In today's fast-paced and highly competitive technology landscape, businesses rely on Continuous Integration to accelerate software development, enhance collaboration, and maintain high-quality codebases. While CI offers numerous benefits, it is essential to understand and manage the costs associated with its implementation and maintenance effectively. This article explores the
The main idea in a feature branch workflow is that development for each feature happens independently instead of in the main branch. That makes it easier for developers to work on different features without hindering or interfering with the main trunk. It also allows continuous integration since broken code never
Product Features
When you are developing new products or features, time is key, and you can't accept being stopped several times because of malfunction. And by malfunction, we mean the main branch being red instead of green, with your developer team waiting and wasting time trying to repair the whole
In a team of software developers, the code reviews of your peers on your contribution to the code base are essential to build a product of great quality, while everyone keeps sharpening their skills in the process. Thanks to that, your team also stays aware of the evolution of the
