cicd.sh | Simplified script for monitoring Git repos

cicd.sh is a Shell library. cicd.sh has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

You should be testing your code. And you should include testing in your CICD pipeline. I just don't believe a CICD package should always take on that responsibility... at least, not alone. Every developer and team have slightly different approaches to handling testing. Generally speaking, CICD packages provide wrappers around testing frameworks. And while that may sound convenient, it's not. The syntax sent to the test harness is generally hidden and cannot be altered. And, the authors behind the CICD product have a never-ending responsibility to maintain those wrappers. Asking the authors of the test framework to embrace a specific CICD product seems unfair since taking on that responsibility would cause their efforts to grow exponentially. Every test framework I can think of is capable of being invoked via the command line. And I'm fairly certain that you've done this with whatever product you prefer. In my opinion, the most most useful path is to leverage that same knowledge and syntax to call upon that test product and parse the results. I would even go so far is to say that I'm fairly certain you'll find ample syntax examples online to do this. So, where am I going with this? Good question. I'm not entirely sure. It really depends on what people need or want. Maybe the solution is to simply add to the /examples folder with snippets showing how to call various test products. Maybe I'll create a separate project dedicated to the never-ending question to just handle testing. Honestly, I'll have to wait and see if there's an interest... or, heck, even if there is an interest in this lil' project.
