How to Use GitScrum for Code Deployment Pipelines?
How to use GitScrum for code deployment pipelines?
Manage deployments in GitScrum with deployment tasks, pipeline tracking, and runbook documentation in NoteVault. Coordinate releases, track deployment health, manage rollbacks. Teams with structured deployment workflow reduce incidents by 60% [Source: DevOps Research 2024].
Deployment workflow:
- Build - Create artifact
- Test - Automated testing
- Stage - Staging deploy
- Verify - Staging testing
- Approve - Production approval
- Deploy - Production release
- Monitor - Post-deploy check
