Build Trigger

Definitions

1. The event or condition that starts a build or pipeline, such as a commit, pull request, tag, schedule, or manual action. Build triggers determine when automation runs and can be used to separate lightweight checks from full release pipelines.

   In plain English: The event that causes a build or pipeline to start.

   Example: "They added a nightly build trigger for the slow integration suite instead of running it on every docs-only pull request."
