Delivering Mobile Apps Faster With Bitrise CI And LambdaTest

Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) are integral parts of the DevOps cycle. It automates the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) and allows developers and testers to ship quality products at a brisk pace. Mobile developers build apps for the world’s largest platforms, where millions of users work, connect, and play.However, teams still encounter friction when performing different types of tests to automate and scale mobile app releases.

For example, testing for numerous devices, failing builds, and manually sending updates to testers can be tedious. As a result, it can slow down both developers and testers. So, how can you speed up this process? To help accelerate the development of mobile apps, we are excited to announce the integration of Bitrise with LambdaTest. Using Bitrise and LambdaTest integration, you can perform Appium testing of mobile apps over LambdaTest’s real device cloud.
