A CI/CD pipeline is a series of steps that streamline the software delivery process. CI/CD improves app development using monitoring and automation. This is particularly useful when it comes to integration and continuous testing, which are typically difficult to perform, time-consuming, and require the creation of stubs and drivers. Automated pipelines can help prevent errors that result from manual processes, allow for rapid product iterations, and provide consistent feedback during the development process.
Not all CI and CD pipelines are built equal. Their aim is to generate accurate, reliable products quickly, with comprehensive feedback across the development cycle — so accuracy, reliability, and speed are at the heart of an effective pipeline.
1. Speed: Continuous integration must be fast with instant feedback, or flow is disrupted and productivity tanks.
2. Accuracy: Automating the deployment process requires pinpoint accuracy to avoid human interference.
3. Reliability: The pipeline must be reliable, with watertight testing code and stable output.
