GitHub Actions

GitHub Actions is a continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) platform that allows you to automate your build, test, and deployment pipeline. You can create workflows that build and test every pull request to your repository, or deploy merged pull requests to production.

Example

Let’s look at an example of workflow.

name: Test
on:
  pull_request:
    branches:
      - main
jobs:
  publish:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - uses: actions/setup-node@v2
        with:
          node-version: '20.x'
          registry-url: 'https://registry.npmjs.org'

      # intermediary steps to run tests

      - run: npx testbeats publish -c path/to/report.json
        if: ${{ always() }}
        env:
          SLACK_URL: ${{ secrets.SLACK_URL }}
