Jobs within each stage run in parallel by default, and inter-stage dependencies are handled through artifacts. The configuration uses extends and anchors to reduce duplication and keep the file maintainable.",{"question":47,"answer":48},"How does caching work in the generated pipeline?","The generator configures smart caching strategies with proper cache keys based on lock files like package-lock.json or Pipfile.lock. Caches are scoped per branch to prevent interference between feature branches, and the policy is set to pull-push for build jobs and pull for test jobs. This significantly reduces pipeline execution time.",{"question":50,"answer":51},"Can the pipeline deploy to different environments?","Yes, the Full feature level creates environment definitions for staging and production with proper rules — staging deploys automatically on merge to main, production requires a manual trigger or git tag. Each environment tracks deployments in GitLab's environment dashboard and supports rollback to previous versions.",{"question":53,"answer":54},"Does the generator include security scanning?","The Full feature level includes GitLab's built-in SAST (Static Application Security Testing), dependency scanning, and container scanning templates. These jobs run in parallel with your test stage and report vulnerabilities in merge request widgets, helping you catch security issues before they reach production.",{"question":56,"answer":57},"How do I handle secrets in the generated pipeline?","All sensitive values are referenced as GitLab CI\u002FCD variables using the dollar-sign syntax. The output includes comments listing which variables need to be configured in your project's CI\u002FCD settings. For deployment credentials, it uses environment-scoped variables so staging and production use different secrets automatically.",[59,60,61,62,63],"github-actions-generator","dockerfile-generator","terraform-config-generator","kubernetes-manifest-generator","blog-post-title-generator",[65,68],{"title":66,"content":67},"Complete CI\u002FCD Pipelines for GitLab Projects","GitLab CI\u002FCD is tightly integrated with your repository, making it the natural choice for GitLab-hosted projects.
