Description

This 3 hours course will be your first step in Testing. Software testing is a high demandable field with competitive compensation. It is also known as the “back door” to Tech World because it is the easiest way to get into the field without learning programming languages!

These days we visit hundreds of websites and a lot of mobile applications on our phones – all of those were tested before we (users) see them. Only 1 position out of 6 is filled by Tech companies are things are getting even worse…

That’s why it is never been a better time to become a Software Tester (QA Analyst). This course will be your perfect start in QA.

In this course, I will use simple examples (Simpsons, car dealerships, and more) to explain to you step by step what is Testing and how easy it is to become QA Analyst.
