Build automation
open-in-new
<p>Build automation is the practice of <a href="/facts/Software_build/uTz1koQy">building</a> software systems in a relatively unattended fashion. The build is configured to run with minimized or no <a href="/facts/Software_developer/WGTS1Jv9">software developer</a> interaction and without using a developer's personal computer. Build automation encompasses the act of configuring the <a href="/facts/Build_system_(software_development)/VXqdb3Q9">build system</a> as well the resulting system itself. </p><p>Build automation encompasses both sequencing build operations via <a href="/facts/Command-line_interface/R9JpGmXQ">non-interactive interface</a> tools and running builds on a shared <a href="/facts/Server_(computing)/dEaYFD7r">server</a>. </p>
