🚦 Quality Gates

Components automatically enforce:

Security Gates
- No critical vulnerabilities
- No exposed secrets
- Compliance validation passed
Quality Gates
- Code coverage meets threshold
- All tests passing
- Performance within limits
Deployment Gates
- Health checks passing
- Security policies applied
- Monitoring active

🔍 Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Component not found:

# Ensure correct path and version
include:
  - component: gitlab.bluefly.io/llm/bfcicomponents/components/ci-cd/security/security-scan@0.1.0

Security scan failures:

# Adjust security level for development
inputs:
  security_level: "public"
  fail_on_high: false

Build timeouts:

# Reduce parallel builds
inputs:
  parallel_builds: 2
  build_timeout: 60

🎯 Best Practices

Start with security - Always run security scans first
Use caching - Enable cache for faster builds
Parallel execution - Use parallel jobs where possible
Progressive deployment - Deploy to staging before production
Monitor everything - Enable monitoring in all environments

📈 Performance Tips

Cache dependencies:
```
cache_enabled: true
```
Optimize builds:
```
optimize_build: true
parallel_builds: 6
```

Selective testing:

browser_tests_enabled: false  # If not needed
load_tests_enabled: false     # For faster feedback

🔗 Integration with Existing CI/CD

Gradual Migration

Start with one component:

include:
  - component: .../security-scan@0.1.0

Keep existing jobs:

my-custom-job:
  stage: test
  script:
    - echo "Existing job continues to work"

Gradually replace with components

Hybrid Approach

# Use components for standard tasks
include:
  - component: .../security-scan@0.1.0
  - component: .../build/multi-platform-build@0.1.0

# Custom jobs for specific needs
custom-integration-test:
  stage: test
  script:
    - ./run-custom-tests.sh
