'''Probo''' is a [[automated testing|user automated testing]] tool that provides [[continuous integration]], workflow organization and [[Software quality assurance|quality assurance]] using the same tool for project managers and developers.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web|title = About Us {{!}} Demonstrate.

Probo expands upon the automated testing functionality of many other CI tools by providing a quality assurance environment where users can manually review the look and feel of changes before committing them.
==History==
Probo was initially developed as a tool for internal use by its parent company, [[Zivtech]], to improve upon the offerings of other CI tools.<ref name=":1231">{{Cite web|title = Philadelphia 100: No. 20 {{!}} Zivtech - Philadelphia Business Journal|url = http://www.bizjournals.com/philadelphia/print-edition/2012/11/02/philadelphia-100-no-20-zivtech.html|website = Philadelphia Business Journal|publisher = [[Bizjournals]]|accessdate = 2015-11-26}}</ref><ref name=":0" /> Once the founders realized that it filled a gap in the industry, they expanded it into a separate offering as a better way to automate the process, involve clients and project managers in the earliest stages, and reduce the cycle of testing and approval.<ref name=":0" />
Probo (by definition: demonstrate, test, approve)<ref>{{Cite web|title = Latin Word Study Tool|url = https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/morph?l=probo&la=la|website = www.perseus.tufts.edu|accessdate = 2015-12-02}}</ref> is an open source tool that has been built to work with [[Drupal]],<ref>{{Cite web|title = Drupal NYC|url = http://www.meetup.com/drupalnyc/events/225871994/|website = |accessdate = 2015-11-26}}</ref> integrates into [[GitHub]] and posts statuses of the builds to GitHub PR. The tool itself is written in [[Node.js]] and powered by [[Docker (software)|Docker]].<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":2" /><ref>{{Cite web|url = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6NwrKWBW2I|title = DrupalCon Barcelona 2015: Introducing Probo.CI|date = |accessdate = |website = |publisher = |last = Drupal Association|first = }}</ref>
Probo was the first CI tool to provide a quality assurance environment where users can manually review their changes.
==Other frameworks==
Based on the original Jenkins for Java, there are now similar tools for other programming frameworks such as:
* [[Buildbot]] — a Python system to automate the compile/test cycle to validate code changes.
* [http://tox.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ Tox] — an automation tool providing packaging, testing and deployment of Python software.
* [[Travis_CI|Travis-CI]] — a distributed [[Continuous_integration|CI]] server which builds tests for open source projects for free.
* Django-Jenkins — [[Django_(web_framework)|Django]] ([[Python (programming language)|Python]]) Web Framework integration with Jenkins.<ref>[https://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-jenkins django-jenkins]</ref>
See [[Continuous_integration|Continuous Integration]] for more.
