Sauce Labs Inc. reappeared on the industry radar this morning after raising $15 million to capitalize on the accelerating adoption of continuous integration principles in the traditional enterprise. The investment will help fuel the development of its flagship testing service, which provides a cloud-based environment for organizations to test their customer-facing applications.

The three-year-old startup is offering to help development teams extend their existing projects to its platform with a tunneling mechanism that makes it possible to enforce networking and access policies beyond the corporate firewall. Once the connection has been established, testing workflows can be moved without any modifications thanks to built-in support for over 450 web and mobile technologies.

According to the startup, that integration can enable organizations to easily make its service a part of their continuous integration pipelines. In such a setup, a developer can write an update for their application, test it for bugs and optimization and quickly merge the finished code into the central repository that feeds the production environment.

More and more traditional organizations are moving away from their traditional development methodologies to the new approach of rapid-fire iteration in pursuit of faster results. That has translated into a surge of business for the startup and other continuous integration vendors such as CloudBees Inc., the commercial distributor of Jenkins, which bagged $23.5 million in its own round of funding just last week.

Both intend to spend the capital to rev up the adoption of their respective offerings, which is already immensity popular thanks to the explosion of interest in accelerating release cycles. Sauce Labs will also allocate some of the new funds to grow support for Appium, its open-source automation framework for mobile devices, and establish an overseas data center at an undisclosed location (presumably somewhere in Europe) to serve international clients with less latency.

Existing investor Toba Capital, notable for backing data integration powerhouse Alteryx Inc. and Cloudant Inc. (which was acquired by IBM last February), provided the capital. The round brings Sauce Labs’ total raised to a healthy $36 million.
