This topic is specially for users who are new to the Build, SCM and Release Management and need to understand how can they setup the infrastructure and what are their options. To Build the system to automate the build and deployment process there are few main areas which needs to be covered. Following are our prerequisite. - Source code   - Builds System -  Deployments - QA Automation To describe above here are main ingredients

Few Maven Tips and tricks to make Maven builds fast and faster and efficiently. This can help to reduce the build timings drastically and optimize your build timings Run compilation parallel mvn -T 2 clean compile #Above will trigger 2 threads mvn -T 1C clean install #Above will trigger 1 thread per CPU, if you have 2 CPU core then 2 threads will be spawned. #You can even give number in fraction (1.5, 2.5 etc).

Gradle and Maven (or Both) The world of build tools evolve from simple compilation (gcc) to make files, then evolution of ant(+ivy) and Maven, now the latest build tool is Gradle.
