Building Pipeline and Feedback
Understand jobs, execution order and runners. Automate an existing test call and track the error path with an intentionally failing test.
GitLab CI/CD & Deployment Training
Understand pipelines · Prepare releases · Control deployments
Build an understandable pipeline from commit to prepared delivery. Your team learns to connect tests, build results, and releases, and target failed jobs. For TYPO3 and PHP development teams who want to automate releases in a comprehensible way.

What your team can do better afterwards
- A simple one. gitlab-ci.yml read, extend and check based on job expenses.
- Separate dependencies, cache and artifacts to be delivered.
- Assign variables and access rights to the environment.
- Plan a staging delivery with traceable release and fallback strategy.
A Possible Agenda for Your Team Date
These priorities are the starting point. Order, practice depth and examples are tailored to your learning goal before assignment.
Generate a reproducible result
Install composer dependencies, define build artifacts, and distinguish cache from release files. Discuss the handling of variables and confidential values.
Controlling extradition
Prepare an exercise environment as a goal, build in a manual release, and clarify the boundaries of a rollback. Database changes and persistent files are classified as separate release risks.
Joint application
From Erroneous Commit to Shared Version
A small PHP application goes through verification and build. An error stops the pipeline; after the correction, an artifact is created, the delivery of which is deliberately released. The focus is on understanding and a comprehensible process.
Make practice time work for your team
The team knows Git and the basic structure of a PHP project. For the exercise, a GitLab test project and a suitable runner are coordinated in advance. Hosting, runner operation and possible external costs are not included in the training price.
The agreed scope
The training works in an agreed practice environment. Productive deployment, server hardening, runner administration or the complete migration of your CI infrastructure are separate implementation services.

Frequent questions about services and prices
Is the workshop suitable for TYPO3 or general PHP projects?
Both are possible. Tests, build steps, and delivery flow are geared toward a pre-determined example. TYPO3-specific steps are taken to match the version, hosting and project setup.
Do we already need a finished pipeline?
No. A test project and a suitable runner are sufficient as a basis. Alternatively, we will discuss a delineated section of your existing pipeline. Complete investigation of a complex CI landscape requires additional preparation.
Will our website be published productively in the workshop?
A live release is not part of the standard format. We are practicing the process at a target set for this purpose. A productive introduction can then be reconciled as a separate order with access, acceptance and responsibilities.
What format and what price are planned?
As a start, remote team day is suitable: 6 hours, plus. Breaks, up to 8 people, from 1,890 € per team plus VAT. Included are coordination of learning goal and agenda, standard preparation, documents and task list. Extensive individual case analyses, larger groups and travel expenses are offered separately.
How do we ask for a team appointment?
Briefly describe the topic, previous knowledge and desired learning goal. The number of participants and the period can be supplemented directly. Matthias Gläßner clarifies the requirements with you and creates an offer. The request does not trigger a booking or payment.
