Let’s get you working efficiently in a software development team and shorten the time it takes to get high quality applications to your customers. We start with the theory and benefits of building software with Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery. Continuous Integration starts with source control. We get you working with AWS CodeCommit, a managed source control service that makes it easier for teams to collaborate on code and with Git repository you learn branching strategies and get hands-on committing bug fixes and writing unit tests. Your commits initiate an AWS CodePipeline pipeline where we can run automated tests for fast code quality feedback. We then use AWS CodeBuild to run tests and package code for deployment. Finally, we use AWS CodeDeploy to automate code deployment. Let’s use your coding skills to automate the process of getting quality code to production infrastructure.
This course will provide a combination of video-based lectures, demonstrations and hands-on lab exercises to get you hands-on committing code that flows through a full Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery pipeline.
This week, you learn how to work on software as a team. You start by learning about best practices for continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD). Next, you explore what it means to take a DevOps approach, where most of the delivery and operations of applications are automated. Finally, working in a team also means contributing to source code in a repository. You learn the basics of using Git for source control, and some best practices for branching and managing code.
This week, you get hands-on with some engineering responsibilities. First, you learn about testing code. When you write code, the quality of the code is important. By automating testing as you build, you can increase your confidence that you’re creating quality software. Next, you work through the process of getting a bug fix from code and updating tests. Finally, you see how the code is automatically deployed to production.

When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?
To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
What will I get if I subscribe to this Specialization?
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
Is financial aid available?
Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.
