Penguin

Penguin is a virtual build token and build queue application.

Software development teams using continuous integration often use a build token to ensure that only one member of the team attempts to integrate changes at any one time. They do this by having a physical build token which must be held by the team member performing an integration. A queue of team members waiting to perform an integration is also kept, to ensure everyone takes their turn.

Penguin provides a virtual build token - a "Penguin", and allows for the creation of "Queues" to which team members can add themselves. When they reach the top of the queue they take possession of the "Penguin" and are free to perform their integration.

Penguin for android is a client application which must be configured to talk to a Penguin server. You must run your own instance of a Penguin server and then configure this client to talk to your server by configuring the server url in the settings menu. The Penguin server is hosted on github at https://github.com/markhobson/penguin

Source code for this client is also hosted at https://github.com/markhobson/penguin-android
