Case Study: Waitrose & Partners achieves faster, more secure mobile app CI/CD with Mindera and Bitrise

Waitrose & Partners cuts build times by 40% with Mindera

Waitrose & Partners, a major British supermarket chain, faced significant challenges with its aging Jenkins-based CI/CD infrastructure for its mobile apps. The on-premise servers were slowing down, could not support the latest macOS and Xcode versions, and required manual steps that caused build and release delays. Mindera was engaged to migrate the pipeline to a more modern and efficient platform, Bitrise.

Mindera successfully migrated both the iOS and Android CI/CD pipelines from Jenkins to the Bitrise platform. The solution streamlined the build, test, and release processes, integrating tools like Fastlane and BrowserStack. This migration resulted in a more than 40% reduction in build times, eliminated manual intervention for app signing and releases, and provided a stable, secure, and automated platform for Waitrose.
