Michael Prynne| Software Test Analyst| L&G –
Extremely engaging, kept the course fun and full of information. As an apprentice I found every slide useful, and coupled with John’s detailed explanations and useful anecdotes I feel much more confident in my knowledge and thus my ability to perform my role.
Gareth Morgan| Test Lead| Legal & General –
Very informative training, John was able to give real life examples of the content and where we could use the tools in the workplace.
David Parsons| Test Manager| L&G –
It was a good course, it was a refresher for some of the more experienced testers within the group but I thought that the apprentices would have taken a lot of information out of the course.
