Course Overview

Planning, Building, and Testing with AI is for people who want to use AI tools to build apps and websites in a more organized, reliable way. The course shows students how to turn an idea or set of requirements into a clear plan, then use tools such as Claude Code, Codex, and GitHub Copilot to help build from that plan.

Students will learn how to guide AI with specifications, break work into manageable steps, check whether the output matches the original goals, and improve the project through testing, review, and refinement. By the end of the course, students will have a practical process for using AI coding assistants to plan features, build with more control, catch problems earlier, and make improvements with greater confidence.

Course Benefits

  • Turn app and website ideas into clearer requirements and project specifications with AI assistance.
  • Use tools such as Claude Code, Codex, and GitHub Copilot to help plan, build, test, and improve projects.
  • Prioritize features, manage project scope, and create an implementation plan before building.
  • Guide agentic AI coding assistants with clear specifications and project context.
  • Use build-test-evaluate-iterate workflows to improve AI-generated results step by step.
  • Check for missing edge cases, incomplete work, quality risks, and mismatches with the original plan.
  • Use AI to support testing, auditing, refactoring, and re-validation of app and website projects.
