Building software services is a team sport. As your code base, your team, and your customer base grow, so do your challenges. For example, how can you:

• Organize your team to manage user issues and bugs while still delivering new value?
• Ensure your code is high quality and shippable after every sprint?
• Manage testing?

In this session we will talk and walk through these challenges together, covering:

• Team organization
• Trunk based development
• Code quality with unit testing
• Pull Requests and branch policies
• Continuous Integration
• QA
• Testing in production

During the hands-on activity, we will use GitHub and VS Code and simulate how a team works on a project. To participate in the hands-on exercise, register prior to Jan. 12 and have your device configured including:

• VS Code installed
• GitHub account created
• Git tooling installed
• .NET Core 3.0 installed

This event is hosted by 20Fathoms as part of the tccodes talent development initiative. It is intended for intermediate to advanced software developers. For questions contact keith@20fathoms.org or visit tccodes.org.
