Continuous Integration (CI)

Summary

Continuous Integration (CI) is a software development practice where developers frequently integrate their code changes into a shared repository, triggering automated builds and tests.

Detailed Description

Continuous Integration (CI) enables developers to merge their code changes back to the main branch as often as possible. Each integration is automatically verified through automated builds and tests to detect errors quickly. This practice helps ensure that the software remains in a deployable state at all times and reduces integration problems. CI is often complemented by Continuous Delivery (CD), which allows for automated deployment to production after CI processes are successful.
