Continuous Deployment (CD) is a software development practice in which code changes that pass automated testing and validation are automatically released to a production environment without requiring a separate manual approval step for each release. It connects development, testing, and deployment into an automated pipeline so that small, verified changes can move from a source-code repository to users quickly and consistently.
Continuous Deployment is commonly implemented with version control, automated testing, CI/CD pipelines, containerization, infrastructure automation, and monitoring. Development teams can use it to release bug fixes, improvements, and new features as soon as they meet defined quality checks, while automated rollback and monitoring mechanisms can help limit the impact of unsuccessful releases.
