Course Description


  2026 Update

  • Added a simple online vbscripting editor (Beta ver1)

VBScript is an Active Scripting language developed by Microsoft. VB scripting allows users to automate tasks in a Windows environment. The concepts from this course benefit regular users (wanting to experiment) and QTP/UFT professionals. VBSkills enables QA Engineers to move their efficiency to a NEXT LEVEL.    QA Engineers, QTP/UFT engineers, System Administrators, and Network Administrators use VBScripting skills to automate simple to complex daily tasks.


We will start from the basics and walk you through a learning journey to master the skills.


The course begins with variables, arrays, operates, and error handling. After you learn these basic skills, we jump into the conditional statements and loops. We have included a module to help you master the built-in functions. These built-in functions come real handy as you don't have to code that functionality.


You will also learn to work with Files, Folders, Excel Documents, and MS SQL Server.


The projects at the end of the course help you to move to the next level by pushing you to most of the skills gained in this course.


There is no replacement for hands-on coding. You will learn to code like a professional developing reusable code.


The Sample Scripts included helps students to learn quickly and experiment by modifying them. The course is well organized with High-Quality Videos, and sample scripts!!

You may want to make the discussion be conveyed in clear and structured manner and present it with objectives. You may also want to consider improving the lecturer's way of teaching giving clarity and emphasis to his words, as well as the volume of his voice. Nevertheless, I still appreciate the effort.

By Mitch Gershonowitz on 8/21/2023

Very basic. Could have used a better introduction to using VS Code, especially regarding installing a plain text editor. Instructor doesn't really explain functions and introduces keywords in scripts before we've learned them.

Auto Generated captions are mostly inaccurate and not being a native English speaker its sometimes hard to understand the accent of the instructor. But the teaching is amazing just have to keep going backwards to re hear what he's saying. Thank you for the amazing course!!

Although I found it very useful, and It helped me a lot to get good idea about VB Scripting, But Many things which can be added were I guess deliberately missed out and although it seems pretty fair to skip those topics, However The tutor must leave some reference PDF/Websites to enhance the skills. Also When needed there was no response from the tutor either via mail or via udemy Chat. But Overall, nice touch

It is a really good course for beginners. The Lecturer does a great job. If You want to start with VBscript - this is it. One thing! - Please remove that stupid music.... who listens to music while being focused... Not it's very difficoult to focus with that music!!!

Hello Training Team, This training was very useful for me to start working on VB scripting. It cleared most of my queries and now I am able to write the codes. Let me know if you have similar training course especially for CATIA VB and I will like to do that as well as my main focus is to automate the CATIA process. Once again, thank you so much for this training.

This Course is Amazing. Its presented exactly the way a Windows Admin (Myself) needs it presented to understand VBScripting and enhance my skill set to Automation Developer. The instructor is clear, precise and Logical in demonstrating what needs to be understood. The course Modules are systematic in building knowledge towards the final Goal. Windows Automation!!

The start could be with Message box Syntax and some other minute details as in I had to go to other online resources to understand the syntax. - I have got an update that the material would be updated with the above details ASAP. Very much satisfied with the course. Thanks.

By Anja Nölle on 4/26/2018

The course is good enough, however I'm missing exercises and tests that would deepen the learning experience. Unfortunately the course consists just of videos (including questionable PPT techniques like bouncing items etc..) and sample files. However; the explanations are very clear and easy to understand.
