What we help teams do

Practical Training for Real Engineering Challenges

Our programmes combine technical learning with practical implementation. Choose a focused workshop or build a broader enablement programme around your team's goals.

Test Automation Upskilling

Help QA engineers, SDETs, and developers improve their automation skills through practical coding, test design, assertions, debugging, and maintainable test implementation.

  • Java programming for automation
  • Selenium automation
  • Playwright automation
  • Test design and assertions
  • Debugging and maintainability

Framework Mentoring and Onboarding

Help teams understand, maintain, and improve their existing automation frameworks. Make framework knowledge easier to share instead of relying on a single engineer.

  • Framework architecture walkthroughs
  • Code organisation and reusable components
  • Automation coding standards
  • Framework onboarding
  • Practical refactoring and maintenance

API and End-to-End Testing

Build practical skills in API automation and end-to-end testing. Help teams select the right testing layer for the business risk and technical problem.

  • REST API testing
  • API automation frameworks
  • UI and end-to-end workflows
  • Assertions and data validation
  • Contract and integration testing where relevant

Engineering Reviews and Pair Programming

Work collaboratively with experienced practitioners to review implementation choices, identify recurring problems, and improve automation quality.

  • Pair programming
  • Automation code reviews
  • Architecture reviews
  • Test design reviews
  • Debugging sessions

Test Execution and CI/CD Practices

Improve how automated tests are executed, reported, and maintained within engineering delivery workflows.

  • CI/CD integration practices
  • Parallel execution strategies
  • Test reporting and failure analysis
  • Pipeline troubleshooting
  • Opportunities to reduce unnecessary execution time and infrastructure costs

How sessions work

Training That Goes Beyond the Classroom

Most teams don't need another generic introduction to testing tools. They need to solve the problems slowing down their engineering work.

FDT Enterprise combines hands-on training with engineering mentoring. Sessions can be shaped around your existing framework, CI/CD pipeline, API architecture, test execution challenges, and team skill gaps.

Participants practise writing code, investigating failures, reviewing implementation choices, and applying concepts to realistic scenarios.

The goal is to help your team become more capable and independent, with practical knowledge they can continue using after the engagement ends.

  • Learn through implementation.
  • Practise on realistic scenarios.
  • Receive technical guidance.
  • Improve knowledge sharing.
  • Build confidence maintaining automation.

Whether sessions use custom exercises or your own systems is agreed per engagement, subject to access and confidentiality.

Flexible by design

A Format That Works for Your Team

Choose a delivery approach that fits your team's availability, learning objectives, and technical environment.

Live Online Workshops

Instructor-led virtual sessions with live demonstrations, practical exercises, and interactive discussions.

Onsite Training

In-person training at the client's location, subject to scheduling and location availability.

Hybrid Programmes

A combination of virtual sessions and in-person workshops.

Corporate Engineering Labs

Focused sessions for coding, debugging, framework walkthroughs, test design, and collaborative problem-solving.

Ongoing Mentoring

Follow-up technical mentoring and knowledge-sharing sessions, available when included in the agreed engagement.

Availability of each format is confirmed during your enquiry.

Outcomes

Build Skills Your Team Can Use at Work

The value of technical training lies in what engineers can apply after the programme. FDT Enterprise focuses on practical learning that supports stronger engineering habits and greater team independence.

Stronger Automation Skills

Improve practical understanding of test design, automation implementation, assertions, debugging, and maintenance.

More Consistent Engineering Practices

Help teams align on coding conventions, framework usage, review practices, and test implementation standards.

Smoother Framework Onboarding

Make it easier for engineers to understand existing frameworks, execution workflows, dependencies, and contribution practices.

Better Testing Decisions

Help teams evaluate tools, test layers, reporting practices, and execution strategies based on technical requirements and business risks.

How engagement works

From Team Challenges to Practical Enablement

  1. 1. Understand Your Needs

    We discuss your team, existing tools, skill levels, pain points, and learning objectives.

  2. 2. Define the Programme

    We agree on the technical topics, scope, practical exercises, duration, delivery format, and expected outputs.

  3. 3. Learn by Doing

    Participants work through guided exercises, code implementation, debugging, reviews, and practical scenarios.

  4. 4. Apply and Continue

    The team takes forward the agreed learning materials, practical examples, and guidance to support continued application at work.

Programme structure, deliverables, and follow-up support are finalised based on the engagement scope.
