Atlassian has added a continuous integration service as a new feature to their GitHub Cloud product. It’s called GitHub Pipelines and it is similar to Travis CI for GitHub offering a nice integration for continuous integration/delivery pipelines for projects hosted on GitHub. It’s still in the beta phase and requires a sign-up but nevertheless I’d like to demonstrate the current state of this service and how easy it is to add scripted pipelines to a project. ...

Mutation testing makes an interesting addition to the classical test coverage metrics. They seed mutations (errors) into the code, run the project’s tests afterwards and if the tests fail, the mutation is killed – otherwise it lived and we have a possible indication of an issue with our tests. In the following short tutorial. I’d like to demonstrate how to setup mutation tests with the PIT/Pitest library and Maven and generate reports. ...

Recently in a project I encountered the following problem: The development team used Git with a branch-per-feature-like workflow and the integration server, Bamboo in this case, was configured not only to run the integration-tests for the master-branch but also for every change in a feature branch. As the team developed a Java EE web application ports like 8080 occasionally were already bound and builds failed. I knew a plug-in for Jenkins CI I to search for available ports and assign them to a build variable but I wanted to control such information directly within the Maven build life-cycle so I searched and finally found Sonatype’s Port Allocator Plug-in for Maven. ...

Generate AsciiDoc Documentation and Publish it with GitLab Pages We setup a repository and add a directory named docs there .. this is the home of our AsciiDoc files. We’re using asciidoctor/docker-asciidoctor as Docker image for tool provisioning This is the .gitlab-ci.yml, we’re running the stage only when something in the docs directory has changed. stages: - "Build docs" # The name of the job activates the GitLab pages publication pages: image: asciidoctor/docker-asciidoctor stage: "Build docs" tags: - build script: - sh ./gen_docs.sh - mv output public only: refs: - master changes: - /docs/* artifacts: paths: - public expose_as: 'Documentation Archive' ...
