micsapp Guidewire CI Integration
Overview
Configure continuous integration and continuous deployment pipelines for Guidewire InsuranceSuite projects using GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or Azure DevOps.
Prerequisites
- Git repository with Guidewire project
- CI/CD platform access (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or Azure DevOps)
- Guidewire Cloud Console access for deployment credentials
- JDK 17 and Gradle available in CI environment
Instructions
Step 1: GitHub Actions Workflow
Create .github/workflows/guidewire-ci.yml with jobs for build, test (with PostgreSQL service), security scan (CodeQL + OWASP), and environment-gated deployments to sandbox and production.
Step 2: Jenkins Pipeline
Create a Jenkinsfile with parallel code quality stages (Gosu check + SpotBugs), test reporting with JUnit and JaCoCo, and manual approval gate for production deployment.
Step 3: Gradle Build Configuration
Configure build.gradle with JaCoCo (70% coverage minimum), OWASP dependency check (fail on CVSS 7.0+), SpotBugs, and a unified ci task that runs all checks.
Step 4: Test Utilities
Create a CITestBase class with database health checks, test data cleanup for TEST-* prefixed accounts, and conditional slow-test skipping in CI.
Step 5: Deployment Script
Write deploy-to-cloud.sh that authenticates via OAuth2, uploads the configuration package ZIP, and polls deployment status until complete or failed.

Output
- GitHub Actions workflow file
- Jenkins pipeline configuration
- Gradle build with CI tasks
- Test utilities for CI environment
- Cloud deployment script
Error Handling
| Error | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Build timeout | Long-running tests | Increase timeout or parallelize |
| Database connection failed | Service not ready | Add health check wait |
| Deployment failed | Invalid package | Check build artifacts |
| Test flakiness | Race conditions | Add proper test isolation |

Examples
Basic usage: Apply guidewire ci integration to a standard project setup with default configuration options.
Advanced scenario: Customize guidewire ci integration for production environments with multiple constraints and team-specific requirements.
