Dive into Zuul – Gated commit system
Zuul is software developed by the OpenStack community. It was developed as an efficient gated commit system, allowing projects to merge patches only after they pass a series of tests. It reduces the probability of breaking the master branch, for instance when unit tests or functional tests no longer pass on the tip of master. Fabien Boucher explains how Zuul works and clarifies some concepts through simple examples.
