About this title

Synopsis

Continuous integration, delivery and deployment promise rapid feedback and short turn-around times, which serve as enablers for greater responsiveness in the face of changing markets and disruptive technologies alike. It is this responsiveness to threats and opportunities that makes the difference between success and extinction in the software industry of tomorrow.
Coverage includes:

• An overview of the various continuous practices
• Explanations and guidance adapted to different contexts and circumstances
• A concrete structured method to leverage continuous practices for your needs

Daniel Ståhl and Torvald Mårtensson have as researchers and practitioners observed, studied and participated in a multitude of software projects in a range of companies and segments of the software industry. Now they have teamed up to share their experiences and insights and provide hands-on guidance to software engineers looking to improve their continuous practices.
