Hydra is a tool for continuous integration testing and software release that uses a purely functional language to describe build jobs and their dependencies. Continuous integration is a simple technique to improve the quality of the software development process. An automated system continuously or periodically checks out the source code of a project, builds it, runs tests, and produces reports for the developers. Thus, various errors that might accidentally be committed into the code base are automatically caught. | |||
The official Hydra servers provide pre-built binary packages to speed up the update time for Nixpgs: Users do not have to compile them on their own computers. | |||
