Stelligent Announces Addison-Wesley Professional Publication: Continuous Integration: Improving Software Quality and Reducing Risk

Co-authored by Paul Duvall, Stelligent CTO, Andrew Glover, Stelligent President, and Steve Matyas, the book is based on their experiences in software development, and illuminates the critical process of continuous integration (CI), or those concepts and practices that enable developers to create cohesive, working software many times a day.

Continuous Integration is organized into two parts: an introduction to CI and examination of its concepts and practices; and a look at other effective processes performed by CI systems, including database integration, testing, inspection, deployment, and feedback. The book includes more than 40 CI-related practices, and examples of the application of these practices.

For more information, visit the book’s companion Web site, http://www.integratebutton.com.  A sample chapter is available at http://www.awprofessional.com/title/0321336380. The book is available through major chain and independent booksellers worldwide and through online vendors at a suggested retail price of US $44.99.

For those of you local to the Washington DC area, Barnes and Noble will be hosting a book signing event with the authors of Continuous Integration at their Reston, VA store (1851 Fountain Drive) on August 30^th at 7:30 p.m.
