Trigger a TravisCI software build automatically

One trigger kicks off a build in TravisCI, so your team doesn't have to start it by hand every time.

How the work actually flows

A straight line.

The problem it solves

Kicking off a build by hand means someone has to remember to do it, which slows down how fast your team can test and ship changes. That small delay adds up when it happens several times a day.

Who it fits

Software teams that use TravisCI to build and test their code.

How it works

  1. The process is started on demand
  2. A build request is sent to TravisCI
  3. TravisCI builds and tests your project automatically
  4. The result is available in TravisCI when it's done
What you get

Builds started the instant you need them

You can kick off a build in TravisCI instantly with a single trigger, no manual steps required.

What you get

A completed software build ready for testing or deployment.

What you need

A TravisCI account connected to your code repository.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
