Continuous integration with Git

- [Instructor] In this chapter, we'll take a look at how Git repositories and GitLab can be used for continuous integration and continuous delivery or CI/CD. CI/CD is an essential tool for teams that want to develop at a faster pace and avoid the hassle of manually integrating and deploying their code changes. The contents of this chapter will give you an understanding of how CI/CD works with Git and GitLab. We'll fist review CI/CD tools and discuss some of the most popular options. We'll then proceed to configure GitLab so that we can create a CI/CD pipeline. We'll walk through the installation of GitLab Runner, a key component in the CI/CD solution provided by GitLab. Once we have a basic pipeline established, we'll expand that pipeline to include quality assurance checks that are executed as part of each build. These quality assurance checks will ensure that our code meets the team's standards and provides reports on defects. After completing this chapter, you'll understand how to integrate Git with a repository manager that can offer your team a CI/CD solution to improve your efficiency.
