What is Git Pipeline and How to Use it With Bitbucket and Gitlab

Git Pipeline provides an extensible set of tools for modeling build, testing and deploying code. All jobs in a stage are executed simultaneously and, if it succeeds, the pipeline moves on to the next stage. If one of the jobs fails, as a rule, the next stage is not executed.

Stages

There are following pipeline job steps in Magento 2.2 projects:

1. Build – compilation and packaging of the project.
2. Testing – automated testing with default data.
3. Staging – manual testing and decision on going live.
4. Production – manual.
