Real-World Problem Solving
We don't teach theory in isolation. Every lesson starts with actual bugs from production systems. You'll work on the same challenges our instructors faced at major tech companies.
- Debug live codebases from open-source projects
- Analyze failure patterns in distributed systems
- Create test strategies for legacy applications
- Handle edge cases that break automated pipelines
Small Cohorts, Personal Attention
Each program accepts just 16 participants. This means you get direct feedback on your testing approaches and can ask questions without competing for attention.
- Weekly one-on-one progress sessions
- Code reviews with detailed improvement suggestions
- Career guidance tailored to your background
- Access to instructor Slack channels during program
Industry-Standard Tools
You'll work with the same testing frameworks and environments used by leading software teams. No outdated tutorials or toy examples.
- Selenium, Cypress, and Playwright automation
- Docker containers for consistent test environments
- Jenkins and GitHub Actions for CI/CD integration
- Performance testing with JMeter and K6
Project-Based Learning
Build a portfolio of testing projects that demonstrate your skills to potential employers. Each project solves real problems from our industry partners.
- API testing suite for e-commerce platform
- Mobile app testing framework
- Database integrity validation system
- Security testing protocol implementation
Learn From People Who've Been There
Marcus Kellerman
Marcus spent eight years at Amazon Web Services building testing infrastructure that processes millions of transactions daily. He's the person who figured out how to test serverless functions reliably – something that seemed impossible in 2018.
Vivian Thornfield
Vivian led the testing transformation at a 500-person startup that scaled to handle 10 million users in eighteen months. She knows what breaks when systems grow fast, and more importantly, how to prevent those failures.
Ben Rodriguez
Ben wrote the testing framework that Netflix uses for their recommendation engine. His automation scripts run 50,000 tests every hour, and he'll teach you how to build systems that are both comprehensive and maintainable.
Your Learning Journey
Foundations & Assessment
We start by evaluating your current skills and filling any gaps in core concepts. No one gets left behind, but we also don't waste time on things you already know.
Manual Testing Mastery
Before you automate anything, you need to understand what good testing looks like. We'll teach you to find bugs that automated tests miss and document issues that developers actually want to fix.
Automation Development
Now we build the automated testing suite. You'll learn to write tests that run reliably, fail for the right reasons, and integrate smoothly with development workflows.
Advanced Techniques
The final module covers specialized testing areas: performance, security, and mobile applications. Plus, you'll learn how to scale testing practices across entire development teams.
