Design CI/CD pipelines that run test suites. Covers GitHub Actions and GitLab CI templates, parallelism and sharding, artifact management, flaky-test quarantine, test-result publishing, coverage quality gates, OIDC keyless deploy, and copy-paste workflows for Playwright, Jest, and multi-stage pipelines. Use when: "CI/CD," "GitHub Actions," "pipeline," "test in CI," "GitLab CI," "continuous integration," "test automation pipeline," "shard tests in CI." Not for: per-test flaky healing at runtime…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

<objective>
A 20-minute serial suite on every push destroys developer velocity; a green pipeline that retries flaky tests three times hides the race condition until it ships. This skill produces CI/CD pipelines that run the right tests at the right trigger, shard them across runners, store traces and reports as evidence, quarantine flaky tests instead of masking them, and gate merges on real coverage numbers. Use this skill when the question is about running tests in a pipeline, not writing them.
</objective>

## Discovery Questions

Check `.agents/qa-project-context.md` first — if it exists, use it and skip anything already answered there (especially `team_maturity` and existing CI conventions). Then:

1. **Which CI platform?** GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, CircleCI, Jenkins? This skill ships templates for GitHub Actions and GitLab CI.
2. **What test types need to run?** Unit, integration, E2E, visual, performance? Each has different resource and timing needs.
3. **What is the current CI duration?** Over 10 minutes means parallelism and sharding are mandatory, not optional.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add petrkindlmann/qa-skills/ci-cd-integration@sha256:5550baa1f4bacb17

The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
