Quality gates adalah pemeriksaan otomatis dalam pipeline yang harus dilalui kode untuk melanjutkan — termasuk tests, linting, static analysis, coverage thresholds, dan security scans. Mereka menegakkan standar kualitas secara otomatis, mencegah kode substandar maju menuju produksi.
Apa itu quality gates
A QUALITY GATE is an automated CHECK that code must PASS to advance in the pipeline:
→ if the check fails, the pipeline STOPS (code doesn't merge/deploy)
→ enforces standards AUTOMATICALLY and consistently (not relying on humans to remember)
→ "Code must meet these standards to proceed" — automated, objective gates.
Common quality checks
✓ TESTS — automated tests must pass (the primary gate)
✓ LINTING — code style/format consistency (ESLint, Prettier, etc.)
✓ STATIC ANALYSIS — detect bugs, code smells, complexity (SonarQube, etc.)
✓ CODE COVERAGE — require a minimum test coverage threshold (e.g. ≥80%)
✓ SECURITY SCANS — dependency vulnerabilities (SCA), code (SAST), secrets detection
✓ BUILD must succeed; type checking (TypeScript, etc.)
✓ Sometimes: performance budgets, bundle size limits, accessibility checks
