Automation and tooling
Automation and tooling are the backbone of modern software development practices, and their importance grows exponentially when applying DDD within a CI/CD pipeline. While DDD provides strategic and tactical patterns for designing robust systems, automation ensures these patterns are implemented efficiently and consistently across the development lifecycle. From code generation and automated testing to infrastructure as code and deployment pipelines, the right tools not only enhance productivity but also reduce human error, enabling teams to focus on solving domain problems. In this section, we are going to explore the tools and automation practices that bring DDD and CI/CD to life, ensuring smooth integration, testing, and deployment at scale.
At the heart of this synergy lies the source code repository, which acts as much more than a simple storage medium for code. It serves as the foundation for collaboration, traceability, and automated workflows, enabling...
