Tiivistelmä
In recent years, the mobile application market has challenged developers to develop and release quality applications rapidly. This fierce competition requires application development to be conducted in an efficient way. Continuous integration (CI) is a software development practice which focuses on automation. Applying CI practice into the mobile application development properly helps developers have an effective application development.
By conducting case study on the project Seutuhaku at Observis Oy, the author shows how CI is applied to mobile application development. The case study design and the steps of applying are discussed in this thesis.
The results of the case study highlight the advantages of the new development practice when compared with the previous development practice. Moreover, issues of applying the new development practice such as the vision of project leaders and the commitments of developers are listed and discussed. It is to be hoped that the results of the case study are able to help other mobile application developers pay attention to CI and apply it appropriately.
