Complete the lab with a working build and dependency management exercise with a documented technical result.
Guided Lab: Build and Dependency Management in Continuous Integration and Delivery
Continuous Integration and Delivery — Build and Dependency Management lab: Create a small pipeline that installs locked dependencies, runs tests, builds a versioned artifact, performs one security/config check, and publishes only after all gates pass.
Know what success looks like before you begin
Save verification evidence: the module-specific command, output, test, rendered state, query result, log, or measurement that proves the exercise worked.
- I completed the module-specific practice task.
- I produced a working build and dependency management exercise with a documented technical result.
- I saved the module-specific command, output, test, rendered state, query result, log, or measurement that proves the exercise worked.
- I diagnosed and corrected one realistic Build and Dependency Management failure.
Stop before using production credentials, important data, shared permissions, live infrastructure, or destructive commands that are not required by the lab.

Know the problem and the evidence you need
Create a small pipeline that installs locked dependencies, runs tests, builds a versioned artifact, performs one security/config check, and publishes only after all gates pass.
a working build and dependency management exercise with a documented technical result
Complete the task, verify the module-specific command, output, test, rendered state, query result, log, or measurement that proves the exercise worked, then diagnose one failure that is specific to Build and Dependency Management.
Build a CI/CD pipeline that creates a versioned artifact from a reproducible dependency set, runs tests and security checks, and promotes database/configuration changes with rollback-aware ordering.
Prepare before changing anything
Have this ready
- Open a small local project or disposable lab environment.
- Confirm the runtime, toolchain, or service needed for the module.
- Prepare one valid input and one invalid or boundary input.
Run the lab
Complete one check at a time. Record the evidence before moving on.
Match the evidence to the next action
The expected result appears and the boundary case behaves correctly
Save the result and continue to the module checkpoint.
The normal case works but the failure or boundary case does not
Return to the diagnostic step and inspect the module-specific state or output before changing more code.
The result changes between runs
Compare the relevant input, dependency, configuration, data, state, or runtime version for this module.
Choose the next action
Complete the lab when you can reproduce the working result, explain the important module decision, and recover from the tested failure.
Confirm the evidence you produced
