Automated testing and deployment is not just for big companies. A simple pipeline pays for itself within weeks.
CI/CD stands for continuous integration and continuous delivery. In plain terms: every time a developer saves a change, the computer checks it and, if all is well, can publish it automatically.
What a basic pipeline does
- Runs automated tests on every change
- Checks code style and common mistakes
- Builds the application
- Deploys to a staging site for review, then to production with one click
Benefits you will notice
- Bugs are caught before customers see them
- Releases become small, frequent and low-stress
- No more manual uploads over FTP
- A clear history of who changed what and when
Tools to look at
GitHub Actions, GitLab CI and Bitbucket Pipelines are all easy to start with, and most hosts and cloud platforms integrate with them.
Start small
Begin with just tests and an automatic deploy to a staging server. Add more checks as the project grows.
The bottom line
A simple pipeline is one of the best investments a small team can make. We set one up as part of every project we hand over.
