Course - Agile Software Testing with Continuous Integration
The fact that I have learnt a new approach for writing unit tests is the part I liked most about the training. I also liked the free talk we had, the fact that we debated certain topics, I liked the team work we had, it made us analyse from a different perspective the requirements of user stories and I also appreciated the intervention of the trainer that suggested us different solutions when we were stuck on taking some decisions.
