Implementation strategies for CI/CD pipelines in software engineering: Jordan market perspective - An empirical study

This investing action focuses on using Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines in software engineering. The research has four phases: an initial investigation and survey design, data collection and analysis, synthesis of results and best practices, and case study validation. It is driven by the increasing adoption of CI/CD pipelines and the need to comprehend their practical benefits, challenges, and effective implementation strategies. Using a convenience sampling approach, 100 firms were chosen to take part in the poll, and there were 27 responses. The survey was carried out using Microsoft Forms. The study found that CI/CD has several benefits, such as shortened time to market, improved teamwork, better software quality, and more agility. The difficulties included achieving a balance between stability and speed, cultural reluctance to change, and the complexity brought on by legacy systems. In addition to the findings, best practices and advice for CI/CD deployment were provided. Real-world case studies offered additional perspectives and confirmed the findings.
