We live in a world of patterns. Some very clever people have been identifying and naming patterns in software for a long time now. In build and deployment, we’re just beginning. Here’s five:
- Aslak Hellesøy kicks things off with Immediate Test Failure Notification. If you’ve ever had to sit through a long CI build and then find out a test failed for some really crappy reason, you’ll like this one.
- Jon Tirsen introduces the Fast and the Full Builds. When your full build seems to take hours, you might break this one out.
- Sam Newman gives us the Checkin Gate. Otherwise known as the Checkin Dance.
- The Build Doctor prescribes the Amnesiac CI Build.
- Parumu gives us (among others) Binary Deliverable - one big monolith of deployment. Unsubtle but very predictable.
There must be more. If you have any suggestions I’d love to hear them. Comment here or drop a line to ‘medic@build-doctor.com’ …
