Continuous Build,Deploy & Test

Summary

The software has to be released today. Its late evening, pizza has gone stale, the programmers are still feverishly putting in the last minute fixes, the build engineer is struggling to get a clean build to hand over to the test group which is waiting to certify it clean before it gets released. Somehow the team does succeed in releasing the software that night but barely so. The next morning bugs have started to fill in-boxes of the programmers before they straggle in late and realize that in the last minute rush a number of necessary features and bugs were missed out.
