Feature/decentralize unit test

Giuseppe De Feo requested to merge feature/decentralize_unit_test into master

Tested here: https://gitlab.builder.ai/devsecops/giuseppedf/giusepped-app/-/pipelines

Tests involved checking all the rules for all branches and MR. This job will run following the same rule unit tests used to follow before.

Quirk behavior: on gitlab 13.1 we found out that the rule: exists:

  • Dockerfile.unit-test changes:
    • Dockerfile.unit-test

Altough semantically correct, doesn't work on MR. For those MR that includes a change in the Dockerfile.unit-test the built_test will always run.

On feature branches and master branches the rule works perfectly and runs the build_test job only if the Dockerfile.unit-test exists and it's changed.

More on the approach: One thing to notice is that the image pulled for each branch is different, I didn't see a better way to re-use as much as possible the code other than having 4 different jobs with different rules that extend the unit test job.

MR of the docs to also review: https://gitlab.builder.ai/docs/devsecops/-/merge_requests/64/pipelines
