Test with Actions

Create workflows that enable you to use Continuous Integration (CI) for your projects.

Welcome

Continuous integration can help you stick to your team’s quality standards by running tests and reporting the results on GitHub. CI tools run builds and tests, triggered by commits. The results post back to GitHub in the pull request. The goal is fewer issues in main and faster feedback as you work.

  • Who is this for: Developers, DevOps Engineers, new GitHub users, students, teams.
  • What you'll learn: What continuous integration is, how to use GitHub Actions for CI, how to create a workflow that runs tests and produces test reports.
  • What you'll build: We'll use remark-lint to check the consistency of Markdown files.
  • Prerequisites: We assume you've completed Hello GitHub Actions first.
  • How long: This course takes less than two hours to complete.

In this course, you will:

  1. Add a test workflow
  2. Fix the test
  3. Upload a test report
  4. Add branch protections
  5. Merge your pull request
