AWS Certified Developer Associate Practice Test 3

Correct answer - "define a .appspec file in the root directory" : An AppSpec file must be a YAML-formatted file named appspec.yml and it must be placed in the root of the directory structure of an application's source code. Otherwise, deployments fail.

Incorrect:

"define a .buildspec file in the root directory" - This is a file used by AWS CodeBuild to run a build

"define a .buildspec file in the codebuild/ directory" - This is a file used by AWS CodeBuild to run a build. In this example we are not working with CodeBuild

"define a .appspec file in the codebuild/ directory" - This file is for AWS CodeDeploy and must be placed in the root of the directory structure of an application's source code
