"Continuous integration, or CI, is a practice used by developers to ensure that the code they've built is correct before it is integrated into the software application on which they are working. The way we use CI is to require our developers to deposit their code into a shared repository several times a day. We then run build tests on the code to ensure that it was built correctly. This has been very effective at maintaining the integrity of our applications."

Yet another hybrid operational and technical question. By now, you should be starting to recognize these. As a reminder, the best way to answer these questions is to define the term and then provide an example of how it is used in your day to day work.

"Continuous Integration, or CI, is a development practice which helps to reduce errors and bugs while developing a new software feature or application. The CI and automated build server will recognize when a new piece of code has been developed. It will then run a test that will determine if the build was successful or whether it needs attention from the development team. This is an integral part of our software development process."
