Course Description
In this course you will learn how to become an effective test engineer. This course will teach you the fundamental practices of a Software Quality Assurance Engineer.
We'll get into what it is like to test software and how to do it. You'll learn about how to write a test cases and how to execute a test. Learn how to file a bug report and tips and tricks on becoming a better QA engineer.
A software quality assurance engineer is someone who monitors every phase of the software development process so as to ensure design quality, making sure that the software adheres to the standards set by the development company. Software quality assurance engineers make sure that new products work before they are released to the public.
Testing is something every developer must do to write effective and quality code, but going about what you should test and how to do it can be a challenging question.
Quality Assurance is the practice of monitoring other developers' work and creating processes and tests that will ensure the product meets the end user’s expectations and limiting the amount of bugs that are released.
Software delays are costly for a company, so it is vital for software releases to meet target dates and stay within budget. A software quality assurance engineer helps meet release deadlines by breaking up the development process into attainable testing goals and relaying any issues back to the development and product teams or leaders.
By the end of this course you will know what it takes to become a Software Quality Assurance Engineer.

As the title suggests, the course covers the fundamentals of Quality Assurance, which were explained clearly and in an easy-to-understand way. Although I was already familiar with many of the terms due to my experience in Software Development, the course helped me better understand several QA concepts and how they are applied throughout the software development process. Overall, it was a great introduction and met my expectations.

The course provides a good foundation, but it would be even better if it included more quizzes and hands-on exercises. Adding practical examples and real-world scenarios would make the learning experience more engaging and help reinforce the concepts, rather than relying primarily on theoretical explanations.

Excellent course. It provides a clear overview of the fundamentals and is well aligned with its title. While it could explore a broader range of testing types in more depth, it remains highly insightful.

I would be great to have Spanish subtitles included. The content is nice and usefull, but for not English speakers it might be difficult to follow the rithm of the instructor

He explained how clearly without any unnecessary information how to properly do the job of a quality assurance engineer. I felt that his words of wisdom were so great that it's translatable to what an integration and test engineer does.

I have learned a lot! Each section was packed with useful information. The instructions are clear, narrated in a simple and understandable manner. If you want to learn QA in a nutshell, this is the ultimate course.

Clear explanations and examples are well structured and well executed. It would be great to have a small section about automation tests explaining software as an example.
