Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD)
Integrate QA practices into CI/CD pipelines to deliver software faster without compromising quality.
Welcome to Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD), where we explore how CI/CD pipelines integrate with Quality Assurance (QA) processes to achieve seamless and efficient software delivery.
The course is divided into three comprehensive lessons. Lesson 1 introduces the core principles and benefits of CI/CD in modern software development, establishing a foundation for understanding these essential practices.
In Lesson 2, we examine the strategic integration of QA practices within CI/CD pipelines. You'll learn how to balance rapid deployment with rigorous quality controls, ensuring both speed and reliability in your software delivery process.
Lesson 3 provides hands-on guidance for implementing QA processes in CI/CD environments. We'll explore practical techniques, tools, and best practices for maintaining quality standards while leveraging the speed and efficiency of automated pipelines.
By completing this course, you'll be equipped to design, implement, and optimize QA processes within CI/CD pipelines, enabling your team to deliver high-quality software consistently and efficiently.
