This document discusses continuous delivery (CD) from a QA engineer's perspective. It introduces the concepts of continuous integration (CI) and CD, provides resources like a book and cartoons to further explain CD, and notes that CD can be implemented at varying levels of complexity. It also poses several questions to assess how close an organization is to achieving true CD, such as how frequently code is checked into trunk and whether tests are fully versioned along with code, configuration, environment and data.
