> All code changes are delivered through fully automated pipelines - including tests, security checks, and cloud-ready deployment. Secrets management, code analysis, and third-party dependency validation are built into the process. No manual steps are allowed – [[automation]] ensures reliability, repeatability, and auditability in every release. ^summary #refine everything below About [[Time-to-market]]: > Slow feature delivery causes missed opportunities and loss of competitive advantage. Actually, we aim for daily or even hourly deploys if possible, but weekly is our minimum. We’re diehard proponents of [[CI CD]] for each part of apps we work on to quickly detect faulty changes and avoid releasing broken code. To create our CI / CD processes we use infrastructure as a code approach with tools provided by Git platforms: Github Actions and Gitlab Pipelines. > Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines ensure every code change can be safely deployed at any time, accelerating feedback loops and reducing delivery friction. > CI/CD pipelines ensure every code change can be safely deployed at any time, reducing delivery friction and enabling rapid iteration. We design systems to be deployed at any time—daily, hourly, or on demand. - Fast, flexible releases aligned with business priorities - Less downtime and faster recovery from failure - Your users get value faster, with fewer delays **Tests** It’s simple. Tests are mandatory for every app we work on. QA aims to identify and fill the gaps that impede the team from delivering a good quality product in a reasonable time. > Unit, integration, and end-to-end tests are integrated into the CI pipeline to catch regressions early and support confident releases. #integrate with [[Testing]] [[Predictability]]
