As more and more software engineering organizations adopt agile
development, the need for continuous integration of a build can be a
daunting and cumbersome task.
Like many firms Intuit has seen a dramatic increase in its software
production requirements, from releasing two products in an annual
release to delivering multiple products in multiple releases per
year. In this webinar Jon Burt, Manager of SCM at Intuit, discusses
why and how his team implemented a continuous integration strategy for
the QuickBooks line.
