Very good content, but the speaker is simply impossible to listen to. That tongue clicking is so loud. Simple sound editing would have improved the quality so much.

Reviewed Sep 28, 2023For an exhaustive overview of Software Testing this course is the best. But, don't expect for deeper learning, it is just a walk-through/overview of Software Testing, and teaches the basics.

Reviewed Aug 24, 2023The course provided basic concepts of software testing with some assignments that you could practice, but I think the course is too short, and it'd be good if they introduced some tools that we could use in real-world scenarios.

Reviewed Oct 15, 2024As informative as the course was it was not able to hold my attention without needing to take several breaks, the lecturer was speaking in a monotonous manner and throughout the entire course it seemed like he was reading the course and not teaching the course which made it feel like me as the viewer and student didn't need to be there in the sense of attention

Reviewed Jan 6, 2025Not much lecture (each video is only 2-5 mins long), and most of the assignments require you to look up the information yourself. Some of the information is helpful, but I ended up feeling like I just taught myself most of it.

Reviewed Dec 13, 2025Excellent foundational course for Software Testing and QA. The course provides a solid and well-structured introduction to software testing and validation concepts. The instructor explains the fundamentals clearly, covering key topics such as verification vs. validation, types of testing, and the role of QA in the software development lifecycle. What stands out most is the didactic quality of the lectures and the balance between theory and practical exercises, which helps consolidate learning instead of just memorizing definitions. The hands-on activities and examples make the concepts much easier to understand and apply. This course is ideal for beginners who want a strong academic foundation in software testing, and also valuable for professionals seeking to reinforce core concepts. Highly recommended.
