The value in a CI pipeline is when its commands and checks are running successfully, and the pipeline is passing.
|
|
|
|
And then keeping it passing.
|
|
|
|
If the pipeline fails, it loses all of its value.
|
|
|
|
Passing should be its default state, and effort should be made to ensure it continues to pass.
|
|
|
|
If a pipeline fails, the change is not deployed, and the failure should be investigated and rectified so the pipeline is returned to a passing state and providing value.
