How does a version control system typically trigger a CI/CD pipeline?

By the CI/CD server automatically creating a new branch for every code change.

By requiring developers to manually copy the repository to the build server before each run.

By sending a webhook to the CI/CD server when a commit is pushed to a specified branch.

By the CI/CD server polling the version control system at regular intervals for changes.

What is the primary purpose of an artifact repository in a CI/CD pipeline?

To monitor the health of the CI/CD pipeline.

To execute automated tests against the build.

To store the source code of the application.

To store and version build artifacts so they can be retrieved for deployment.

A company's CI/CD pipeline builds a Docker image for a security scanner. They want to ensure that the image is stored in a central location and can be pulled by the deployment stage. What should they use?

A file share on the build server

What is the role of pipeline orchestration?

To monitor application performance in production.

To define the order of stages and manage dependencies and triggers between them.

To store build artifacts for later retrieval.

To compile source code into executable binaries.
