It sounds to me like you have a project that involves on-demand deployment of containers. Like it or not, the current standard for that is kubernetes. As someone is already saying on here, there will still be Dockerfiles and container technology involved, but not necessarily "docker compose" or "docker swarm." Just my guess, but I think that's part of why you're struggling to find the tutorials you're looking for, is that since 2020-ish (idk someone can correct my chronology, maybe 2018? 2021?) they've increasingly become k8s tutorials, not "docker" tutorials.

that's just my guess though :) Happy hacking!

How did you gather this? OP only mentions CI/testing, nothing about deployment. That's a long distance from needing kubernetes.

hmm I understood it as, "when i push a new branch to CI, I want to automatically deploy a container running that code." maybe I was wrong!

btw, imo, nearly all commercial shops' use cases are a long distance from needing kubernetes, but that doesn't seem to be stopping very many people... :)
