A Linux administrator is investigating a failed CI/CD pipeline. The failure log indicates that the make command exited with a non-zero status code, which prevented an application binary from being created. In which stage of the pipeline did this failure most likely occur?
The correct answer is the Build stage. The make command is a utility specifically designed to automate the compilation of source code into executable programs, which is the primary purpose of the Build stage. This stage takes the source code, compiles it, and creates a runnable artifact. A failure during this process, indicated by a non-zero exit code from a command like make, is a classic build failure. The Source stage precedes the build and involves retrieving code. The Test and Deploy stages occur after a successful build has been completed.
