Guide: Regular Builds in PMI-ACP FDD

Regular Builds are an integral part of the Feature Driven Development (FDD) process and are an important topic in the PMI-ACP exam.
What it is: Regular Builds are a practice where the software is compiled and tested frequently, ideally on a daily basis. The aim is to timely detect and fix bugs, thereby improving software quality and reducing development time.
Why it's important: Regular builds provide instant feedback about the system’s current state, facilitating prompt error detection and resolution. It ensures code integration is done continuously leading to a clean build always available for review, testing, or release.
How it works: In a regular build mechanism, developers submit changes into a shared repository. Then a server automatically builds and tests the system which aids developers to notice if the changes caused any errors.
Answering questions: When answering questions regarding regular builds on the exam, emphasize on the benefits such as risk mitigation, faster feedback, and maintaining a ready-to-release build.
Exam Tips: Know the importance of regular builds in risk management, and understand the mechanism behind it, including the role of continuous integration. Be familiar with the benefits of regular builds when explaining their importance in an Agile environment.

Regular Builds practice test

In FDD, regular builds are crucial. A build refers to the process of converting files and other assets that the project needs to function into a software application. Regular builds provide an opportunity to verify that all components of the system work together as expected. The build should be comprehensive, covering all features developed since the last build. This practice helps to identify integration issues or dependencies between features early on so that they can be addressed immediately.
