Automated Testing and CI/CD Integration for B2C Applications

In the fast-paced world of consumer software, delivering updates quickly without breaking existing features is critical. This text-based course guides you through the core concepts of automated testing and continuous integration, helping you build a robust pipeline that ensures quality at every step. You will transition from manual, error-prone deployment processes to modern, automated workflows. By understanding how to write reliable tests and integrate them into a continuous delivery pipeline, you will learn to release software updates with speed and stability. What you'll learn: - Understand the foundational concepts of continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) - Write and structure automated unit and integration tests using modern testing frameworks - Configure automated testing workflows that trigger automatically during code integration - Apply mock services and test doubles to isolate external APIs and services - Implement basic containerization concepts to ensure consistent testing environments - Monitor pipeline health and interpret test results to quickly resolve integration failures This course begins with essential testing terminology and CI/CD principles before introducing step-by-step written guides on configuring pipelines, managing test data, and maintaining high software quality. Designed for beginner developers, QA engineers, and system administrators looking to understand modern automated delivery, this course requires no prior CI/CD experience.
