Simple Node.js CI/CD Pipeline Welcome to the Simple Node.js CI/CD project! 🎉 This repository showcases how to set up a continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD) pipeline using GitHub Actions, Node.js, and Jest for testing.

🚀 What is This Project About? This project is a basic Express.js server that returns a friendly message. But the real magic lies in automating the testing and deployment process using CI/CD workflows!

🎯 Features ✅ Express.js Server – A simple API returning “Hello, CI/CD!” ✅ Automated Testing – Uses Jest & Supertest for API tests ✅ GitHub Actions CI/CD – Automatically runs tests & deployments ✅ Deployable – Ready for deployment on platforms like AWS, Heroku, or DigitalOcean

🛠 Setup & Installation 1️⃣ Clone the Repository sh git clone https://github.com/RolinaM/simple-node-ci-cd.git cd simple-node-ci-cd

2️⃣ Install Dependencies sh npm install

3️⃣ Run the Server Locally 🌍 sh npm start ##Your server should be running at: http://localhost:3000

4️⃣ Run Tests 🧪 sh npm test ##This will execute Jest tests to ensure the server is working correctly!

🤖 How CI/CD Works in This Project 1️⃣ Push Code to GitHub → GitHub Actions automatically starts the CI/CD pipeline. 2️⃣ Run Automated Tests → Jest verifies that everything works. 3️⃣ Deployment (Optional) → Once tests pass, the server can be deployed to a cloud provider.

🚀 GitHub Actions Workflow Your CI/CD pipeline is defined in .github/workflows/ci-cd.yml.

🔹 On Every Push:

Installs dependencies Runs Jest tests Deploys only if all tests pass
