|
|
|
|
|
integrate into enterprise-level integration environments and source control.

[Continuous Integration (CI)](https://www.thoughtworks.com/continuous-integration) is a development
|
2022-02-06 18:34:09 +00:00
|
|
|
practice that requires developers to integrate code into a shared repository.
|
|
|
|
|
Each check-in is then verified by an automated build, allowing teams to detect problems early. This
|
|
|
|
|
can be set up to safely deploy data to a production server only after tests have passed, for example.

|
|
|
* Pull down a latest build from Source Control.
|
|
|
|
|
* Run migrations on the backing SQL database.
|
|
|
|
|
* Automate additional unique tasks for that project.
|
|
|
|
|
* Run unit tests.
|
|
|
|
|
* Publish those files to the server directory
|
|
|
|
|
* Reload the game.
