Atlassian Starter License

without comments

I’m back at the University of Sydney doing some independent Agile and TDD coaching. The first thing that I wanted to set up was a CI server. My initial recommendation was Atlassian’s Bamboo product, which may come as a surprise given that I used to work for ThoughtWorks – the makers of Cruise – for the last three years. But I must confess, I have never actually used Cruise on a project, it was always Bamboo, Hudson, or Luntbuild. So I figured stick with what you know.

I thought the research group would be strapped for cash and considered setting up Hudson, but Atlassian’s Starter license gives you access to their products for an amazingly low price of $10 per product. It was easy to convince the group to use Bamboo for that price. Best of all the proceeds of the purchase price go towards a charity called Room to Read. Thank you Atlassian for your generosity!
