What are Build Automation Tools for Linux?

Build automation tools are software tools that automate the process of compiling, testing, and deploying software applications. These tools help developers streamline the building of software from source code, ensuring that the process is repeatable, consistent, and efficient. Build automation typically includes compiling code, running unit tests, generating reports, packaging software, and deploying it to different environments. By automating these steps, build automation tools reduce human errors, improve efficiency, and support continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) practices.
