WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
| "Thanks Antony for the Agile QA course and the advice regarding front end testing. In the last week I have been able to limit the tests we drive through selenium with cucumber to a manageable hour for the entire suite (rather than 6 hours), this is combined with unit testing which runs very quickly through the back end. I couldn’t have done this without learning to write and think about tests as we did on this course. So thanks for helping me to understand exactly what agile testing and QA was all about." |
