7. Pipeline
❏ A pipeline consists of multiple stages, each of which will be run in
order. If a stage fails, then the pipeline is considered failed and the
following stages will not be started.

8. Stage
❏ A stage consists of multiple jobs, each of which can run
independently of the others. This means that Go can and does
parallelize the execution of jobs in a stage.
❏ If a job fails, then the stage is considered failed. However, since
jobs are independent of each other, the other jobs in the stage will
be run to completion.

10. JOB
❏ A job consists of multiple tasks, each of which will
be run in order.
❏ If a task in a job fails, then the job is considered
failed, and unless specified otherwise, the rest of
the tasks in the job will not be run.

11. JOB
❏ A job can be
