Speakers: Continuous Integration (CI) is one of the cornerstones of all Agile software development, but it is a practice that is easy to get wrong. The world of CI has expanded dramatically in the 9 years since the publication of the Agile Manifesto, and at its best it can accelerate the entire release lifecycle by tying together development, QA, operations and release management. Unfortunately missing elements, organizational silos, or cultural immaturity often torpedo CI adoption efforts.
