A perfect application network that:
organized around value units well
defined.
is recomposable
emerges in the background
through self-service
visibility, security and y gobernability
are built
connectivity and reusability are high
level worries
blends but not break.
every node adds value to the
network
business recovers future control

32. Applying CI/CD with Mule
Speaker: Fernando Silva

33. All contents © MuleSoft Inc.
The problem
33
• Software developers often work in isolation.
• They need to integrate their changes with the rest of the team’s
code base.
• They wait for days or weeks to integrate code.
• Finally when they integrate the code they have:
 Merge conflicts. Hard to fix bugs. Diverging code strategies. Duplicated
efforts.

34. All contents © MuleSoft Inc. 34
What is Continuous
Integration?

35. All contents © MuleSoft Inc.
Continuous Integration
35
• Practice of merging all developer working copies to a shared
mainline every time a team member commits changes to version
control.
• Continuously build, test and validate the software.
• Developers write unit, functional and integration tests that
validate their modules are correct.
• The entire project can be tested / validated locally by developers
and automatically by a build system.

Continuous Delivery
• Practices designed to ensure that code can be rapidly and safely
deployed by delivering every change to a environment and ensuring
business applications and services function as expected through
rigorous automated testing.
• You can have confidence the application can be deployed to production
with a push of a button when the business is ready.
• It means every change is proven to be deployable at any time.
