Jenkins + Docker sounds interesting. I assume one advantage is it is light weight compared to having to store a bunch of large VM images? Can Docker be used to deploy OS X Xcode and Windows Visual Studio build slaves? Or is the Docker engine always running a Linux system of some sort regardless if the engine host is Windows? -Ed Edward: How are you verifying Android and IOS builds? Using simulators or actual devices? Manual testing using actual hardware. An automated-smoke test would be nice. I do not know how I would do this. -Ed Yes, real device testing in the CI would be great. For android, you would have to automate GDB to uninstall and reinstall apk files. Then have code to support the simulation of user input and sensor data. It would be likely impossible to verify the GUI side, but models and business logic could be verified. And high volume testing could be executed. IOS is a different animal. Likely have to jailbreak a device just to get into it for automated program removal and testing. I have run into issues when I skipped manual build verification. I have had issues with both iOS TestFlight and Android Beta testing builds that did not run or install properly, Even automated smoke-test build verification using iOS simulator and Android simulator would be beneficial. ADB and Android might work. Not sure how to communicate with an iOS simulator. I think the simulator's file system can read by the OS X host. -Ed This email and any files transmitted with it from The Charles Machine Works, Inc. are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to which they are addressed.
