I have been a professional software tester for the last 10 years. During my career, I have worked for many major companies such as Payconiq International (Amsterdam), Qardio B.V (Amsterdam), EnergyPages (Brussels), Dogus Technology (Istanbul), and QNB Finansbank (Istanbul).
I have personally taught many people and helped them become successful in software testing.
My mission is simple: to help you become a successful software tester.
When I started testing over 10 years ago, I had to learn everything by myself. It was challenging, but I had a great journey in my career. Besides my full-time jobs, I participated in many different international projects as a freelancer. In my courses, I also share my freelancing experience and teach you how you can make money online by using your testing knowledge.
I've trained myself to become the best teacher I could be and to make my training as good as possible, so that you or anyone else with the desire to become a software tester could become one.
Many instructors have no work experience in the field, and a lot of them have very low-quality material. You can easily compare other content and mine before you decide to purchase.
Are you ready to start? You can get started today. No previous experience is necessary.

It summarizes well the necessary knowledge about performance testing for newcomers in a short time compared to other courses. That's excellent. The language though was hard to listen and forced me to read subtitles while still trying to understand the audio. Sorry, it's just my experience. Still, it helped me a lot, so thank you very very much.

Good Content. This training provides a brief overview about Peformance Test design techniques and parameters to measure, and as well tool selection based on projects needs.

The overview of the 'reasons' why it is important to perform Performance Testing as well as the 'types' of Performance Testing available for use were helpful.

Taking this course was honestly one of the best decisions I've made. At first, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but the content was incredibly well-structured, practical, and surprisingly engaging. Every module felt like a step forward — not just in theory, but in real skills I could apply immediately. The instructors were supportive and clear, and I really appreciated how flexible the pace was. It gave me a huge confidence boost and opened up new opportunities I didn’t think were possible before. If you’re thinking about it, go for it — it’s absolutely worth it!

The course gave us all the main concepts and example to start in the Performance Testing industry. The instructor taught very well the main concepts. Maybe I would have liked it the course contain more information and practices in JMeter and example of each type of performance testing.

I somewhat got an idea about Performance Testing with this course. In the beginning I felt like the instructor was just reading the concepts to the students. But later on they explained the concepts somewhat better. Overall its a decent course.

The lessons were easy to follow and understand. They start with the basics and then go into more detail. The videos and explanations were clear and helpful.
