4-3 YAML Without the Tears CI Pipelines Hands-On

I want to start with a reframe, because most engineers come into a testing conversation with a certain feeling about it — testing is the thing you are supposed to do, the thing you feel guilty about not doing, the thing that gets cut when the deadline moves up. I want you to leave this lecture with a completely different relationship to tests. When AI can scaffold a comprehensive test suite in minutes, testing stops being a burden and starts being a superpower. The engineers who come out of this course are going to write ten times more tests than their peers — not because they are more disciplined, but because the boring scaffolding work is gone. Your job becomes the interesting part: deciding what matters, what needs protection, and what the edge cases actually are. Let's get into it.
