What is the difference between Continuous Delivery and Continuous Deployment?
- In Continuous Deployment, every change that passes the pipeline is released to production automatically, while Continuous Delivery keeps changes release-ready but needs a manual approval to go live
- They are two names for the same practice
- Continuous Delivery skips automated testing
- Continuous Deployment applies only to mobile apps
Answer and explanation
Answer: A. In Continuous Deployment, every change that passes the pipeline is released to production automatically, while Continuous Delivery keeps changes release-ready but needs a manual approval to go live
Explanation: Both practices keep the software always deployable. Continuous Deployment removes the final manual gate and pushes every passing change to production automatically.
