These are very informative lesson from Tarek, just one recommendation if we would have had some interactive exercises it would have been great.

By Udemy User on 6/29/2026

The course content is well organized and easy to follow. It covers the basic concepts of manual testing in a clear way, and I think it’s a good course for beginners. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is that, as a non-native English speaker, I found the instructor’s accent a little difficult to understand at times. Subtitles would make the course even better. Overall, I would still recommend this course to anyone starting their QA journey.

It’s a little bit hard to understand the pronunciation. I would recommend to add subtitles.

By Jesus Patrick Nieves on 5/5/2026

Sample was spot on. This definitely provided the ways how a QA should do testing.

By Diana Claro on 2/27/2026

I found the course very comprehensive. By 2026, some applications have changed a bit, but it’s still easy to follow and to complete the different exercises.

Excellent course! Very clear explanations and practical examples. I learned a lot and really enjoyed the learning experience. Thank you!

By Charles Farmer on 1/7/2026

A quite well-done course. I do like the embedding of ChatGPT and web searches as examples. However, I would avoid using AI for image creation, and using slides that blink and flash.

By Norbert Svačina on 12/16/2025

Yea, course seems to be clear. I would maybe firstly explain some terms so I know better what is lecture about and would not need to rewind but it is fine in general. :)

This course has been very useful and helpful for me in learning to become a manual QA from the basics.
