Discussion CI pipeline using Github actions

I started learning CI/CD using github actions after containerising my application and I have created CI pipeline for django app that runs test, builds and pushes image to github container registry.
I am sharing my yaml file for CI pipeline. Please do share your thoughts and where can i improve.

name: Test Pipeline 
on: 
  push:
jobs:
  test-backend:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    services:
      postgres:
        image: postgres:14
        ports:
          - 5432:5432
        env: 
          POSTGRES_USER: test_user
          POSTGRES_DB: erp
          POSTGRES_PASSWORD: 123456

    steps:
      - name: Checkout repo
        uses: actions/checkout@v4

      - name: setup python
        uses: actions/setup-python@v5
        with: 
          python-version: "3.13.5"

      - name: install dependencies
        run: pip install -r Backend/requirement.txt

      - name: run tests
        env: 
          DATABASE_URL: postgresql://test_user:123456@localhost:5432/erp
          DEBUG: 'True'
          ALLOWED_HOST: '*'
        run: |
          cd Backend 
          python manage.py test

  build-and-push-image:
    needs: test-backend
    permissions:
      contents: read
      packages: write
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: login to ghcr
        uses: docker/login-action@v3
        with:
          registry: ghcr.io
          username: ${{ github.actor }}
          password: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}


      - name: checkout repo
        uses: actions/checkout@v4


      - name: build image
        run: docker build -t ghcr.io/namespace/erp:${{ github.sha }} ./Backend


      - name: push image
        run: docker push ghcr.io/namespace/erp:${{ github.sha }}

This is a pipeline that anyone can whip out in 10 mins. Where is validation, code quality scan, security scan, and where is actual release pipeline with version tagging? also it looks like generated with AI, Claude likes to use the same job name schema.

Brother I am still learning about it. That's why I asked for suggestions. Thank you for your suggestions. Will surely implement what you suggested
