why & how to create isolated environments per pull request


Avner Sorek from env0 gives a mini-tutorial on how & why to create an isolated test environment for your pull requests and integrate the process with git-ops (git actions in your continuous integration pipeline). The power of containerization enables creating temporary environments that are completely isolated in all phases of developing your web application from machine-local through all phases of testing, integration, and deployment.  And if you are in a hurry, you can run many of them in parallel.  On a public cloud the instant provisioning and tear-down of these environments and all infrastructure needed are simple and straightforward.  Some private, on-premise clouds are not yet capable of enabling these features.
