I've personally worked with several Cycle users who are adopting Github Actions as part of their deployment solution and we've found that when pairing GH actions with Cycle it makes for a simple, yet powerful combination. Today we’ll stroll through a basic example of using Github Actions alongside the Cycle platform.

This is one of a two-part series. You can also learn how to automate the deployment of FeathersJS apps to Heroku. In the software development lifecycle, testing offers benefits that reach far beyond the code itself. Testing assures all parties (developers, clients, project managers, etc) that, while the application may not be completely bug-free, it does what is expected, as expected.

The Datadog Service Catalog helps you centralize knowledge about your organization’s services, giving you a single source of truth to improve collaboration, service governance, and incident response.
