Hello! My name is Dima Voronin, I am the architect of mobile applications in Avito, I am engaged in testing infrastructure, CI. On September 27, we will conduct a live broadcast on our YouTube channel and discuss continuous integration and continuous delivery in iOS and Android. Broadcast straight from our office. Let's talk about the basics: why we need CI / CD and how to configure them, let's touch on UI testing and feature toggling, and then - deeper and more interesting. We do not know where the conversation will lead. Experts from Yandex, Alfa-Bank and Avito will take part in the discussion.

Under the cut are sample questions that we plan to discuss (and suggest you add to this list), as well as passwords and turnout for those who want to join the broadcast. Add a post to your bookmarks: after the meeting we will update it and post the video.

Sample discussion questions

CI for each platform

Why do I need to customize CI
What solutions do you use for CI
What checks are used: rules, pr, linters, code coverage and so on
UI testing
Why do I need UI testing. How to reduce the time of regression from infinity to one day. Infrastructure for UI tests. How to involve people in writing tests, both programmers and non-programmers. How much it costs: maintain the code, iron, whether it saves time.
What iron is needed for all this
Whether the farm is required from a Mac Mini or Mac Pro. Does CI take a lot of time, what parameters are needed, how much does it cost, are there alternatives? And what if there is no money?
How is rolling out to the app stores?

CD

What is the difference from CI
Feature Toggling
How do processes work before release? How to check that you did not forget to add a flag to the feature. What to do if there are more than three hundred flags. How the system works after the release. How is the haulage.
Monitoring applications after the release - how it
works crash and what to do with them. What product and technical metrics should be considered.
Types of assemblies for internal testing
Beta versions of the application, early releases, phased rollouts, working with beta versions of the application in stores, working with early access.
