From Code to Deployment | Real-Time Project Flow for Testers (SDLC + DevOps CI/CD)

In this video, you’ll learn the complete real-time project flow that every QA tester and automation engineer must understand — how software is developed, tested, built, and deployed using SDLC, CI/CD, and DevOps practices. This course walks you through each phase of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), explaining how different teams — Developers, QA Testers, and Support — work together in real IT projects. You’ll also learn how Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD) pipelines are implemented in DevOps environments. By the end of this session, you’ll have a clear, practical understanding of how real software projects move from code ➡️ test ➡️ deploy.
