Adopting Continuous Integration, Continuous Delivery, Continuous Deployment, and Continuous Testing in DevOps

Nowadays, Software companies are required to deliver features and products frequently, faster, and seamlessly. To accomplish these, the software delivery pipeline should be agile and must diverge from traditional waterfall practices. This needed shift from traditional software development practices to a presumably better approach birthed a new practice called DevOps. DevOps is a set of practices breaching the gap between development (Dev) and IT operations (Ops). Derived from agile practices, DevOps looks to shorten the software development life cycle providing continuous delivery and testing and ultimately, ensure higher software quality.
