    I am very confident in API testing after completing this course. The course structure was very good and the instructor is simply awesome in his explanation. I am satisfied with the course. I am expecting a little enhancement in the course, If you can provide more videos in this Postman API for practice, it would be very comfortable for the people who attend this course.
    Thank you.

    It's a great course. But certification completion must be given if someone completes this course. I need certification of completion.
  • J'ai vraiment apprécié ce cours parce qu'il m'a permis en peu de temps de comprendre et assimiler beaucoup de choses sur Postman. J'ai aussi aimé le côté pratique des connaissances.
