- Studying the impact of CI on pull request delivery time in open source projects—a conceptual replication, Guo & Leitner (2019). PeerJ Computer Science. Outcome recorded: successful.
In summary, we consider the replication successful. Our concern regarding trends in the data has largely been alleviated, and an analysis of a control group has led to, at least subtly, different results. However, our results also indicate that PR delivery times seem to more strongly depend on when in the release cycle a PR comes in than on whether or not a CI system is present. This is consistent with the original study, which also reported that the presence of CI only…
