• Key Concepts:
  Continuous integration (CI) is a software development practice that enables developers to integrate code into a shared repository frequently. This process allows teams to detect and fix errors quickly, as well as ensure that the code is always up-to-date. In the context of SAP Cloud Platform, CI is used to ensure that the code is always up-to-date and that any changes are tested and deployed quickly.
  
  How to use it:
  In order to use continuous integration with SAP Cloud Platform, developers must first set up a CI/CD pipeline. This involves creating a repository for the code, setting up a build server, and configuring the pipeline to run tests and deploy the code. Once this is done, developers can commit their code to the repository and the CI/CD pipeline will automatically run tests and deploy the code.
  
  Tips & Tricks:
  When setting up a CI/CD pipeline for SAP Cloud Platform, it is important to ensure that all tests are configured correctly. This will help ensure that any changes are tested properly before they are deployed. Additionally, it is important to monitor the pipeline regularly to ensure that it is running smoothly.
