GitLab Workflow

The use of workflows to manage complex CI/CD development has led to GitLab creating a new and powerful workflow framework to create and control CI/CD pipelines. This section describes how iCR may be integrated into a GitLab CI/CD workflow.

GitLab is a popular Version Control System (VCS) based upon the widely available git framework. It can be accessed using its extensive cloud-based services or be installed privately within an Enterprise.

GitLab has evolved to provide a very extensive set of features for the DevOps engineers. Among those services is a comprehensive and easy to deploy system for integrating GitLab repositories and build operations into CI/CD pipelines. This section will show how to integrate OpenRefactory’s iCR into a GitLab managed workflow.
