A CI/CD pipeline automates the entire software delivery process, from development to production.
Typical CI/CD pipeline stages:
- Code: Developers write and commit code.
- Build: Code is compiled and built into an executable.
- Test: Automated tests run (unit, integration, security).
- Release: Code is packaged and prepared for deployment.
- Deploy: Code is deployed to staging or production environments.
- Monitor: Performance and errors are tracked in production.
