Your organization uses a mix of Jenkins, GitLab CI, and Cloud Build for CI. You want to centralize artifact storage and security scanning while minimizing changes to each CI system. What should you do?

Configure all CI systems to push artifacts to Artifact Registry and use Artifact Registry's vulnerability scanning.

Use Cloud Build as the only CI system and migrate all pipelines to it.

Have each CI system store artifacts in its own repository and use a separate scanning tool.

Use a third-party artifact repository like JFrog Artifactory and integrate it with each CI system.

A CI pipeline in Cloud Build needs to run unit tests and then package the application into a container image. Which sequence of steps best represents this pipeline?

Build the image, push it to a registry, then run tests

Run tests, build the image, then push the image to a registry

Push the image, run tests, then build the image

Run tests, push the image, then build the image

You have a Cloud Deploy pipeline that uses Skaffold with Kustomize. You need to add a new environment-specific configuration that is not present in the base manifest. You want to avoid duplicating the base manifest and ensure the change is applied only to the new environment. What should you do?

Create a separate manifest file for the new environment and reference it directly in the delivery pipeline.

Create a new Kustomize overlay for the environment and add the configuration as a patch in that overlay.

Use a different tool like Helm to manage the environment-specific configuration.

Modify the base manifest to include the new configuration and use a Kustomize patch to remove it for other environments.

In a Cloud Build configuration file, what is the purpose of the `substitutions` field?

To list the artifacts that should be uploaded to Artifact Registry after the build

To specify the base image for the build steps

To provide user-defined variables that can be used to customize build steps and commands

To define environment variables that are available to all build steps

In a Cloud Build CI pipeline, what is the purpose of the `artifacts` section in the build configuration?

To list the environment variables available to the build steps

To specify files or images that should be stored after the build completes

To define the container images that will be used as build steps

To configure the build trigger for the pipeline
