Core Concepts to Master
Test-Driven Development (TDD)
TDD is a software development process that relies on the repetitive cycle of writing automated tests before writing the actual code. This approach ensures that the code is testable, reliable, and maintainable.
Continuous Integration and Delivery (CI/CD)
CI/CD is a practice that involves automating the build, test, and deployment of software code. This process ensures that code changes are validated and deployed quickly, reducing the risk of errors and increasing overall efficiency.
