Course Description

Quality engineering is a comprehensive approach to software quality assurance that combines manual and automated testing, the evaluation of various quality attributes and defect prevention throughout the entire development lifecycle. A Quality Engineer not only verifies whether a product works correctly but also helps the team create more stable, reliable and high-quality software.

During the course, students will study programming languages and tools such as Java, Playwright, Rest Assured and others. They will become familiar with test design principles, UI and API testing, automation framework development and integration into CI/CD processes. They will also learn how to use Zephyr Scale and how to properly plan, execute, and document test scenarios.

The course aims to develop both testing skills and a quality-oriented engineering mindset in students. With the knowledge acquired, they will be able to identify risks, select an effective testing strategy, apply appropriate manual or automated approaches and work successfully as a Quality Engineer within a modern Agile team

After completing the course, you will be able to

Selection Stages

chevron-down-outlined

Stage I – Registration: Candidates fill out the registration form.

Stage II - Technical Testing: The test is based on practical assignments in Java. Questions will assess the candidate’s ability to read, analyze, and solve small coding problems. The focus is not on theory - evaluation is centered on practical understanding and application of code.

Stage III - Motivation Video (HR): Candidates must upload a short motivational video in English, describing their motivation and expectations regarding the course.

Stage IV - Technical Interview: During the interview, candidates will be asked practical questions directly related to code. The goal is to determine their ability to solve real problems and demonstrate debugging skills.
