In this video, AdaCore’s Mark Hermling explores how CI/CD can help embedded software teams escape slow, hardware-dependent development cycles and build faster feedback loops into their workflows.
He explains why long delays between writing code, testing, and receiving results can create a “haystack” of bugs, defects, and unresolved work.
The video highlights practical ways teams can improve their software development lifecycle, from automation and pipeline discipline to smarter software design, abstraction layers, host-based testing, and better use of compute resources. Hermling also encourages teams to assess what is slowing them down, automate more of their testing, and invest in processes that keep embedded software continuously deployable with greater confidence.
