GOT QUESTIONS?

Frequently Asked Questions

Real questions from our community, answered by our experts

What is the difference between severity and priority?

+

Severity measures the impact of a defect on the system's functionality (e.g., a crash is high severity). Priority indicates the urgency with which the defect should be fixed based on business needs (e.g., a typo on the homepage might be high priority for a launch). A defect can be high severity but low priority, and vice-versa.

Do I need a technical background for this course?

+

No prior technical background is required. We start with the fundamentals of software testing and build up to advanced concepts. A logical mindset and attention to detail are the key assets you need.

What tools will I learn to use?

+

You will gain hands-on experience with industry-standard tools including JIRA for bug tracking, Confluence for documentation, and collaborate using platforms like Slack. The focus is on the concepts, which are transferable to any tool.

How does the 1:1 mentorship work?

+

You will be paired with a mentor from our network of professionals working at top startups and tech companies. You'll have scheduled weekly calls for personalized guidance, project reviews, and career advice, plus asynchronous support.

What kind of job support do you provide?

+

Our job support includes resume and LinkedIn profile optimization, mock interviews tailored to QA roles, access to our exclusive job portal with partner companies, and negotiation guidance until you secure an offer.

Can I pay in installments?

+

Yes, we offer flexible payment plans. You can choose to pay the course fee of ₹18,999 in two or three installments over the duration of the program. Contact our admissions team for details.

Will I get a certificate?

+

Yes, upon successful completion of all projects and the capstone, you will receive a verifiable certificate of completion. However, your real credential will be the professional portfolio you build during the course.

What if I miss a live session?

+

All live mentorship sessions and workshops are recorded and made available in your student dashboard. You can review them at any time and bring your questions to your next 1:1 call.

Is this course relevant for automation testers?

+

Absolutely. Understanding severity and priority is crucial for automation testers to decide which tests to automate first and how to report failures effectively. This course complements automation skills.

What is the time commitment per week?

We recommend dedicating 8-10 hours per week. This includes 2-3 hours of live/recorded content and 5-7 hours of hands-on project work and self-study. The program is designed for working professionals.
