Pre-Flight Builds: What They Are, Why You Should Care and How to Make Them a Reality

Tue, 1 Jul 2008 14:23:00 EDT

The build is back, and it's back in the hands of developers. That's the message of this webinar. There's a fundamental disconnect between a developer doing incremental builds on their small section of a build and the nightly build rebuilding everything. Agile techniques increase the frequency of 'nightly' builds making them happen many times per day, but developers still break the build by checking in bad code. The solution is the pre-flight build: a complete software build in the hands of every software developer and run before they ever commit code. In this webinar we'll discuss the benefits and impact of pre-flight builds, along with ways to make them a reality in your organization. Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008 - 11 am PT / 2 pm ET
