Thank you Scottie I passed ISTQB Performance Testing yesterday. This is very great course to follow and with your example it makes the theory related to Operational Profile and Correlation easier to me to catchup. Again thank you very much

By Olha Shcherbyna on 4/1/2026

too complicated language for common tests, please, reconsider using not so idioma-based texts

By Tamara Nitsch on 3/8/2026

Too many pointless metaphors. Hard to follow at times due to the monotone speaking.

By Liz on 1/6/2026

Too many cliched phrases makes it hard to digest.

By Malanden Blanch on 11/16/2025

The needed info was there but I would have been nice to have more examples of info to go more in depth with the topics.

clear explanations

By Julian Spies on 5/31/2025

Half of the course is idioms explaining things to me like I'm a child. Rewatching the videos for final prep before the exam just makes it worse. Amazing quizzes and Q&A sections tho. Assuming that part was done by Mahed
