Which approach in a software development workflow handles building, testing, and integration for each code commit, facilitating more frequent releases?
A scheduled procedure that compiles code at set intervals and defers tests to the release phase.
A strategy that stores all changes in a single repository and runs tests when major updates are completed.
A routine that packages the new code for local distribution without continuous testing or merges.
A pattern that employs build and test steps for each commit and merges into a shared branch.
The correct approach incorporates steps that validate each code update by carrying out build, test, and integration tasks automatically, a hallmark of continuous integration and continuous deployment. This flow reduces complex merges and catches errors early. Other answers rely on scheduled compilation, local packaging, or testing after major updates, which can lead to integration difficulties and delayed detection of problems.
