About the Instructor :

Krushik has nearly 10 years of experience in IT, specifically in performance and automation testing. He has rich experience in tools like Load Runner, Selenium, UFT SOAP UI. Worked in Banking and Telecom domains. In his knowledge-sharing journey, he has trained nearly 150+ students through different modes of training.

I am able to Record, Replay back, Add transactions & Add Check Points, then why should I take this course?
This course is much deeper than that. Students reported that they were able to troubleshoot the issues by themselves after attending the course. Also, reported that the course helped them to break the interviews confidently. Lots of C functions, LR functions, conversions etc…will be discussed. If you are lead, you will understand what NFR’s to collect from client and exact process to follow during project implementation. (PTLC).

What student’s have to say about Krushik:

Dear, Sir l just wanted to take some time to express how much I enjoyed being in your performance testing course in the last months I can’t think of a teacher who could have made this course more special than you did. You truly are very knowledgeable and a standout, teacher because of your sheer dedication to your trainees. you always made extra sure that we understand the subject. since you knew, it was not an easy subject, without you I never would have been able to understand the subject matter. Being able to count on you for extra help and clarification was special to me and showed me how much you care about the happiness of your trainees or students. I will never forget all the activities you include in your class to enhance learning. I specifically loved how you always related the lessons to your practical experience would allow the material to make more logical and it will help us to recall the material when we face any challenge. I hope you know what a wonderful teacher you are we sure do and I appreciate it more than words can say. hope you will also be available for help when we face any challenge which is beyond our knowledge. Thank you so much – Michel
