What is cruse climb techniques?

The definition of cruse climb technique is "A climb technique employed by aircraft, usually at a constant power setting, resulting in an increase of altitude as the aircraft weight decreases."
Does this mean what the pilot only does is to keep the constant power, and the aircraft would climb by itself due to lose of weight?
In what conditions this technique would be applied?
