Introduction to GitHub Actions - Part 5 - Run A Workflow Against A Pull Request

With this video we finally start to get into a real-world example of using GitHub Actions.

The Scenario:
We need to make a change on a feature branch and then pull request that change to the default branch. However, as part of the pull request process, we need to run a workflow that will build the code and test the code.

In this video you are going to review a workflow file that satisfies the above requirements and see it "in action". (You see what I did there :) )

This is just the start of this scenario. We will continue to build on this in the next few videos.

This video will also be helpful in preparing for the GitHub Actions certification exam.
