What it does

Woodpecker is a simple, yet powerful CI/CD engine that automates testing, building, and deployment of software applications with great extensibility

When to use it

•When you need to automate your application's build, test, and deployment process
•When you require a highly extensible CI/CD engine to integrate with your custom tools and workflows
•When you want a lightweight and easy-to-use alternative to complex CI/CD platforms

Ready-to-paste prompt

Create a pipeline that builds and tests a Go application using the official Golang image: `pipeline: build-and-test image: golang:alpine`

Heads up: You need to have Docker installed and running on your system to use Woodpecker, as it relies on Docker containers to run pipeline steps
