CI/CD Pipelines - Oh, the Places You'll Go!
summary
Concrete CI/CD setup for Shiny apps: a small bug is caught by automated tests that record UI behavior, shinytest2 runs in a pipeline that uses GitHub Actions to set up R, run tests, and only then deploy to Posit Connect. The pipeline flags failures so fixes are made before users see them; the claim is that this prevents broken reports and enables reliable automatic deployments, turning manual, error-prone releases into consistent, tested rollouts.
