A recipe for a CI/CD pipeline
Pipelines can be as complex or straightforward as your team wants them to be. From just running a few unit tests to automatically promoting your application to beta and onwards to production on the Play Store, and everything in between. They do, however, have a few things in common, like helping us collaborate and ship better applications.
In this not-really-a-cooking-show we will take a series of steps on our journey to cooking up a complete, Michelin starred CI/CD pipeline for a native Android application - using the ingredients already in your cupboard, like Kotlin and your favourite Gradle plugins!
Some of the things we will cover:
Various types of tests
Security and static checks
Releasing and promoting on Play Store
Project management tooling integrations
Manual revisions
And more!
