Two weeks ago, I had the opportunity to speak about Continuous Integration (CI) and DevOps at WordCamp San Diego. In my talk, I gave an introduction to CI and DevOps for WordPress, looked at some of the available tools for implementing CI, and gave some practical examples of how you would get started with CI on your next WordPress project. DevOps is a culture and environment where building, testing, and releasing software can happen rapidly, frequently, and more reliably through iteration, communication, and automation. This shift in culture may take time for you or your organization to implement, but it will pay off in the long run and improve the quality and consistency of your code while allowing you to ship great ideas to your customers…faster.
