GitLab CI/CD is GitLab's built-in continuous integration and continuous deployment system, configured through a YAML file (.gitlab-ci.yml) that defines automated pipelines for building, testing, and deploying code. DevOps engineers and software developers use it to automatically run tests and deploy applications whenever code changes are pushed, reducing manual errors and speeding up release cycles. It's a core feature that distinguishes GitLab as an integrated DevOps platform rather than just a code hosting service.
