In the remainder of this book, we're going to implement Continuous Integration, Delivery, and Deployment. However, before we start, we must choose some software to work with. As I have mentioned, we have multiple choices for our source control and for our CI server and, of course, we can use a ton of programming languages and databases. Additionally, we need to create some project to work with. This chapter will lay out the technologies that are used in the remainder of the book, as well as a high-level overview of how they all work together. For the test project, we'll create a simple to-do list web app. We'll implement it in Node.js with a MongoDB database and in C# Core with a PostgreSQL database. That way, we'll see CI in action in both frontend and backend development, as well as the popular JavaScript language, the compiled...

Overview of this book
The challenge faced by many teams while implementing Continuous Deployment is that it requires the use of many tools and processes that all work together. Learning and implementing all these tools (correctly) takes a lot of time and effort, leading people to wonder whether it's really worth it. This book sets up a project to show you the different steps, processes, and tools in Continuous Deployment and the actual problems they solve.
We start by introducing Continuous Integration (CI), deployment, and delivery as well as providing an overview of the tools used in CI. You'll then create a web app and see how Git can be used in a CI environment. Moving on, you'll explore unit testing using Jasmine and browser testing using Karma and Selenium for your app. You'll also find out how to automate tasks using Gulp and Jenkins. Next, you'll get acquainted with database integration for different platforms, such as MongoDB and PostgreSQL. Finally, you'll set up different Jenkins jobs to integrate with Node.js and C# projects, and Jenkins pipelines to make branching easier.
By the end of the book, you'll have implemented Continuous Delivery and deployment from scratch.
