I've been looking at Gitlab's CI pipeline to automate testing and deployment of a Perl App I've been writing.

Gitlab's documentation on the subject is very comprehensive https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/pipelines.html however there's no Perl example https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/examples/README.html so I did a bit of playing to get a working configuration for those who are interested.

Gitlab makes it extremely easy to use their CI by creating a gitlab-ci.yml file to control the pipeline.

Dev-test pipeline automation, 100,000+ free apps, public and private registries
