Splunk Apps

h1. Continuous Delivery and Testing

You can use a continuous integration tool to automate testing and deploying your Splunk apps. This will allow you to:

# Test your app on several platforms and versions of Splunk automatically (or with a click of a button)

# Easily build clean and consistent copies of your app (avoids the possible corrupt builds made on Developer hosts)

# Deploy the app to your test and production hosts with a single click

Some notes:

To use a created package (spl or tar.gz), make sure to:

* Make a fetch artifact step

* Set the fetch as a file, not a directory (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/go-cd/gocd$20fetch$20zip$20artifact$20%7Csort:relevance/go-cd/Ja5lBT6bpRA/A0ojaSRqBwAJ)
