• Description:
  GitLab CI/CD allows you to automatically run scripts and automation tasks whenever you push code to GitLab. By configuring a .gitlab-ci.yml file, GitLab can detect your repository and execute the Python script inside a pipeline environment. This helps automate testing, deployments, and Python-based workflows without manually running the script on your computer.

•  Step 1 — Create a New GitLab Project
   Log in to GitLab.
   Click New Project → Create Blank Project
   Enter project details:
   Project Name: python-ci-test-sample
   Visibility: Public
   Click Create Project
  
   This creates an empty repository on GitLab.
•  Step 2 — Add a Python Script
   Create a file named script.py inside your project:
   print("Hello from GitLab CI")
  
   This is the script GitLab will execute automatically.
•  Step 3 — Create the .gitlab-ci.yml Pipeline File
   Create a file named:
   .gitlab-ci.yml
  
   Add the following CI pipeline configuration:
  
   image: python:3.11
   stages:
    - run
  
   run_script:
    stage: run
    script:
     - python3 script.py
  
   This tells GitLab:
   Use a Python 3.11 environment
   Create stage run
   Execute the command python3 script.py
•  Step 4 — Push Your Files and Test the Pipeline
   Once you commit and push the code:
   Go to GitLab → Build → Pipelines
   Click the latest pipeline execution number (Ex: #2186182769)
   Select run_script
  
   You will see:
   Hello from GitLab CI
  
   This confirms your Python script successfully ran through GitLab CI/CD.
