This page contains tentative/proposed details for the Software Build and Release professional option, to be first offered in Winter 2009.

Course Name

Build and Release Automation BAR6xx

Course Description

Software Build and Release creates reliable, replicable processes to turn source code and related inputs into ready-to-run software. This encompasses version control systems, automated build farms and test systems, packaging and composition, software distribution and mirroring, and process-monitoring systems; these critical systems are highly automated and make extensive use of scripting languages such as Bash, Perl, and Python. Students will learn to manage the Build and Release process by selecting, installing, configuring, customizing, and maintaining a variety of build tools. This is a project-based course, and students will work within an established Open Source community. The particular open source community or communities to be studied will vary with each offering and be announced at the beginning of the semester.
