Basic Deployment Question

  • I am very new to wordpress.

    I am used to an environment where you code on your local pc, package the files for deployment and then deploy in various shared environments like DEV/QA/Prod.

    My question is if I develop a site locally in WP, how do I migrate it to DEV/QA/PD environments? Is there a deployable archive created that is deployed in every environment?

    If not, do we need to copy the application files and database structure and data manually using some way to deploy the site to various environments?

    Thanks

    Thanks.

    I’m not sure your link covers this scenario because I’m very new to wp.

    I want to replicate my local site from pc 1 to pc 2. Basically both will be ‘localhost’ and I made an export of my local wp db from pc1 that I want to replicate onto pc 2. I also have a few plugins installed on the 1st pc where i want to copy from.

    Can I just run the db import using the sql script I created on pc1 on pc 2 to replicate the database? Also for replicating my site, can I copy everything under ‘wp’ which is my local wp site directory? Will this also copy all the plug-ins to pc 2?

    Thanks
