Organisations want to deliver faster, better, and with more reliability. But too often, quality is treated as a separate phase or a bottleneck. This training helps you shift left, integrate testing and verification into daily work, and build a culture where quality is everyone’s responsibility.

You’ll explore the DASA competence model and how “specify and verify” skills fit into a DevOps team. You’ll learn about acceptance criteria, test-driven development, continuous integration, test automation, monitoring, and feedback loops that connect customer value to delivery.

This training is for you if you recognise any of these situations:

• You want to improve quality without slowing down delivery.
• Your organisation struggles with aligning testing and development.
• You need to integrate automation and verification into CI/CD pipelines.
• You want to foster a shared quality mindset across teams.

The training is valuable for testers, developers, product owners, DevOps engineers, QA specialists, and anyone responsible for delivering reliable software in a DevOps environment.

What you will learn

• Understand the DASA DevOps competence model with focus on Specify and Verify
• Learn how to “shift left” and integrate quality early in the lifecycle
• Apply practices such as test-driven development, behaviour-driven development, and acceptance criteria
• Explore test automation and monitoring in a DevOps context
• Improve collaboration across roles to make quality a shared responsibility

Note: The course and exam are in English.

After this training

• You will be able to connect testing and quality to business value.
• You will know how to implement automation to improve speed and reliability.
• You will strengthen collaboration and ownership across Dev and Ops.
• You will be prepared to apply Specify and Verify skills in your DevOps team.

Together, we’ll help you create a culture where quality is built in – not bolted on.
