Continuous Integration (CI) is a team programming practice that was developed to help large teams working on the same project to keep all of their code, dependencies, and tests working together as well as possible. The tools developed to facilitate this can also help us to manage our own software projects and keep on top of problems that arise from our own updates, updates in the packages we have used as dependencies, and even updates to R and the operating system in certain cases. Travis.CI is one CI service that is supported in the devtools package. With Travis.CI integrated into your project, the Travis server will build a new virtual computer, install an operating system on it, install R and all of the package dependencies your package needs, then install your package and run its test suite.

Overview of this book
Handling biological data effectively requires an in-depth knowledge of machine learning techniques and computational skills, along with an understanding of how to use tools such as edgeR and DESeq. With the R Bioinformatics Cookbook, you’ll explore all this and more, tackling common and not-so-common challenges in the bioinformatics domain using real-world examples.
This book will use a recipe-based approach to show you how to perform practical research and analysis in computational biology with R. You will learn how to effectively analyze your data with the latest tools in Bioconductor, ggplot, and tidyverse. The book will guide you through the essential tools in Bioconductor to help you understand and carry out protocols in RNAseq, phylogenetics, genomics, and sequence analysis. As you progress, you will get up to speed with how machine learning techniques can be used in the bioinformatics domain. You will gradually develop key computational skills such as creating reusable workflows in R Markdown and packages for code reuse.
By the end of this book, you’ll have gained a solid understanding of the most important and widely used techniques in bioinformatic analysis and the tools you need to work with real biological data.
