It depends on which environment you are trying to deploy to. At my company, we have multiple environments of the same application. One for Dev, QA, and Production.
For the sake of brevity, lets take a deployment from QA to Production. Note:
Local Machine -> Dev (Do it as many time as your heart's wish 😄)
Dev-> QA (OK with some restrictions) ,
QA-> Production (OK with a lot more restrictions),
Dev->Production ( A BIG NO NO, could get me fired!).
Once the code has been peer reviewed and QA Tested, we create a deployment folder that contains all project files and dependencies that are needed to perform the deployment.
We create a deployment ticket in TFS with instructions for the DevOp team on how to deploy it. Install this and delete that.
I sit and cross my finger. If all things goes well, they reply back with some feedback.
If the deployment fails, I usually have to work with DevOps on figuring out why and attempt to redeploy.
This process is very cumbersome at time and deployments can often span days. However, I have heard talks of going fully automated deployments 😄, but they are still trying set up the bolts and nuts for the whole operation.

So, you have an operations team which is named devops?
I bet everyone at the company is annoyed at how "devops" has made things more complicated for little benefit.
It seems one of the biggest challenges with these new development processes is that it requires a true collaboration, something not heavily prioritized and actively avoiding. It is so much easier to create definitions for interface handoff. We do it in good software architecture all the time.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
