About the event
About this event
Automated pipelines introduce speed, volume, and change rates that overwhelm traditional validation approaches. This 3-Hour course teaches teams to validate CI/CD pipelines, integrations, and automated workflows while preserving data integrity and risk-based validation discipline.
Without the right controls, automated systems drift, evidence becomes unreliable, and compliance collapses quickly during inspections. Challenge-based testing and automated test evidence are essential, yet many teams lack a structured method. This course provides an achievable assurance model that supports rapid development without weakening audit readiness.
This is Module 3 of the Practitioner Course "Digital Validation and Cloud Assurance: Validating SaaS, PaaS and Automated Pipelines under CSA."
