Apr 1, 2025

April 2025: LedgerHQ/ledger-live CI/CD enhancements focused on reliability, speed, and maintainability for mobile end-to-end testing. Key features delivered include macOS runner optimization for mobile E2E tests, with updated labels, a performance pool option, and removal of an unused setup-toolchain step to simplify the pipeline. Allure report handling improvements gate report generation and uploads on successful test completion, reducing wasted work when jobs fail or are canceled. These changes delivered faster feedback loops, lower CI costs, and more stable test outcomes, enabling more confident and frequent releases. Demonstrated technologies include CI/CD optimization, pipeline automation, test orchestration, and data-driven quality signals.

Dec 1, 2024

December 2024 — LedgerHQ/ledger-live: Major enhancements to CI/CD reliability, release automation, and code quality tooling. Delivered robust CI/CD workflow improvements (stable head-branch checkout in turbo-affected pipelines, caching defaults, refreshed runners) and integrated release workflow steps, significantly reducing release risk and manual toil. Strengthened release automation by ensuring release triggers correctly handle refs as strings and by wiring release-final into prepare workflows. Migrated code quality tooling to SonarCloud with hardened configuration and performance tuning, increasing memory for analysis, expanding language coverage, and refining project and path configurations. Result: faster, more reliable releases, higher confidence in code quality, and clearer visibility into quality metrics across the codebase.

Oct 1, 2024

This month focused on strengthening Ledger Live's release governance and enabling rapid, safe remediation of production issues. Implemented a patch-level changeset policy and a hotfix workflow to consolidate release governance, ensuring patch-level changesets are enforced for hotfixes, patch versions are reserved for hotfixes, and regular development cannot perform patch-level bumps. Added capability to create hotfixes from specific released versions (LLM/LLD) with a target version to ensure hotfixes are based on stable code. These changes set the foundation for faster MTTR, reduced release risk, and improved stability across deployments.
