CI/CD

CI/CD (continuous integration and continuous delivery) is the automated pipeline that builds, tests and deploys software every time code changes.

In plain words

Instead of manual builds and risky release days, every change is automatically built, tested and scanned; releases go through the same repeatable steps with approvals where needed. It makes releases boring — which is exactly what you want.

When it matters to you

  • Any product in production
  • Teams releasing more than occasionally
  • Handing over a project to another team

Common pitfalls

  • Pipelines only the vendor can run
  • No tests in the pipeline
  • Manual production steps nobody documented
