Developing in the Fastlane -> How LookLive uses Fastlane to automate and speed up the app deployment process

- 2. www.looklive.com@donnywals A typical deploy day.. Finalize code Hurry to write some tests Run tests Upload to Crashlytics Update release notes Upload to iTunes Connect Wait… Update (localized) app info Update (localized) screenshots Submit build Wait for review… Archive build Update build number Update release notes
- 3. www.looklive.com@donnywals That’s a lot of steps And I actually forgot a couple..
- 4. www.looklive.com@donnywals Fastlane to the rescue fastlane lets you define and run your deployment pipelines for different environments. It helps you unify your app’s release process and automate the whole process. fastlane connects all fastlane tools and third party tools, like CocoaPods and Gradle.

- 27. www.looklive.com@donnywals Nice, but we can do more
- 28. www.looklive.com@donnywals Next level • Use snapshot to automate localised screenshots • Run fastlane on a Jenkins slave • Automate submitting for review
- 29. www.looklive.com@donnywals And that’s how we brought deployment to the Fastlane Check out the Fastfile at: https://gist.github.com/donnywals/02da9957696111f99248
