New Mac Mini - Hackdot

Finally! My 5 year old Mac mini is getting long in the tooth. I know most people aren't going to be excited but as a iOS dev the Mac mini makes a GREAT CI server.

This seems like a pretty important use case. Beside builds, are there other core iOS dev use cases like automated UI testing? I've only done a little bit of iOS development circa 2011.

Yes, we do builds, automated UI testing, and store/Test Flight build and deployment from my Mac mini for our startup.

What software do you use to run the CI server?

A combination of Xcode command line tools(clang/Xcode server/xcodebuiltool), gitlab CI runner, and fast lane ruby gems to script the continuous deployment parts.
