt CI/CD, software developers need to configure their projects using…

A long continuous integration (CI) build forces developers to wait for CI feedback before starting subsequent development activities, leading to time wasted. In addition to a variety of build scheduling and test selection heuristics studied…

Android instrumentation tests (end-to-end tests that run on a device or emulator) can catch problems that simpler tests miss. However, running these tests automatically in continuous integration (CI) is often difficult because emulator…

Continuous Integration (CI) has evolved from a tooling strategy to a fundamental mindset in modern CI engineering. It enables teams to develop, test, and deliver software rapidly and collaboratively. Among CI services, GitHub Actions (GHA)…

When a developer pushes a change to an application's codebase, a good practice is to have a test case specifying this behavioral change. Thanks to continuous integration (CI), the test is run on subsequent commits to check that they do no…

The constant demand for new features and bug fixes are forcing software projects to shorten cycles and deliver updates ever faster, while sustaining software quality. The availability of inexpensive, virtualized, cloud-computing has helped…

Fault-detection, localization, and repair methods are vital to software quality; but it is difficult to evaluate their generality, applicability, and current effectiveness. Large, diverse, realistic datasets of durably-reproducible faults…

Teaching programming using Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) is gaining popularity due to their scalability and efficiency of knowledge distribution. However, participating in these courses usually means fully committing to the supplied…

Industrial embedded systems often require specialized hardware. However, software engineers have access to such domain-specific hardware only at the continuous integration (CI) stage and have to use simulated hardware otherwise. This…
