CICDintegraatio

CICDintegraatio, also known as CI/CD integration, refers to the practice of combining Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery/Deployment (CD) pipelines within software development. Continuous Integration is the practice of frequently merging code changes from multiple developers into a shared repository, followed by automated builds and tests. Continuous Delivery automates the process of preparing code changes for release to production, ensuring that software can be reliably released at any time. Continuous Deployment takes this a step further by automatically deploying every change that passes all stages of the pipeline to production.

The integration of these practices aims to streamline the software development lifecycle, reduce manual errors, and accelerate the delivery of high-quality software. By automating the build, test, and deployment processes, teams can identify and fix issues earlier, leading to faster feedback loops and more frequent releases. This integration typically involves using specialized tools and platforms that orchestrate the various stages of the CI/CD pipeline. Key benefits include improved code quality, increased development speed, reduced operational costs, and enhanced collaboration among development and operations teams. Successful CICDintegraatio requires a cultural shift towards automation, collaboration, and a focus on continuous improvement throughout the software delivery process.
