Continuous Discussions (#c9d9): Episode 7 Recap – CI & CD for Mobile Apps

So many apps, so little time.. Earlier today we had a great time speaking with Justin Schultz, Kevin Rohling and Prathap Dendi about CI and CD for mobile apps, and what does your mobile phone and the App Store have to do with parking your car or dimming your lights. We discussed:

• The effect that the app market has on consumer expectations and consequently release processes

• Which is better for mobile CI: cloud or on-premise?

• How is testing different for mobile apps?

• How code signing and App Store publishing affect your development process?

We also touched on some of the most exciting things to happen to mobile development in 2014, and where we think 2015 is heading (also, we debated the question of whether Android users can read :)).
