Continuous integration (CI) is considered the most advanced configuration management methodology in software development. Every approved change to the source code is continuously transferred to a central repository and automatically checked, tested, and packaged on a build server. This ensures that the software remains operational at all times.
LieberLieber LemonTree makes it possible for the first time to apply this proven method to the world of modeling.
With LemonTree Automation, team members can work on different areas of a model in a distributed and staggered manner. All changes are automatically merged into an integrated model version on a build server (e.g., Jenkins) without user interaction.
Only in the event of complex conflicts — i.e., when conflicting changes occur on the same model element — are the affected users notified. They then resolve the conflicts manually with LemonTree.
This makes continuous integration for models a reality — and completes the transition from traditional software development to model-based development.
