Abstract
As developers, we aim to achieve a stable, high-quality code base. This reduces time spent on debugging and facilitates frequent releases. In this chapter, we will look at three techniques to improve the reliability of our code and make it easier and safer to modify. These techniques are refactoring, unit testing, and continuous integration.
