Challenge
Understand the Version of Your Code
To start the lab, you will become familiar with a provided project that has an existing semantic versioning as expressed in the git tags, and understand the purpose of versioning.
-
Challenge
Perform a Patch Update
A code fix results in a patch, and hence a patch update. You will notice and fix a problem in the code, then will properly increment the version to reflect the change and compatibility state with consumers of the project.
-
Challenge
Perform a Minor Update
Examine the code for an issue and add a new method that the consuming functions will call. Then, examine an issue and make a change that is a version increment judgment call.
-
Challenge
Perform a Major Update
You will change the implementation of the getCurrentPayload method, breaking the interface of the previous version, and necessitating a major version update.
Real skill practice before real-world application
Hands-on Labs are real environments created by industry experts to help you learn. These environments help you gain knowledge and experience, practice without compromising your system, test without risk, destroy without fear, and let you learn from your mistakes. Hands-on Labs: practice your skills before delivering in the real world.
Learn by doing
Engage hands-on with the tools and technologies you’re learning. You pick the skill, we provide the credentials and environment.
Follow your guide
All labs have detailed instructions and objectives, guiding you through the learning process and ensuring you understand every step.
Turn time into mastery
On average, you retain 75% more of your learning if you take time to practice. Hands-on labs set you up for success to make those skills stick.
