Daily Term: Continuous Integration
Continuous Integration
Continuous Integration (CI) is a practice where developers frequently merge code changes into a shared repository, typically multiple times a day. Each merge triggers automated builds and tests (e.g., using Jenkins or GitHub Actions) to catch issues early. For example, a team might run unit tests on every commit to ensure code quality. CI reduces integration conflicts and improves collaboration, but it requires a strong test suite and fast feedback loops.
