Continuous integration system and resource control method

摘要

This continuous integration system comprises a CI server for managing software tests, and a computation cluster for conducting a software test, wherein the CI server comprises: a CI service unit which receives software to be tested, causes the computation cluster to conduct a test using resources calculated by a resource estimation unit, and acquires the test results from the computation cluster; and the resource estimation unit, which estimates resources to be allocated to a test. The resource estimation unit comprises: a test ID calculation unit which assigns a unique test ID to each test to be conducted; a result acquisition unit which acquires information about consumed resources for each test ID; history information including and associating the test IDs of previously conducted tests with the acquired resource information; and an estimation unit which estimates, for each test ID, the resources required to conduct the test associated with the test ID, on the basis of the history information.
