Good day!
Google gives a completely abstract and useless answer to this. Do I understand correctly that artifacts are errors in the build, test, deploy process that are saved to a file?

No. Artifact is the general name of any file resulting from a build. This can be the build result itself (jar or exe), a test report, generated data, etc. In other words, an artifact is something material that does not disappear after the end of the pipeline (unlike temporary files that are deleted at the end of the process)
