Needs to be updated at least to dotnet 8 as per today, but it explain the basic concepts and a bit more, I felt like the AutoFixture section was not completed and feel like is not really useable for real world scenarios where the user forms have more validations o regards of the email, usernames, names, etc, Also GUID for all strings or hardcoded emails is not the best solution on my opinion.

The course was really helpful in creating my POC using Restsharp and i was able to demo to my management. The Trainer Mr.Karthik has explained the course clearly though you need to understand and expand it to your application needs, nevertheless the trainer was very responsive in the Q&A and clarified all my queries. The course gets updated with the latest changes as well. Thanks a lot Mr.Karthik for this tutorial, My only suggestion would be, if you can accommodate any reporting tools like Extent reports it would be even more complete course.

This course does not cover basic PUT testing also. I think the course is designed for the advanced level. The flow should be basic to advance. But I would agree, that the course follows many real-time coding standards. A note should be provided as it is designed for students who do not know what exactly API automation is. So that they can refer to it later. Because after completion of the course, it's hard and time-consuming to revise the video content.

There are few courses with C# on testing and out of all the available courses, I find Karthik’s content highly relevant and solution oriented. I highly recommend his courses to anyone working as a tester and using C# as a programming language.
By Kristof Solemé on 4/1/2022
newest c# implementation is tied into the latest automation testing tools. also the step by step approach and refactoring with explaining why something is updated/refactored is very good for learning. i also learn alot from the error debugging in the course. kk is simply awesome

Hi Karthick, the Lecture is very good. I could get along easily. All type HTTP requests for Product class not working and getting unauthorized 401 code. So couldn't continue the handson. Any fix for this.?

The instructor is not an expert in the library and is fumbling along the way. Compared to many of the other courses in Udemy, the quality is poor. The instructor also assumes that participants of this course has watched his videos on YouTube and makes references to the videos there which does not make sense the course should be self contained.
By Shilpa Basu on 8/26/2020
This is a nice course but will be confusing for a beginner. Here are my observations: 1. Instructor refers to a lot of topics in other courses that he has either on Udemy or Youtube. It is very annoying to break the flow and read about those topics in different channels. 2. Instructor has a very thick accent and sometimes it is difficult to follow.
By Surjit Malhi on 4/12/2020
Excellent training/course. The course has all the necessary information and helps in understanding concepts thoroughly, It helped me to build a framework. Some information is now old which can be updated. Looking forward to complete this course, and I hope it covers about how to run the tests in a build pipeline :) . Thank you!

Excellent dynamic and ownership. I think that section 6 stayed out of the context of the course and you could abort more examples with the scenario outline or the dynamic table with more than one row per scenario.
