Launchable careers

Launchable’s core technology is a machine learning engine that predicts the likelihood of a failure for each test case given a change in the source code. This allows you to run only the meaningful subset of tests, in the order that minimizes the feedback delay.

Today, most software projects simply run all the tests all the time, in no particular order. When you are working on a small change in a large project, this is incredibly wasteful. Intuitively, you know that only a small subset of the tests are relevant, given the area you are changing, yet there’s no easy way to know exactly what tests are relevant.

Launchable’s ML engine learns this by studying the past changes and their test results. Raw information from Git repositories and test results from CI systems are refined into more meaningful data, then they are used to train a engine. The refining process also removes sensitive information, so your security people are happy.
