What is a build artifact and why build once deploy many crucial?
Tests whether you see artifacts as immutable deployable units. A strong answer says one binary is promoted through all stages, config is externalized, and rebuilding per environment creates drift. Red flag: accepting per-environment rebuilds.
Tests your understanding of immutable artifacts and environment parity in CD pipelines. A great answer defines a build artifact as the compiled, versioned output of the pipeline, such as a container image or compiled binary. It emphasizes that this artifact must remain unchanged as it moves from staging to production. External configuration should be injected at deployment time, not baked in.
