AWS Certified DevOps Engineer – Professional (DOP-C02) — Question 175

A company has an application and a CI/CD pipeline. The CI/CD pipeline consists of an AWS CodePipeline pipeline and an AWS CodeBuild project. The CodeBuild project runs tests against the application as part of the build process and outputs a test report. The company must keep the test reports for 90 days.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

Answer options

• A. Add a new stage in the CodePipeline pipeline after the stage that contains the CodeBuild project. Create an Amazon S3 bucket to store the reports. Configure an S3 deploy action type in the new CodePipeline stage with the appropriate path and format for the reports.
• B. Add a report group in the CodeBuild project buildspec file with the appropriate path and format for the reports. Create an Amazon S3 bucket to store the reports. Configure an Amazon EventBridge rule that invokes an AWS Lambda function to copy the reports to the S3 bucket when a build is completed. Create an S3 Lifecycle rule to expire the objects after 90 days.
• C. Add a new stage in the CodePipeline pipeline. Configure a test action type with the appropriate path and format for the reports. Configure the report expiration time to be 90 days in the CodeBuild project buildspec file.
• D. Add a report group in the CodeBuild project buildspec file with the appropriate path and format for the reports. Create an Amazon S3 bucket to store the reports. Configure the report group as an artifact in the CodeBuild project buildspec file. Configure the S3 bucket as the artifact destination. Set the object expiration to 90 days.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Option B is correct because it incorporates a report group in the buildspec file, ensures reports are copied to S3 upon build completion, and sets an S3 Lifecycle rule to manage retention. Options A and C do not address the need for automatic report management or lifecycle rules. Option D, while it sets expiration, lacks the automation through EventBridge and Lambda for copying the reports to S3.
