Our Python pip package is fully functioning. However, this is not the end. We will need to maintain the quality of the code and enable it to be constantly upgraded when we push new features to our module and refactor existing code. Continuous integration enables us to ensure that the tests pass and that the standard of quality is maintained. It also speeds up the deployment process, enabling us to push new iterations within a matter of minutes, enabling us to focus on the task at hand. It also reduces the risk of making a mistake.
