  • Abstract
    Three release engineers share their perspectives on quality metrics for releases and on continuous delivery´s benefits and limitations. They also discuss release-engineering job skills, the required mind-set, the role of education, and cultural change, and they recommend future research areas. The Web extra at http://youtu.be/O3cJQTZXAI8 is an audio recording of Davide Falessi speaking with Guest Editors Bram Adams and Foutse Khomh about release engineering and its value to the software industry.
