Summary

In this chapter, we completed the CD pipeline, which means we can finally release the application. The following are the key takeaways from this chapter:

  • When it comes to CD, two environments are indispensable: staging and production.
  • Non-functional tests are an essential part of the CD process and should always be considered as pipeline stages.
  • Non-functional tests that don't fit the CD process should be used as periodic tasks to monitor the overall performance trends.
  • Applications should always be versioned; however, the versioning strategy depends on the type of application.
  • A minimal CD pipeline can be implemented as a sequence of scripts that ends with two stages: release and smoke test.
  • The smoke test should always be added as the last stage of the CD pipeline to check whether the release was successful.

In the next chapter, we will look at some of the advanced aspects of the CD pipeline.
