Continuous integration is a development practice that requires developers to integrate code into a shared repository multiple times a day, with each check-in verified by an automated build to detect problems early. Continuous integration differs from continuous delivery, which aims to deliver high quality software quickly, and continuous deployment, which automatically releases software passing automated tests into production. Continuous integration brings benefits like reducing integration issues and allowing faster software delivery by catching issues early.
One of the challenges faced by many web development based projects is the integration of source code for multiple releases during parallel development. The task to build and test the multiple versions of source code can eat out the quality time and limit the efficiency of the development/QA team. The case study focuses to resolve the issues of extensive effort consumed in build and deployment process from multiple branches in source repository and aim at Identification of source code integration issues at the earliest stage. This can further be enhanced to limit the manual intervention by integration of build system with test automation tool.
The above can be achieved by using different CI tools (like Hudson/Bamboo/TeamCity/CruiseControl etc) for continuous build preparation and its integration with any test automation suite. The case study specifies the use of CI-Hudson tool for continuous integration using ANT tool for build preparation and further invoking the automation test suite developed using selenium. It also discusses the limitations and challenges of using such an integration system for testing a web based application deployed on Apache Tomcat server. It also details additional plugins available to enhance such an integration of multiple systems and what can be achieved using the above integration.

DevOps Continuous Integration & Delivery - A Whitepaper by RapidValueRapidValue
In this whitepaper, we will deep dive into the concept of continuous integration, continuous delivery and continuous deployment and explain how businesses can benefit from this. We will also elucidate on how to build an effective CI/CD pipeline and some of the best practices for your enterprise DevOps journey.
Testing is a vital part of software development, since it is about finding the software bugs. You can choose from automated and manual testing. Automated testing is good for large projects with many systems users, while manual testing is good for smaller projects or for companies with insufficient budget.
You can also run Continuous testing. The purpose of Continuous testing and continuous integration is to enable continuous delivery, the end goal of which is to accelerate the delivery of high quality software.
Automation is essential for Continuous Testing but Automated Testing is not the same as Continuous Testing.
Try Jenkins Test Automation with codeBeamer ALM. Jenkins is an open source continuous integration tool written in Java. Jenkins provides continuous integration services for software development.
Today’s cutting edge companies have software release cycles measured in days instead of months. This agility is enabled by the DevOps practice of continuous delivery, which automates building, testing, and deploying all code changes. This automation helps you catch bugs sooner and accelerates developer productivity. In this session, we’ll share best practices (including ones followed internally at Amazon) and how you can bring them to your company by using open source and AWS services.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

This is a project with the objective to develop a basic website where a consumer is provided with a shopping cart website and also to know about the technologies used to develop such a website.
This document will discuss each of the underlying technologies to create and implement an e- commerce website.
Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

What is the difference between continuous integration vs. continuous delivery &
continuous deployment?
Why is continuous integration important?
Continuous Integration Process
Continuous Delivery Process
Continuous Deployment Process
Team Responsibility
3. What is continuous integration?
Is a development practice that requires developers to integrate code into a shared
repository several times a day.
Each check-in is then verified by an automated build, allowing teams to detect
problems early.
Is a strategy for how a developer can integrate code to the mainline continuously -
as opposed to frequently.
4. What is the difference between continuous
integration vs. continuous delivery &
continuous deployment?
Continuous Integration (CI) is the process of enforcing developers to merge their
code to mainstream branch or working code base as often as possible.
Continuous Delivery is the practice which aims to to deliver high quality software
really quickly every time.
Continuous Deployment refers to the release into production of software that
passes the automated tests.
5. Why is Continuous Integration important?
Continuous Integration brings multiple benefits to your organization:
Say goodbye to long and tense integrations
Increase visibility which enables greater communication
Catch issues fast and nip them in the bud
Spend less time debugging and more time adding features
Proceed in the confidence you’re building on a solid foundation
Stop waiting to find out if your code’s going to work
Reduce integration problems allowing you to deliver software more rapidly

9. Team Responsibility
Check in frequently
Don’t check in broken code
Don’t check in untested code
Don’t check in when the build is broken
Don’t go home after checking in until the system builds
10. The practices
Maintain a single source repository
Automate the build
Make your build self-testing
Every commit should build on an integration machine
Keep the build fast
Test in a clone of the production environment
Make it easy for anyone to get the latest executable
Everyone can see what’s happening

Continuous Integration vs Continuous Delivery vs Continuous Deployment
Continuous Integration By Martin Fowler
Editor's Notes
Delivery requires a manual push to production where deployment is set up to automatically push to prod.
Developers check out code into their private workspaces.
When done, commit the changes to the repository.
The CI server monitors the repository and checks out changes when they occur.
The CI server builds the system and runs unit and integration tests.
The CI server releases deployable artefacts for testing.
The CI server assigns a build label to the version of the code it just built.
The CI server informs the team of the successful build.
If the build or tests fail, the CI server alerts the team.
The team fix the issue at the earliest opportunity.
Continue to continually integrate and test throughout the project.
