Perfect, fail fast(er). When the extreme programmers came up with continuous integration the idea was when someone checked in their code a couple of times per day and if that failed their automated build, it should be fixed within 10 minutes. Making sure that all code combines would keep working at all times. Ideally noone should check in anything that ...

Personally, I think this is absolutely fine. Since you said you are using feature branches, only builds on top of these branches are failing. Pull requests are only merged when the corresponding build passes, hence, trunk/master is not affected. The example with the missing space may sound a bit pettifogging, but I think having many different comment styles ...

You can see many general advantages of maven from other answers, but the main two reasons for having a build automation tool like maven in the test framework would be: Managing dependencies: Maven POM file allows adding details of dependencies like, which tool, which version, from which repository This ensures that all stakeholders or users of your test ...

Apache Maven is a software project management and comprehension tool. Based on the concept of a project object model (POM), Maven can manage a project's build, reporting and documentation from a central piece of information. Maven in Java based test automation projects is often only used as a build-runner and depency manager, but it has way more ...

POM is surely one of the main advantages of Maven. But there are more: Maven provides support for managing the full life cycle of a test project Maven enables you to extend your project with maven plugins (test reports etc.) JARS are done automatically this means that Maven automatically downloads the corresponding files POM is centralized hence each tester ...

I am not going to go into specifics because that is largely dependent on what tools you use. I use the Atlassian suite of products. We build an IPA file when new code is merged into a specific branch. This is done using Bamboo (although any CI tool should be able to do it) that gets triggered by a BitBucket trigger. The trigger fires off a Bamboo Plan on a ...
