Today, we are thrilled to announce not one but two new features to illuminate your day! Introducing Merge Protections 🛡️ Designed to complement GitHub’s branch protection and rulesets, Merge Protections allows for advanced customization and control over your merge workflows, addressing the specific needs of your projects. While GitHub’s native branch protection and rulesets provide a strong foundation, their customization options can be somewhat limited. This is where Mergify steps in. Merge Protections offers the flexibility to define nuanced conditions that the native system can’t handle. Advanced Conditions: Create highly specific rules based on any pull request metadata. Dependencies: Manage dependencies between pull requests seamlessly. Scheduled Merges: Ensure merges happen at the right time. Freeze: Schedule one-time or recurring total or partial freezes for your repository. This powerful feature is available straight from your Mergify dashboard. For more details, check out our documentation: https://lnkd.in/eHC2bNsY Announcing the Mergify Chrome Extension! 🎉 We’re also excited to launch the Mergify Chrome Extension! This handy tool adds new buttons to your GitHub UI, giving you fast access to Mergify commands and shortcuts to your dashboard. It’s light, non-intrusive, and designed to enhance your workflow effortlessly. Ready to give it a try? Install it from your dashboard and experience a smoother GitHub experience! We’d love to hear your thoughts and any improvements you’d like to see. Feel free to share your feedback anytime! 💬

What a month of April for the Mergify team! On April 11, we organized the very first edition of CI/CDay, a brand-new European event dedicated to CI/CD. Around a hundred people, including our 6 speakers and 6 sponsors, came from all over Europe to take part in the festivities! Shout out to Mathieu Poissard, who managed everything from the idea to the complete organization of the event. The following week, we followed up with Devoxx France, Mergify's first exhibition. In addition to inspiring conferences and meetings, it was also an opportunity for the whole team to get together!

🚨 Flaky Tests alert! Almost every development team has to deal with them 🤬 So insidious, so frustrating... 🥷 If they're so annoying, it's largely because they're hard to identify. And to correctly identify one, you need to know what a flaky test is. In these slides, we'll explain: ✅ what a flaky test is,  ✅ the different types of flaky test,  ✅ and the root causes of this problem. 

🤖 Automation at every level ! ✅ In our previous post, we talked about the different types of tests and their specific uses. ⚙️ Now that we know how to classify them, why not automate them? On the whole, automation has always brought comfort to software development, so why do without it? Especially for a task as important as testing. In these slides, we explain how to automate your test battery using libraries, frameworks or CI/CD tools 👇

Software Testing 🧑🔬 Love them or hate them, they play a key role in software development, especially when it comes to CI/CD. Today, we take a look at test classification. There's a wide range of tests out there, and each has its own specific use. This carousel will help you understand the importance of tests, as well as their detailed classification.

NEW BLOG POST! 📰 Continuous Delivery is the practice of ensuring that your code is always in a release-ready state. 🎖️ It takes the principles of CI a step further, providing that your code integrates well and is always ready to be deployed. However, unlike Continuous Deployment, Continuous Delivery doesn't automatically deploy every change. Instead, it ensures that you can deploy every change at any time, leaving the final decision in the hands of the development team. ✅ To better understand the ins and outs of continuous delivery, we invite you to read our article on the subject. 👇
