New feature: Handling errors in actions

New feature: Handling errors in actions
The principle of Continuous Integration is simple: make changes > test for errors > integrate with code if everything is okay / fix bugs and test again if something's wrong. In Buddy, these tasks are performed by pipeline actions. If something goes wrong (e.g. the tests fail), Buddy will stop the pipeline and mark the responsible action as failed. One should never merge a branch with errors: this is an impassable rule that should never be violated and this is why we never allowed the pipeline to continue if an action was failing.

Introducing: Integration management scopes

Introducing: Integration management scopes
In response to popular (and long-drawn) demand, we're happy to announce that it is now possible to define the management scope of integrations with third party applications. Until now, only the integration owner could add and edit actions that required an integration. For example, if a company had an account on Amazon, only the user with the access data to that account could add actions with AWS services.

With this week's release, you can install Buddy on multiple nodes connected in one instance to build, test and release your software faster. In other words, Buddy on-premises now supports workers.
