CI/CD (Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery/Deployment) tools help automate the software development lifecycle by streamlining the process of building, testing, and deploying code. These tools enable development teams to integrate code changes more frequently, run automated tests to catch issues early, and deliver updates to production quickly and reliably. CI/CD tools support faster development cycles, improve code quality, and reduce manual intervention, making them essential for modern DevOps practices. From automated builds to deployment pipelines, these tools help ensure consistent and repeatable workflows that support agile development and rapid iteration. Popular examples of CI/CD tools include Jenkins, GitLab CI, CircleCI, Travis CI, and GitHub Actions.
