Introduction
Explore how to automate Ansible CI CD pipelines with GitHub Actions by understanding the stages of source, build, testing, and release. Learn to enhance deployment velocity while ensuring reliability through linting, unit, and integration tests.
Ansible lifts a huge operational burden. So much so, in fact, that the friction of build and release go unnoticed. In contrast to manual configuration, entering a few keystrokes to run Ansible is a godsend. With frequency, however, that novelty diminishes. And your next constraint becomes velocity.
To achieve a higher velocity, human interaction has to be removed. However, velocity isn’t just about speed. It does little good to go fast if the system is unreliable or unsafe. So, automated ...
