What is CI/CD ?

This article examines the meaning and significance of CI/CD in software development, emphasizing its role in improving the efficiency and reliability of software releases through automation and continuous integration and delivery.


CI/CD is a software development practice to improve the speed and quality of software releases by introducing automation into the stages of application development. Its main properties are continuous integration, continuous delivery, and continuous deployment.

Continuous Integration (CI) refers to the practice of merging code changes from multiple developers into a shared repository frequently, often several times a day. The main goal of CI is to detect integration issues early on by automatically building and testing the software whenever new changes are added to the codebase. This ensures that the codebase remains stable and functional throughout the development process.

Continuous Delivery (CD) is a way of developing software that focuses on regularly and dependably delivering updates. It involves using automation to handle different steps in the process, like building, testing, and deploying applications. By using CD, development teams can make sure that their software is always ready to be released, whenever needed. CD helps to speed up the feedback process, lowers the chances of mistakes and deployment problems, and encourages teamwork and openness among team members.

Continuous Deployment (CD) is an extension of Continuous Delivery that takes automation a step further. It automatically deploys software changes to production environments after passing the required tests. This eliminates the need for manual intervention and ensures a smooth deployment process. CD enables organizations to release software updates rapidly, providing new features, bug fixes, and improvements to end-users consistently and reliably. By automating the deployment process, CD reduces the risk of human errors, minimizes the time and effort required for manual deployments, and ensures that users always have access to the latest version of the software.

Binary Tree

Binary Tree is a Non-Linear data structure which has atmost 2 child . A Binary tree is represented by a pointer to the topmost node (commonly known as the “root”) of the tree. If the tree is empty, then the value of the root is NULL. Each node of a Binary Tree contains the following parts:
