Abstract
A continuous integration system and method for testing source code is disclosed. In particular, the continuous integration system allows developers to create predefined tasks for builds—each task comprises information to perform a particular build step. In certain embodiments, developers can select a particular task from a set of built-in tasks to add to their build configuration without having to know or determine the underlying build logic required to perform the task (such as the commands needed to execute the task, the artefacts required for the task, etc.). In particular, the disclosed systems and methods allow developers to add one or more predefined tasks in their build configuration, without adding the build logic associated with the task in the configuration file.
