Question 1 of 30
In a CI/CD pipeline, a development team is implementing automated testing to ensure code quality before deployment. They decide to use a testing framework that requires a specific configuration file to be present in the repository. The team has two branches: `development` and `production`. The `development` branch is where new features are integrated and tested, while the `production` branch is stable and only receives code that has passed all tests. If the configuration file is missing from the `development` branch, what is the most effective strategy to ensure that the CI/CD pipeline continues to function correctly without disrupting the workflow?
Implement a pre-commit hook that checks for the presence of the configuration file before any commits are made to the `development` branch.
Manually add the configuration file to the `development` branch after each commit.
Disable the CI/CD pipeline for the `development` branch until the configuration file is added.
Create a separate branch specifically for testing purposes that includes the configuration file.
