Continuous Integration

Do you feel in the dark as to the current state of your development effort? SQE Consulting's Continuous Integration framework can bring reliability and transparency to your build process.

A critical part of any successful development effort is the ability to execute reliable, repeatable builds of the software on-demand. Without such a capability, project teams accept a great deal of delivery risk and incur many unnecessary costs. Given the advent of low-cost, powerful tools, there is no excuse to develop without the safety net of continuous integration.

SQE Consulting deploys a robust continuous integration (CI) environment as part of every development engagement. The Free SecureCI™ provides a fully automated and reproducible build, including smoke tests such as unit and functional testing, code analysis and security scanning, and it executes them many times a day. Our effective application of continuous integration practices and open source tools provide greater confidence in producing a high-quality software product. With every build, your team has confidence that the software compiles and operates as expected, performs and scales, and adheres to the project coding and design standards. The result is a solid, deployable piece of software.

If your organization is new to continuous integration, SQE Consulting experts can ensure you get off on the right foot by:

  • Clarifying your organization’s goals with continuous integration
  • Selecting the proper unit testing, functional testing, security scanning, and code analysis tools
  • Supporting the deployment and integration of the continuous integration environment
  • Implementing a CI dashboard for use by all initiative stakeholders
  • Training for developers, testers, and project managers on the tools
  • Developing a process for the identification, prioritization, and remediation of issues discovered by the SecureCI™ stack
  • Supporting the deployment and integration of the continuous integration environment

Whether your team requires our support, or it is ready to use our SecureCI™ stack on its own, your organization can expect to realize the following benefits:

  • Eliminates repetitive manual build processes, freeing your team up for higher leverage work
  • Guarantees successfully compiled software
  • Provides mechanism for low-cost, valuable progress reporting and problem tracking
  • Requires low deployment and maintenance expenditures
