Renovate is an open-source tool for developers and DevOps that automatically creates PRs for all types of dependency updates. Renovate PRs contain crowdsourced tests and package adoption data that are used to flag potentially risky updates and enable auto-merging for those that meet user-defined conditions. For example:
Integrating automated dependency updates into software projects is critical because with time, dependencies in applications tend to fall further and further behind from the latest versions as the dependencies are not properly managed. This typically exposes the applications to ever-increasing technical debt and risk over time. Besides that, the application is missing out on new features and bug fixes, has lower agility for handling unexpected issues (including zero-day vulnerabilities), and contains an increased risk of being exposed to publicly known vulnerabilities (around 90% of newly disclosed vulnerabilities are in non-latest versions).
