Continuous delivery
• is a software development discipline where you
build software in such a way that the software
can be released to production at any time.

You’re doing continuous delivery when:
• Your software is deployable throughout its lifecycle
• Your team prioritizes keeping the software deployable
over working on new features
• Anybody can get fast, automated feedback on the
production readiness of their systems any time somebody
makes a change to them
• You can perform push-button deployments of any version
of the software to any environment on demand

The Django’s way
• Unittest: module built in to the Python standard
library
• Nose framework: uses custom test loader
causes troubles with Django code
• django-discover-runner requires Django 1.4
built-in in Django 1.6

django-discover-runner
• add a test_settings.py file to your app package
• django-admin.py test
--settings=myapp.test_settings myapp

• Discard old build records to keep Jenkins
status healthy
