CI/CD Setup · Exeter

CI/CD Setup in Exeter

Automated build, test and deployment pipelines for Exeter teams. Pipelines succeed or fail on the test suite: a slow one gets bypassed, and a flaky one that fails randomly trains developers to rerun until it passes — at which point the pipeline is theatre rather than a safeguard.

Why this comes up

The problem

Deployment is a documented sequence someone follows by hand, it goes wrong occasionally, and only one person is confident doing it.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Pipeline stages defined so failures are obvious and quick to diagnose
  • Test suite time kept short enough that nobody is tempted to skip it
  • Flaky tests fixed or removed, since they destroy confidence in every result
  • Secrets managed by the platform rather than stored in configuration files
  • Deployments made reversible, so a bad release is a rollback not an incident
  • Environments provisioned identically, removing works-on-staging failures

CI/CD Setup in Exeter — common questions

How fast should the pipeline be?
Fast enough that a developer waits for it rather than switching to something else. Beyond roughly ten minutes people context-switch and the feedback loop breaks; beyond half an hour they start looking for ways round it. Speed is a correctness property here.
What do flaky tests actually cost?
The value of the whole suite. Once failures are routinely dismissed as flakiness, genuine failures get dismissed too, and the pipeline stops catching anything. Deleting an unreliable test is better than keeping one that teaches the team to ignore red builds.
How should secrets be handled?
Through the platform's own secret storage, injected at run time, never committed. Anything that has been in a repository should be treated as exposed and rotated, including in private repositories and deleted commits — both of which get shared more than people expect.
Do we need continuous deployment?
Continuous integration, almost certainly. Deploying automatically to production suits teams with strong test coverage and quick rollback, and is a poor idea without them. Automating up to a manual release button captures most of the benefit at much lower risk.
Do you work with businesses across Devon?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout South West, including Exeter and the surrounding Devon area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Exeter businesses do you usually work with?
Field service scheduling and routing for businesses covering a wide rural patch, plus professional services systems. Beyond that we work across Higher Education, Professional Services, Healthcare, Retail and Environmental Science.
Do you cover the areas around Exeter?
Yes — we work throughout South West, including Plymouth, Truro, Bristol. Exeter is an urban area of roughly 130,000+, and we take on work across the wider Devon region rather than the city boundary alone.
