Code coverage standards for a Next.js project using CircleCI and Coveralls

An essential part of software development, testing helps catch bugs and errors early, improves software quality, and ultimately prevents costly issues from being deployed to production. The effectiveness of software testing will remain uncertain until it can be measured and that is where code coverage comes in. Code coverage is a metric that tells developers what portion of their codebase is executed when specific tests are run.

Why Jenkins might cost you 10x more than Bitbucket Pipelines

Any company still running their own CI/CD, such as Jenkins, is paying a price. The question is which one: Each of these is extremely costly, and yet many software teams still host and run their own CI/CD for two reasons: tools like Jenkins are cheap or free, and hosting Jenkins on an AWS EC2 instance is often cheaper per minute than SaaS CI/CD services like Bitbucket Pipelines. Both reasons are true, but they’re also a trap.

JFrog and ServiceNow: Accelerate Trusted Software Application Development

Today’s software organizations can’t make tradeoffs between speed and trust – you need both to succeed. But juggling them is tough. Moving too fast can lead to security vulnerabilities and compliance issues, while moving too slow means your competitors beat you to market. This tension creates friction that slows down every release, a problem that is rooted in your software pipeline.

AI-powered email automation with CI/CD pipelines

Email automation allows you to send emails automatically based on certain triggers or schedules, so you don’t have to click the Send button every time. This includes things like welcome messages, drip campaigns, and regular newsletters. In this tutorial, you will create a simple system that automatically welcomes new subscribers and sends them updates about technology, all with the help of AI.

Deploying a multimodal RAG application with Gemma 3 and CircleCI on GKE

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has transformed how applications interact with Large Language Models (LLMs). RAGs ground LLM responses in external knowledge, improves accuracy, and reduces hallucinations. But traditional RAG systems have a significant limitation: they only process text. Multimodal RAG addresses this limitation by processing and understanding multiple data types (text, images, and potentially audio).

Deployment of AWS Step Functions with Lambda and CircleCI

In this guide, you will build and deploy a serverless data processing workflow using AWS Step Functions and AWS Lambda. This approach enables you to orchestrate discrete processing tasks in a scalable and cost-efficient way, leveraging the event-driven architecture that AWS offers. You will begin by creating individual Lambda functions that handle specific tasks in your data pipeline.

Building community-first brands ft. Edreece Arghandiwal, CMO & Co-Founder of Oakland Roots SC

In this special episode of The Confident Commit, Rob Zuber sits down with Edreece Arghandiwal, CMO and Co-Founder of Oakland Roots Soccer Club, for an inspiring conversation about building purpose-driven organizations from the ground up. Edreece shares how the Roots challenged traditional sports business models by putting community first, turning a simple question—"Why isn't there professional soccer in Oakland?"—into a movement that raised $3.5 million from 6,000+ community investors with zero paid advertising.

Harness GitOps: Scaling Argo CD with Enterprise-Grade Control

Harness GitOps extends Argo CD by preserving its reconciliation loop while adding governance, audit, and RBAC through the GitOps Agent’s secure connection to Harness SaaS. Teams can choose Harness-managed or bring-your-own Argo CD and scale to multi-cluster fleets with unified dashboards, promotion pipelines, and true rollback, while Git stays the single source of truth.

Build an automated ETL pipeline for cryptocurrency data with CircleCI

To stay ahead in the crypto world, you need latest information about cryptocurrencies. With so many coins out there and prices changing all the time, knowing which ones are doing the best gives you a quick snapshot of what’s hot right now. Whether you’re investing, just curious, or trying to understand the market better, this information makes it easier to spot trends and make smarter decisions.

Audit log streaming for real-time security visibility in your CI/CD pipeline

Security and compliance teams face a critical challenge: by the time they discover suspicious activity in their development pipeline, it’s often too late to prevent damage. Manual audit log requests create bottlenecks that delay incident response, and gaps in visibility leave organizations vulnerable to insider threats and compliance violations. If your team struggles with any of these issues, you need a systematic approach to real-time audit monitoring.
