Abstract
Software development has become a critical activity in modern companies. Competitive advantage and customer satisfaction depend strongly on the efficient delivery of new software capabilities. This requires the application of agile methodologies and the use of tools and frameworks which allow a fast and reliable integration and evolution of software systems. Currently, there exist several tools which are used for different purposes all along the software development process. Therefore, it is important for researchers on software engineering and developers to have a wide overview and understanding of the capabilities and limitations of current technology. This paper presents an insightful study of the state of the art on continuous integration and deployment tools. It depicts a taxonomy of current approaches based on their usability during the software development process. Furthermore, it discusses the current challenges and propose a set of study opportunities which could lead further research in this field.
