The Software Quality Assurance Program was awesome! I learned so much in just a couple months, but never felt too overwhelmed. Sam did an amazing job and made class a fun learning environment. I felt fully prepared for my first job as a manual QA tester, and that I have a good understanding of how to write automated tests for when I find a job as an automated tester.
