Build and Testing
Explore how to build and test code within Azure Pipelines, focusing on efficient continuous integration and delivery processes. Understand building deployable code artifacts, running tests at multiple stages, and ensuring stability in deployment pipelines to maintain high-quality application releases.
We'll cover the following...
Introduction
The word “fast” is defined as “moving or capable of moving at a high speed.” High speed is the key takeaway from a Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CICD) pipeline, but going fast isn’t everything. In CI/CD, you must also be efficient. You must work in a way that doesn’t break the environment, the code, or the application that’s being deployed.
Efficiency, or a way to achieve maximum productivity combined with moving quickly or fast, is what makes a CI/CD pipeline like Azure Pipelines so efficient.
Azure Pipelines are a way to automatically build, test, and deploy code in any environment, including on-prem and cloud. The premise behind Azure Pipeline is three-fold:
-
Build: Packaging code in a central location. A ...
