CI/CD Pipelines with GitHub Actions
Set up automated testing and deployment pipelines using GitHub Actions with caching and parallel jobs.
## Automating Deployments
GitHub Actions makes it straightforward to set up CI/CD pipelines directly in your repository.
## Basic Workflow
```yaml
name: CI
on:
push:
branches: [main]
pull_request:
branches: [main]
jobs:
test:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v4
- uses: actions/setup-node@v4
with:
node-version: 20
- run: npm ci
- run: npm test
- run: npm run build
```
## Best Practices
- Cache `node_modules` with `actions/cache` for faster builds.
- Run linting, type checking, and tests in parallel jobs.
- Use environment protection rules for production deployments.
- Add a canary bake step to catch regressions post-deploy.
## Conclusion
A well-designed CI/CD pipeline catches bugs early and ships changes confidently.
