Our software development projects each need to result, periodically, but preferably as soon as possible, in a deliverable that can be installed, preferably after a sane number of tests have been executed.

These tests should consist of the following levels;

• Build tests, to be executed as part of a post-commit response (Herald, Harbormaster, Drydock, Docker)
• Unit tests, to be executed as part of a post-commit response (Herald, Harbormaster, Drydock, Docker)
• Functional tests, to be executed as part of a post-commit response (Herald, Harbormaster, Drydock, Docker)
• Install tests, to be executed as part of a full set of builds of relevant software development projects.
• Integration tests, to be executed as part of a full set of builds of relevant software development projects.
• Performance tests, to be executed as part of a full set of builds of relevant software development projects.
