    Automate your build, test, and deploy pipelines using GitHub Actions!

    Continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines help you automate the software development process and maximize your team’s efficiency. GitHub Actions in Action teaches you to build real-world build, test, and deploy pipelines in GitHub Actions through hands-on labs and projects.

    In GitHub Actions in Action you will learn how to:

    • Create and share GitHub Actions workflows
    • Automate CI/CD workloads and other GitHub tasks
    • Secure release pipelines with secrets, variables, and environments
    • Support compliance frameworks

    Written by three Microsoft MVPs and tech reviewed by a Staff DevOps Architect from GitHub, this book delivers the hardworking skills and advice you’ll need to be successful on the job. DevOps engineers will love GitHub Actions in Action’s coverage of reliable methods for Infrastructure-as-Code and automating cloud environments. You’ll follow an extended example application for selling tickets, taking it all the way from initial build to cloud deployment.
