Azure CI/CD

Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD) are practices that help teams deliver software more efficiently and reliably. Continuous Integration (CI) : Developers regularly merge their code changes into a central repository. Each integration is automatically built and tested, allowing teams to detect and fix issues early. Continuous Delivery (CD) : Extends CI by automatically deploying the code changes to a staging or production environment. This ensures that the code is always in a deployable state. Azure CI/CD leverages Azure Pipelines to automate the building, testing, and deployment processes, enabling teams to release code faster and with higher quality.
