[python-uk] CI and deployment (was Re: Suggestions / best practices for deployment)

[Antonio Cavallo]

I don't know any scenario like that: usually dependencies are frozen (and tested) separately in a "release". It makes the whole process simpler.

Possibly they wanted to test how far they can push TDD, to be able to do testing on the entire code (apps + libraries) using the development branch (all commits done on it), api changes in the clients breaking the servers…

I hope you won't find *any* CI doing that: that'd be very "code specific" nothing that a CI should be aware of  :D  

I hope this helps
