This course provided me with an exceptional learning experience. The instructor's teaching style is outstanding. The course content is comprehensive and well-structured. It covers a wide range of topics, ensuring that learners get a well-rounded education. The hands-on examples and practical exercises were particularly helpful in solidifying my understanding and allowing me to apply the knowledge in real-world scenarios.

The course is nearly perfect. The topics were well covered with examples. The only missing part is the practical exercises. The learning process is much more effective with practice. I suggest adding exercise chapters where the first video is the description of the exercise and the following videos show your solution. Apart from that everything is excellent.

Literally, the best course for PlayWright! I like how Kaniel starts from basics and goes to advanced throughout the course. The context is super understandable and I really enjoyed every moment while learning it! Thanks!

All in all a very good course that will give a good understanding od basics. Maybe going too wide sometimes instead of focusing more on playwright and its particularities.

Overall a good introduction to Playwright. The HTML and Javascript lessons are a nice bonus for some people, and I'm sure there is someone out there who wanted to use Cucumber and/or Codecept. Not everything is covered but the missing parts are not essential and in some cases discouraged by some (like the test recorder), but are easy to find online. The CI/CD integration lessons could really be updated to run on github instead of Jenkins. But the presentation and examples are really clear and you will learn a valuable skillset.

I think Outis does a great job teaching! There have been a few instances where I've need some refreshers on the rules of JS (like using the back tick key with ${items}). Luckily, Stack Overflow reminded me haha

Since I am doing this course from office at work, some of the websites used as examples in this course are unreachable / blocked.

i dont have knowledge on typescript, so before going directly into code there should have been a basic part of typescript language

The course is very nice. A lot of things were covered. I would have liked it if there were some small assignments. Also on some of the topics, the examples were too simple.

Good course so far! Sometimes a bit hard to understand what he's saying (he has quite a strong accent).

Yes , with minimal programming background I had to google a little to setup VS code to accept npm terminal command so it was recognised (found npm path and added as environmental variable, also note my version of VSCore does not bring up many prompts seen in video, so perhaps a short setup video could be useful here for specifics like this)..I have had issues with the parameterised Jenkins not working for me having followed the setup . Therefore had to skip that section.

This course is very suitable for beginners, especially those who do not have much experience with test automation tools like me. The course is well structured. Starting from the fundamentals of Playwright and gradually advancing to E2E and Page Objects, then to the advanced topics, allowing students to understand how to build an automation testing project from scratch. The last part of the course introduces HTML and Javascript, which is very useful for learners who do not have experience in this area. I think an area for improvement is that the UI elements and locators used in the course are very simple, such as every element has its own ID. If more examples of locators for more complex UI elements can be added, the entire course will be more valuable.

I like how this course is straight to real life examples, without any unnecessary or excessive information.
