This practice is crucial for the early detection of bugs and errors, promoting a faster feedback loop, encouraging collaboration, and improving code quality.

CD is then introduced as an extension of CI, focusing on automating the deployment process while ensuring that the software is always in a releasable state. This practice enables rapid and reliable releases of software in different environments, reducing the risk of deployment errors and enabling faster time-to-market.

This chapter also looked at the practical aspects of setting up CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, a popular workflow automation tool. It explained how...
