On May 15, 2019 Inflectra will launch a webinar series called: Test Automation, Demystified. This introductory seven (7) part webinar series is intended as a foundation helping participants bridge the gap between manual testing and test automation. The overarching goal of this Level 1 Test Automation Certificate webinar series is to build the participants’ basic understanding, and a skill set to start using test automation in their work.
Webinar Series Overview
Test Automation, Demystified webinar series focuses on test automation topics that most beginners find challenging. Each webinar lasts an hour and consists of a 1) theoretical part, 2) a practical part and Demo, and 3) a Q & A session. Post webinar learning reinforcement will occur via a follow up action: each webinar be summarized in a follow-up blog, and followed by a short assignment or a quiz. Participants who wish to get a Certificate of Completion will have to complete all assignments.
Webinar Series Goal:
This Level 1 Automation webinar series will teach the participants about why, when and how to do test automation. During the webinar series, presenters will use Inflectra’s code-free test automation platform - Rapise to demonstrate ways in which the major test automation “problem” can be solved.
