What is CI, CD and CT?

 In software development, CI (Continuous Integration), CD (Continuous Delivery/Deployment), and CT (Continuous Testing) are key DevOps practices that streamline the software development lifecycle by enabling automation, rapid feedback, and continuous deployment of high-quality code. Continuous Integration (CI): Developers frequently merge code changes into a shared repository, triggering automated builds and tests to detect issues early, ensuring stability and consistency. Continuous Delivery/Deployment (CD): Automates the release process; in Continuous Delivery , deployments require manual approval, whereas in Continuous Deployment , releases occur automatically without manual intervention. Continuous Testing (CT): Involves running automated tests throughout development, providing real-time feedback on code quality and reducing the risk of defects reaching production.
