How to Release Secured Mobile App Builds Between Teams in Mobile DevSecOps Build System

Last updated January 1, 2024 by Appdome

In the mobile industry, the development process is shared between different teams – Development, QA and Production. Each team passes the final product to the next team in the chain. Sharing tested and working fused builds is the way to achieve a smooth process from development all the way to production.

This Knowledge Base article describes how to share your fused builds with other teams and enhance your workflow. This feature is known as Flex-Release – Shareable Fused Apps.

How to Share Secured Mobile App Builds between Teams – with Flex Release

Appdome is a no-code mobile app security platform designed to add security features in mobile apps.

Appdome’s no-code mobile app security platform offers mobile developers, DevSec and security professionals a convenient and reliable way to protect Android and iOS apps without coding. When a user clicks “Build My App,” Appdome leverages a microservice architecture filled with 1000s of security plugins, and an adaptive code generation engine that matches the correct required plugins to the development environment, frameworks, and methods in each app.

Using Appdome, there are no development or coding prerequisites to build secured apps. There is no SDK and no library to manually code or implement in the app. The Appdome technology adds the relevant standards, frameworks, stores, and logic to the app automatically, with no manual development work at all.

Among many other features, Appdome-DEV provides the ability to share fused builds across all teams. This way, Appdome users avoid doing the same thing for each app in each team, which is frustrating and error-prone.
