Subject : IT & Computer Science
Overview
Take full stack applications beyond development with testing, security, CI/CD, cloud deployment, monitoring and scaling.
Course Description

Prepare full stack applications for production and boost your career

Creating a working full stack application is only the beginning. To serve real users reliably, software also needs to be tested, secured, optimised, deployed, monitored, and prepared to scale.

On this course, you’ll take applications built with the MERN stack — MongoDB, Express, React, and Node.js — and explore the practices that move them from development into production.

You’ll work across testing, security, performance, deployment, and ongoing maintenance while considering how AI tools can support modern development workflows.

Test and secure full stack applications

Learn to apply unit, integration, and end-to-end testing strategies across your application.

You’ll examine input validation, secure configuration, and common vulnerabilities, helping you identify weaknesses before software reaches users.

Streamline delivery with CI/CD and cloud deployment

Explore performance optimisation across the React front end, APIs, and MongoDB database.

You’ll then work with continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines to automate key stages of software delivery and move applications into cloud environments more reliably.

Keep applications reliable as they scale

Explore environment configuration, monitoring, logging, and reliability practices used to support production applications as usage grows.

You’ll also examine how AI tools can assist with coding, test generation, debugging, and code review across the full stack workflow.

By the end, you’ll be able to test, secure, deploy, monitor, and scale full stack applications while applying the practices needed to keep production software reliable and maintainable.

This course is for full stack developers, MERN developers, and software engineers who can already work with React, Node.js, Express, and MongoDB and want to progress into testing, deployment, security, performance, and scalable application delivery.

Prior MERN experience, including APIs, authentication, and basic testing, is required. Tools include VS Code, Node.js, npm, Git, browser DevTools, testing tools, Docker Compose, Redis, and MongoDB tools. Requirements: a container-capable computer, stable internet, Claude Code access, GitHub Actions, MongoDB Atlas, and API and front-end hosting accounts.

Career Path
  • Evaluate an existing MERN application for production readiness by prioritizing risks and defining measurable release criteria.
  • Develop component, API, and end-to-end tests using repeatable data, reliable assertions, coverage thresholds, and security regression checks.
  • Improve front-end loading, API latency, and database queries using measured baselines and before-and-after comparisons.
  • Demonstrate deploying a MERN application to managed hosting and automate quality checks and staging delivery with GitHub Actions, smoke tests, and rollback procedures.
  • Perform observability, resilience, horizontal scaling, shared state, and verified database recovery to improve operational reliability.
  • Assess AI-generated suggestions and audit findings using source inspection, reproducible tests, and operational evidence to justify release decisions.
