QuickTest Pro v10 Basics Online Training
The QuickTest Pro v10 Basics course is developed with eLearning presentations containing robust feature explanations, images and some videos showing you exactly how to perform the features without guessing. This is not the same course offered by HP, but my own comprehensive training course developed based on my experience with real-world implementations with the HP/Mercury test automation tools and teaching experience since 1992; in addition to my total of 23 years of technology experience. I cover all the areas of QuickTest Pro that you need to know in order to begin using it effectively! Learn from a real user, not from some tech writer who has never used the tools in a real environment!

Intended Audience
It is intended to teach brand new users to QuickTest Pro 10 how to use it. By the conclusion of the training you will know how to use the basic features of QTP in order to automate standard GUI and Web based applications.

The training is ONLY authorized for the person the training was purchased for. This is a single user license to take the class. ONLY ONE person may take the class per purchase and it must be the person the class was purchased for.
Upon purchasing this eLearning class you agree to the licensing of only a single-user taking the class.
Duration
This is a self-paced training course; every person takes a different amount of time to complete the course. Some people grasp the material very quickly and others take their time. This is what makes eLearning so appealing, you move at your own pace. If you were to just try and get through the material as fast as you could, then we estimate the training taking about 15 hours, although we find most people take their time and so we double the time estimate to 30 hours.
You will be given a total of 30 days to take the training which is more than enough to get through the material. At that point the training will no longer be accessible. This is done as a preventative measure to avoid dishonest attendance of the class by people who have not purchased access.
Prerequisites
Basic software testing experience and knowledge will greatly help you with the concepts presented in the training.
