  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • I have learned how to replace manual testing processes with automation testing has helped in the rapid adoption of agile methodology across software development industries. I am able to write test scripts as well as executing them in the correct manner without needing any help from the managers. I am able to raise defects, triaging them, and passing it on to the correct team so they can take further steps to ensure that the defect has been resolved.

  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • First of all, this programme has been the best thing that ever happened to me. when I was at college I did not want to go uni due to university fees. finding this program has helped me in many different ways such as financial as well as academically. it has made me into a person for me to grow and learn more skills within the company. I am very grateful for this opportunity the company has given me.

  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • The programme was very helpful, the first week we had an introduction on what the company is about, then went on to completing a java Bootcamp. this helped me to be ready for any roles that come my way within the company. there were a lot of people in place for support, we have been assigned buddies so that if we has any questions regarding anything, they will always be there to support when ever they can. If they could not support they will forward us to someone else who can support.

  • 7. How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
  • i feel that every module that i have completed for my qualification has helped me a lot, all the modules that we are learning cover things we do at work. For example, testing methodologies, database, java etc. i feel like doing these modules helped me even more than I expected as they use real life problems to tackle any questions we have, in the roles we are able to use the method when we get stuck on something
