Robust delivery with CI/CD
summary
DORA data shows medium/low teams suffer 15–64% deployment failures with one day–one week recovery, high performers see ~10% failures and <1 day recovery, and elite reach ~5% failures and minutes‑to‑<1‑hour recovery. The practical stack described moves code from Git to containers into GitLab CI with linting (Pint, PHP‑CS), static‑analysis baselines, Danger JS, migrations via Artisan schema dump, seeded review databases and automated review environments; gradual rollouts and Unleash feature flags enable percentage cohorts and instant disables so deployments actually work.
