Release Engineering Best Practices at Google
Dinah McNutt, Google
Google Release Engineers are specialists in a company that traditionally has a culture of cultivating generalists. This is a snapshot of where we currently are with respect to disciplines, technology and best practices.
This talk will describe Google’s philosophy of release engineering and disciplines within release engineering at Google. It will include some technical details on how we are using bazel to help with our release processes, branching strategies using Google technology, and our automated release system.
The target audience is anyone interested in learning more about release engineering or who is looking for ideas on ways to improve release processes.
