Using GitLab CI & Runners for effective code quality

We continue in the DevOps area with a sort of follow-up on our previous talk. Now Gerben Geijteman will dive deep into GitLab CI & Runners and tell us how the enhance the quality of your code.

The lecture:
Using GitLab CI & Runners for effective code quality. Recently the focus on delivering high quality PHP code has intensified and this drive has been supported by increasingly effective QA tooling such as AST (Abstract Syntax Tree), use of CI/CD and with tons of community driven tooling. In the search to reduce bugs and to lean how to be a better coder I have been building my ultimate setup in GitLab which gives me near-instant feedback on the code I'm driving. I want to show you what I learned so far.

This talk is aimed at the more advanced PHP programmer with an interest in a sidestep to the DevOps field.
