Get exam-ready for the Certified Argo Project Associate (CAPA) while building real GitOps skills.
This course blends concise theory with hands-on labs and a deep, exam-style question bank—covering Argo CD, Argo Rollouts, Argo Events, Argo Workflows, and ApplicationSet by a Golden Kubestronaut!

What you’ll learn

• Model Argo CD Applications & AppProjects, sync options (auto, prune, self-heal), hooks & sync waves, health/status, RBAC, and multi-source apps.

• Use Helm and Kustomize with Argo CD: values, parameters, multiple kustomize binaries, and common pitfalls.

• Master Argo Rollouts: canary, blue-green, recreate, rolling updates; traffic shaping; AnalysisTemplates/AnalysisRuns; metrics & Prometheus integration.

• Build event-driven automation with Argo Events: EventBus, EventSource (webhook, S3, schedules, etc.), Sensors, triggers, dependency graphs, filters, and conditions.

• Orchestrate jobs with Argo Workflows: container/script/resource/HTTP templates, artifacts/parameters, retries, sidecars & daemons.

• Scale with ApplicationSet: list, git, SCM, matrix & cluster generators; templating strategies for multi-env/multi-cluster.

• YAML best practices, debugging strategies, and exam tricks to avoid gotchas.

  
  

How you’ll practice

• Exam-style questions with clear explanations for every option (why right, why wrong).

• Frequent “trap” questions to build speed and accuracy.

Who this is for

• DevOps/SRE/Platform engineers using Kubernetes who want a solid, practical Argo toolkit and to pass CAPA confidently.
