Many companies today automate their software development life cycle with continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD). It’s part of the broader DevOps movement to speed software development while reducing errors. Continuous integration builds and tests code automatically, while continuous delivery automates the entire software release process up to production. In order to secure it, industry leaders produced the DevSecOps workflow. Take a look at how it works and why it matters.

The CI/CD pipeline provides several benefits for software development. These include smaller code changes, faster mean-time-to-resolution for problems, greater test reliability, faster release rates, smaller software backlog and greater customer satisfaction.
