CI consists of frequently integrating and merging feature code into a shared repository, preferably several times a day. Each integration can then be verified by an automated build and automated tests, which will be part of CT. This is done from within the repository or the different environments set up in the deployment pipeline. The goal is to ensure there are no integration issues and to identify any problems early.
