Performance Notes
Build times vary based on selected environment and resources
Matrix builds can increase total execution time
Caching dependencies improves build speed
Parallel job execution reduces wall-clock time
Hosted infrastructure may have queue delays on free tier
Security Notes
Use encrypted environment variables for secrets
Restrict deployment to trusted branches
Limit access to repositories and API tokens
Regularly rotate sensitive credentials
Review build scripts to prevent injection vulnerabilities
Monitoring Analytics
Web dashboard shows current build status
CLI provides job status and history
Notifications for success/failure events
Logs for detailed failure analysis
APIs for automated monitoring and reporting
Code Quality
Define tests in repository and integrate into Travis CI
Use build matrices to validate cross-environment behavior
Check logs and fix failing builds promptly
Use deployment stages for controlled release
Store `.travis.yml` in version control for reproducibility
