Getting started: What you should know

- [Instructor] Before we get started. I'd like to tell you a little about what you can expect from this course. If you're an automation engineer, you may find the sections on how to prepare your existing suite of test code to run in a continuous testing solution the most helpful. If you're a QA manager, you may have been over some of this before, but you'll probably get the most use out of this course as a general overview. If you're a dev ops engineer and you want to know how to better support your QA colleagues, then first of all, thank you. And second, you'll probably get the most use out of the suggestions about solutions for continuous testing, especially the software and infrastructure needed to run tests and continuous integration solutions. For dev ops specialists, automation engineers, and managers alike, it's also a good idea to look over your test code. Learn its architecture and its requirements before getting started with this course. You don't necessarily need to learn to code in order to get the best use out of this course either. While automation engineers are the main audience for this course, it's good for everyone who's interested in learning more about the continuous testing process. And that includes manual testers, business analysts, product owners, project managers, developers, and everyone who's involved in the process of designing, creating, and testing software solutions. You do however need to be familiar with some of the concepts of automated testing as that's the primary focus of this course. If you're interested in learning more about the process of automation, Meaghan Lewis's Foundation of Automations course is an excellent place to start, and I highly recommend it.
