GitLab Configuration File

The GitLab CI/CD configurations are defined in the root repository in a file called “.gitlab-ci.yml”. In the file, you can define the scripts to be run, dependencies, commands to run in order, and other configuration files and templates to be included.

A .gitlab-ci.yml file might contain:

stages:
  - build
  - test

build-code-job:
  stage: build
  script:
    - echo "Check the ruby version, then build some Ruby project files:"
    - ruby -v
    - rake

test-code-job1:
  stage: test
  script:
    - echo "If the files are built successfully, test some files with one command:"
    - rake test1

test-code-job2:
  stage: test
  script:
    - echo "If the files are built successfully, test other files with a different command:"
    - rake test2
