Automação do processo de implantação e testes de um sistema WEB utilizando Docker

Abstract

Increasing the productivity is a daily necessity in the process of growing an organization. In software development, it is worth highlighting the adoption of iterative and incremental processes to increase productivity, promoting ideas and principles of agile development. Continuous integration is a practice that can be adopted for integrating new functionalities into the system. The Integrated Management System of Food and Nutrition Units (SIGUAN) was software developed during the execution of an extension project at UFRN. However, when in production phase the system has not received any new updates or maintenance due to its complexity and the possibility of impact in the part already in operation. Considering such problem and the need to adopt agile methodologies in software development, this work aims to automate the SIGUAN’s implantation process, using technologies that facilitate the configuration of the deployment environment, ensuring through software testing a higher quality of software. To achieve such goal, it was necessary to create a software testing module using Mockito and configuring both production and testing environment using Docker. The automatic deployment process is achieved by configuring the Jenkins tool. The evaluation of this work was done through the creation of a new module, whose name is Clientele Analysis. The results of the evaluation showed that the automatic implementation of SIGUAN achieved the expected objectives.
