Security testing in CI/CD: how to answer it in a security questionnaire

Usually asked as: “Is security testing automated in your CI/CD pipeline?”

Updated

What the buyer is really asking

Buyers want to know which security checks run automatically on every change and whether a failing check blocks the merge. This narrows the broader testing question to your pipeline.

Other ways buyers ask it

Every one of these wants the same answer:

  • “Is security testing automated in your CI/CD pipeline?”
  • “Do builds fail on high-severity findings?”
  • “What security checks run on each commit?”

Evidence to have ready

  • CI workflow definitions
  • Required status checks on protected branches

How Tyrvar answers this

Tyrvar treats every wording above as one question. You write the answer once, attach the evidence, and revisit it when your setup changes. Each buyer gets that approved answer no matter how their questionnaire words it. If you have not answered it yet, Tyrvar flags the question for you and does not make something up. Try it on your own questionnaire.
