The city’s pipeline policy marks the build red when static analysis reports a high-severity finding so the artifact is not deployed. What benefit does that quality gate provide?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
A real gate stops the train—high-severity findings paint the pipeline red so the bad crate never leaves. A warning nobody must honor is just a sticky note.
Full Explanation
The benefit of a quality gate is a consistent, automated stop: high-severity test or static findings mark the pipeline red so a known-bad artifact is not deployed. An advisory-only scan that nobody is required to honor is not that gate. Kubernetes rollout mechanics are a different concern than failing CI on severity.
