Rating5 / 5 from these reviews

RS

Rohit SharmaNon-IT → Automation QA

★★★★★

I came from a non-IT background. Week 2 TypeScript and the same e-commerce app every week made automation feel possible, not random tools.

AV

Anjali VermaCareer break → QA Engineer

★★★★★

After a career gap I had no confidence in interviews. Saturday mocks and the scored capstone demo gave me a script I could actually defend.

SP

Sachin PatilFresher

★★★★★

As a fresher I needed projects, not slides. The GitHub Actions pipeline on my e-commerce repo is what recruiters opened first.

PS

Pooja SinghSoftware trainee

★★★★★

Mentors actually reviewed PRs. Paste-and-run AI scripts were rejected — that discipline is why my framework looks like real work.

AK

Amit KumarDeveloper → SDET track

★★★★★

Resume shortlisting was my blocker. Tying the Playwright portfolio to facts on the resume — not keyword stuffing — got replies.

NJ

Neha JoshiIntern → full-time QA

★★★★★

API + UI + DB on one product finally clicked. Login API into storage state is the flow I still use in interviews.

VR

Vikram RaoMechanical → IT

★★★★★

Switching from mechanical, I needed a map. Eight weeks, one e-commerce app, Git from week 1 — I always knew what to practise next.

KM

Kajal MehtaJunior developer

★★★★★

Mock interviews were harder than the first company round. That was the point. I stopped freezing on framework-design questions.

RD

Rahul DasBackend → test automation

★★★★★

Daily prompts plus Sunday optional kept me consistent without burnout. The flake-triage AI lab taught me to read traces, not guess.

SK

Simran KaurCareer switcher

★★★★★

I was lost on what “SDET” even meant. This batch made the junior SDET track concrete: POM, CI, a demo, and a certificate I can explain.
