SAFe® Agile Software Engineering Workshop (ASE)
Overview
3 days
Enabling Technical Agility for the Lean Enterprise – with SAFe® Agile Software Engineer Certification
The discipline of software engineering has evolved with the introduction of Lean-Agile and DevOps principles and practices. The SAFe Agile Software Engineer workshop provides with members of Agile Teams on Agile Release Trains with new skills and approaches help organizations deliver software-centric solutions faster, more predictably, and with higher quality.
During this three-day, workshop-oriented course, attendees learn the foundational principles and practices that make up the Agile Software Engineering discipline. Attendees learn how continuous flow of value delivery and built-in quality are enabled by modern practices including XP technical practices, Behavioral-Driven Development (BDD), and Test-Driven Development (TDD).
Attendees learn proven practices to detail, model, design, implement, verify, and validate stories in a SAFe Continuous Delivery Pipeline. They will know the practices that build quality into code (abstraction, encapsulation, intentional programming) and designs (SOLID, Design patterns). Attendees also understand how Software Engineering fits into the larger solution context and their role in collaborating on intentional architecture and DevOps.
