Content Summary

JetBrains CI/CD survey of 805 participants found 62% use GitHub Actions for personal projects and 41% in organizations. Jenkins and GitLab remain heavily used in enterprises. 73% of respondents report not using AI in CI/CD workflows. 32% of organizations use two different CI/CD tools.

Reliability: Medium

Industry survey from a reputable vendor but with self-selection bias in the respondent pool.

Relevance: Medium

Provides CI/CD tool usage data but measures tool popularity among developers, not CI adoption rates across repositories.

Bias Assessment

Domain Rating Rationale
Missing Data Some concerns 805 respondents is a modest sample, and demographics skew toward JetBrains users.
Measurement Some concerns Self-reported survey data may not reflect actual CI configuration practices.
Selective Reporting Low risk Reports a wide range of findings including AI non-adoption.
Randomization N/A Not an RCT.
Protocol Deviation N/A Not an RCT.
Conflict Of Interest Some concerns JetBrains sells TeamCity; survey supports their positioning in the CI market.
