Introduction to Programming Course
As a modern software tester, you're expected to participate in code reviews, suggest additions to unit test suites and contribute to automation.
This means you'll need to be comfortable reading and writing code.
But isn't that really hard to learn? Where do you get started? And how do you get the confidence to write and run code that adds value to your testing efforts and the software your team is developing?
The course is packed with hands-on exercises designed to teach you to apply fundamental concepts of object-oriented programming, and to give you continuous feedback while you progress and grow into a capable and confident contributor to automation and application code. You'll be writing and running code from day 1.
