Create a secure, efficient, application using Apache Maven, Continuum and Archiva with this step-by-step guide for Java developers
By building up a sample application, this book guides developers painlessly through building a project with Maven. This book shows you how to combine Maven with Continuum and Archiva, which will allow you to build an efficient, secure application and make developing in a team easy.
You may already be aware of the pitfalls of 'integration hell' caused by changed code being submitted to repositories by a number of developers. When you implement Continuum in your build, you can easily perform continuous integration, avoiding timely rework and reducing cost and valuable time. You will be able to use Maven more efficiently in a team after you learn how to set up Archiva, Apache's repository manager.
It's easy to quickly get to work with Maven and get the most out of its related tools when you follow the sequential coverage of the sample application in this book. A focus on team environments ensures that you will avoid the pitfalls that are all too common when working in a team. Soon, by learning the best practices of working with Maven, you will have built an effective, secure Java application.

and services for development and automation tools including Apache Maven,
Apache Continuum, Apache Archiva, and Selenium.

written about the Maven 2.0 release in 2005, and has been involved in reviewing
Maven: A Developer's Notebook and Java Power Tools.
Maria Odea Ching
Maria Ching grew up in a small town called Daet, then moved to Manila when
she went to college. She took up Computer Studies at De La Salle University and
graduated in 2005. She started using open source tools from her first job after
graduating and from then on, got interested in everything open source. When she
came to work for Exist, she got assigned in a project doing a lot of development work
in open source projects, specifically Maven, Continuum, and Archiva. Back then,
Continuum and Archiva (formerly named Maven Repository Manager) were still
sub-projects of Maven. Eventually, she became a committer, then a PMC member of
Maven. In 2008, Continuum and Archiva became top-level projects at the ASF and
Deng was elected as PMC Chair of Archiva. She is still currently serving as PMC
Chair of the project and as PMC members of Continuum and Maven.
