The overall experience and what's covered in the lecture have been really beginner-friendly and easy to digest. The lecturer also have never been more concise and easy to understand in everything that's being explained in the lecture which proved really great for me. The lecturer have also been very accommodating in answering questions in easy to understand manner, and answers your question really fast(mostly a day's time). This lecture have easy to digest, and easy to understand content overall. My only issue is that some of the lectures are now outdated. Even though some of them are outdated, they are not much. My other issue is that some errors and failings in testing that can be encountered are not shown in the lecture which can make me, the lecture taker, feel that I'm doing things wrong despite following what's mentioned in the lectures. I understand that those can happen but I am just mentioning it here cause it does happen in this lecture. Also, if anyone's having errors for their various tests despite following the lecture thoroughly, please make it a habit on updating your dependencies as majority of the errors I've encountered on my tests were fixed after doing so.

This is a great course. It explains a lot of topics, to the point and with clear examples. I have already finished all the current lectures and going through the archived ones now to see if I find something useful. I already knew automation testing but with Selenium/Java and this course helped to get the hang of the tool faster. Now I think I will go for a Javascript course to complement my knowledge

The overall content of the course and the way Gianni taught us were definitely good .But one has to bear with the pain of browsing over the internet to update the commands according to V6 . If you can bear with the same ,its definitely a good course to look forward to . You get to learn a lot when you see your tests failing and come up with solutions to resolve them either from google or from the documentation itself (which is really good). However I would love to see this course updated to V6 including some additional topics like integrating with Cucumber and Jasmine framework. Good work Gianni !!!! Thank you for the course .

Very informative in an easy to follow format.
By George Petrinovich on 11/7/2020
Since I am more advanced in webdriverio this is a bit too basic for me but it is expected. Taking this course so that I can get into the areas I am not familiar with.
By Carlos Gutierrez on 10/26/2020
Really goes into detail onto a lot of important topics and its all well explained
By JINGYU LIN on 10/24/2020
The course content is amazing !! The instructor explaining very well. All exercises will provide the full set solution. Something that needs to improve is the course content is webdriverio5.x only. But, I currently download is webdriverio 6.x , some program code will have some error. You need to figure it out. The other thing needs to introduce other test frameworks like cucumber/Jasmine, how to interact with the webdriverio framework.

This is a great structured course - Loved it and made my learning very easy. I have also recommended to many others in testing community. The only comment I have is around leveraging this course directly to latest WDIO version 5 and 6 directly without having to go through Version 4.0. This would have helped me go over the course faster. Gianni is a very good instructor and very fast in responses.

Good course, providing overall knowledge on WebdriverIO
By Sunny Lewallen on 9/23/2020
This course lays a solid foundation of both concepts and examples. The example site for running tests against was invaluable. Great Job!
