Agile Software Engineering with Certified SAFe® ASE
The introduction of Lean-Agile and DevOps
principles and practices into software engineering
has sparked new skills and approaches that help
organizations deliver higher-quality, software-centric
solutions faster and more predictably.
This three-day, workshop-oriented course explores foundational
principles and practices and how continuous flow of value delivery and built-in quality are enabled by XP technical
practices, Behavioral-Driven Development (BDD), and Test-Driven
Development (TDD). Attendees will learn proven practices to
detail, model, design, implement, verify, and validate stories in a
SAFe ® Continuous Delivery Pipeline, as well as the practices that
build quality into code and designs. Attendees will also explore
how software engineering fits into the larger solution context and
understand their role in collaborating on intentional architecture
and DevOps.
Prerequisites
All are welcome to attend the course,
regardless of experience. However,
meeting the following prerequisites will
make the training more productive.
- Understanding of SAFe for Teams
- Background in engineering, development, managing development, or quality assurance
Who will benefit ?
This course is for the technical members
of an Agile Team—developers and
testers. Product Owners, Scrum
Masters, Managers, and others with a
less-technical background would also
benefit and gain an understanding of the
development process for more effective
team collaboration.
