Here, we'll show a whole workflow, from development to production, where we deploy Docker on CentOS 7 and Ubuntu 16.04 using the TDD technique. Using Git branches, Chef tools, Test Kitchen, linting, and ServerSpec, we'll go through each and every step of a small project led by TDD principles. We'll do this to achieve maximum code quality among teams, from the development phase in the beginning to the final production environment.
