DEV322: Continuous Integration Best Practices for Software Development Teams

Today, more teams are adopting continuous integration (CI) techniques to enable collaboration, increase agility, and deliver a high-quality product faster. Cloud-based development tools such as AWS CodeCommit and AWS CodeBuild can enable teams to easily adopt CI practices without the need to manage infrastructure. In this session, we showcase a Crawl, Walk, and Run approach to CI. In Crawl, we showcase how to use AWS CodeBuild with your master code branch for running a basic CI workflow. In Walk, we add team collaboration capabilities to the previously developed CI workflow and showcase feature branches and pull requests. In Run, we showcase how to optimize the CI workflow for speed and quality with caching, code analysis, and integration testing.
