GitHub Actions<\/strong> is a CI\/CD pipeline tool using which you can automate<\/strong> your build<\/strong>, test<\/strong>, and deployment<\/strong> workflow<\/strong>. Using it you can design workflows that deploy merged pull requests to production or build and test each pull request before adding it to your code repository.<\/p>\n

When an activity takes place in your repositories, such as a pull request by software developer<\/a> or the creation of an issue, you can set up a GitHub Actions workflow to be triggered. One or more jobs in your workflow are capable of running simultaneously or sequentially. Each job contains one or more steps that execute a script that you write or an action, a reusable extension that can streamline your workflow. Each job runs inside its own virtual machine runner or inside a container.<\/p>\n
