    DevSamurai
    Well suited:
    • Estimation of user stories in agile team.
    • Recording the estimations and events directly to JIRA.
    • Estimations can be done without leaving JIRA.
    • Best suitable in this pandemic situation as most of the people are working remotely.
    • Different estimation scales are present to adapt as per the team norms for example Fibonacci, T-shirt sizing and custom estimations as well.
    Scenarios where it is less suitable:
    • Where only inbuilt chat box from DevSamurai is used. So synchronization is an issue there.
    • And apart from that a consistent internet connectivity is required.

    Previously, our team used Jenkins. However, since it's a shared deployment resource we don't have admin access. We tried GoCD as it's open source and we really like. We set up our deployment pipeline to run whenever codes are merged to master, run the unit test and revert back if it doesn't pass. Once it's deployed to the staging environment, we can simply do 1-click to deploy the appropriate version to production. We use this to deploy to an on-prem server and also AWS. Some deployment pipelines use custom Powershell script for.Net application, some others use Bash script to execute the docker push and cloud formation template to build elastic beanstalk.

    • Pipeline-as-Code works really well. All our pipelines are defined in yml files, which are checked into SCM.
    • The ability to link multiple pipelines together is really cool. Later pipelines can declare a dependency to pick up the build artifacts of earlier ones.
    • Agents definition is really great. We can define multiple different kinds of environments to best suit our diverse build systems.

    Cons
    DevSamurai
    • Live chat box feature need to be improvised as it still not robust.
    • Integration module should be flexible enough to stick with other workflow tools.

    GoCD is easier to setup, but harder to customize at runtime. There's no way to trigger a pipeline with custom parameters.
    Jenkins is more flexible at runtime. You can define multiple user-provided parameters so when user needs to trigger a build, there's a form for him/her to input the parameters.

    Return on Investment
    DevSamurai
    • Estimation of user stories and updating the JIRA is automated and hence resulted in reduced efforts in poker planning.
    • No need to be present under same roof for estimation, and hence a flexibility which is much required in this scenario.
    • Clients can have a clear and better picture of estimation at any time with all statistics and hence customer sees more transparency.

    • ROI has been good since it's open source
    • Settings.xml need to be backed up periodically. It contains all the settings for your pipelines! We accidentally deleted before and we have to restore and re-create several missing pipelines
    • More straight forward use of API and allows filtering e.g., pull all pipelines triggered after this date
