EdTech Release Automation case studyOverview
The brief.
A fast-growing edtech platform was shipping on a three-week cadence with no automated gates. We introduced CI quality gates and trunk-based delivery, cutting the cycle to two days with zero critical escapes.

Critical escapes
The challenge
What was in the way.
Slow, risky releases
Manual QA and nightly deploys meant every release was a fire drill and regressions reached students.
No safety net
A single broken commit could take the platform down for hours with no automated rollback.
The solution
How we solved it.
We built a trunk-based CI/CD pipeline with axe accessibility gates, k6 performance checks and Playwright e2e suites - red blocks the merge.
“Releases went from an all-hands event to a quiet Tuesday.”
Outcome
The bottom line.
From 3-week releases to 2-day deploys - quality gates in CI.
