Content Summary¶
JetBrains reports from their State of Developer Ecosystem 2025 survey that 55% of developers regularly use CI/CD tools, with GitHub Actions leading at 33% organizational adoption, followed by Jenkins at 28% and GitLab CI at 19%.
Reliability: Medium¶
Based on JetBrains developer survey — large sample but self-selected respondents.
Relevance: Medium¶
Developer-level adoption data (55%) differs from project-level data; useful for cross-referencing.
Bias Assessment¶
| Domain | Rating | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Missing Data | Some concerns | Survey sample may not represent all developers — JetBrains users may skew toward more tool-heavy practices. |
| Measurement | Some concerns | Self-reported survey data subject to recall and selection bias. |
| Selective Reporting | Low risk | JetBrains reports detailed breakdowns including competitors' tools. |
| Randomization | N/A | Survey study, not RCT. |
| Protocol Deviation | N/A | Not an RCT. |
| Conflict Of Interest | Some concerns | JetBrains sells TeamCity CI — interest in CI market data, though they report competitors fairly. |
