Build automation: Tools, Servers & Continuous integration and continuous delivery

Build automation is the practice of building software systems in a relatively unattended fashion. The build is configured to run with minimized or no software developer interaction and without using a developer's personal computer. Build automation encompasses the act of configuring the build system and the resulting system.
