Continuous delivery picks up where continuous integration ends, and automates application delivery to selected environments, including production, development, and testing environments. Continuous delivery is an automated way to push code changes to these environments. One of the aims of continuous integration is to ensure that the application is always functional and ready for deployment. When the test environment does not accurately represent a live or production environment, this is impossible to verify. Software developers should construct a "staging environment" that replicates the conditions of live production. If automated testing discovers a conflict between new and existing code, CI makes it easier to fix those bugs quickly and often. By standardizing builds, developing tests, and automating deployments, teams can devote more time to improving applications, and less time on the technical processes of delivering code to different environments. Continuous Integration is a process of integrating code changes from multiple developers in a single project many times. Continue…
