Question - Why and When to use CICD Pipeline?
Answer -
CI enables to detect the errors at early stage or when code is being integrated. CI is a set of principles that helps developers to manage code integrations and detect early stage bugs and rectify them.
CD ensures the automation of delivering new code with minimum efforts. Some extra checks are also performed during CD process such as performance test for production environment.
Continuous deployment is most critical stage in pipeline. In this process code changes are automatically deployed to production environment where end customers or users are using the application. It is achieved by taking the benefit of continuous delivery by automating new stage (Production) in the pipeline. There is very less human interaction at this stage and it helps to reduce delay in making code changes live.
