3:00Yes . Good afternoon .
3:01Good afternoon .
3:02Good afternoon .
3:03Hello . Hi there .
3:08Well , let's wait for a few more to join
3:10and we'll start . Good .
3:16Yes . Hi , how are things ? How are you ?
10:53Everything good ?
10:58Can you hear me ?
11:01Yes , professor , everything's fine . Is
11:04it coming through
11:05well ? Perfect . Well , there are quite a
11:10few of us now , so let's get started ,
11:17okay ? Well , welcome to this course on
11:22testing methodologies . Right , uh , this
11:30semester , uh , well , I'll be guiding you
11:32throughout the course , okay ? I mean ,
11:37we’re going to start from scratch ,
11:39okay ? Meaning , we’ll start from
11:46testing concepts until , well , we finish
11:48with automation and artificial
11:49intelligence , which I'll touch upon a
11:51little at the end of the course . Uh ,
11:59something that always comes up , well ,
12:01as I’ve been here at the institute
12:07for five years . Uh , what they ask me is
12:13, are we going to automate ? No ,
12:16you’ll realize by the end of the
12:18course why not . Uh , because that would
12:22be an automation course . Right , it's
12:25completely different . What I’m going
12:29to teach you is testing methodologies ,
12:32as the subject name implies , the
12:34concepts , how to design test cases , how
12:36to report a bug . Right , we’re going
12:42to see different methods , right , for
12:44testing , test plans , uh , but well ,
12:53it’s mostly about the basics . Then ,
12:56obviously , today generally the first
13:02day doesn't usually go perfectly ,
13:04because well , look , today we are 32 ,
13:07there are 45 in the class , so some
13:09students are missing . So , well , the
13:15idea for today is , uh , I’ll tell you
13:18a little bit about where I work , what I
13:20do , uh , and well , each of you can
13:22introduce yourselves . Right , then on
13:27Wednesday we’ll continue with this
13:35subject . Right , so we can start fully
13:40into it , and well , any doubts you want
13:42to clear up today , any questions you
13:44want to ask , so there's no problem , we
13:47can talk about those . So , well , first
13:52of all , for those who don’t know me ,
13:54let me introduce myself . My name is
13:56Claudio Fian , I am a systems engineer
13:58graduated from the Universidad Abierta
14:00Interamericana . Uh , the truth is I love
14:03sharing knowledge , right , but I also
14:06love to learn . I learn a lot from you ,
14:10really , even though you might say no ,
14:13but the truth is I do . Uh , I like the
14:22course to be dynamic , okay , don't stay
14:24silent if you have any questions ,
14:26because my goal is for you to
14:28understand everything I'm going to
14:30explain . I'm not coming in with a
14:33mindset of making things difficult .
14:36Actually , what I want is for it to be
14:38as understandable as possible . Right ,
14:45so well , throughout my career I've gone
14:48through different roles , okay , I worked
14:50as a manual QA , I worked as an
14:52automation QA , I worked as a functional
14:55analyst , and as a PM . Right . A and
15:06today I am in charge of a COE . Right .
15:11where I integrate the entire QA area ; I
15:14have manual QAs and automation QAs
15:16under my responsibility . Many years ago
15:22, I started as a tester at Citibank .
15:26Right , I learned from scratch there .
15:30Then I worked at Telefónica ; I worked
15:32there as a functional QA , then as a
15:34functional lead . After that , I moved to
15:42a company based in England , where I was
15:44a functional lead , and then I was
15:46promoted to QA manager for all of Latin
15:48America , and now I'm at a company that
15:50has several business units , and the
15:52most well-known one you'll recognize is
15:54Rapipago . the ones you see on the
15:59street . Right , so well , before we
16:12continue , I would like to hear from you
16:15, okay , go ahead and introduce
16:17yourselves : name , if you are working ,
16:19fine , if not , no problem at all . if you
16:26are working , where you work , what work
16:28experience you've had , okay , what you
16:30expect from this course on test
16:32methodologies , and well , if you know
16:34anything about QA or not ? Right , so
16:40well , I'm listening , guys . Introduce
16:44yourselves , feel free , don't be afraid
16:46because you're going to have to speak
16:48throughout the entire course . Who wants
16:52to start ? Hello , how are you ? Good
17:04evening . Ah , good , uh , professor , my
17:08name is Santiago and well , uh , I don't
17:10know what else I should say , I'm sorry .
17:16Uh , where , let's see if you are working
17:18, what work experience you have had , if
17:20, I mean , what you expect from the
17:22course and what you know about QA ?
17:26Ah , no , about QA , I don't know almost
17:29anything . Uh , I didn't know , I didn't
17:31even know if it involved , uh , anything
17:33about QA . That's all ; I'm currently not
17:39working , and I'm a student now at the
17:4111 , that's all .
17:44Okay , good , perfect . Who else ? Hi , my
17:49name is Bruno . Uh , I currently work as
17:53a teacher at a technical high school .
17:57Uh ,
17:58that is my only work experience for now
18:02in the Capital .
18:03Yes , at a school in San Cristóbal .
18:05Look , good .
18:07Uh , regarding testing , I took a testing
18:11course at a vocational school , uh , so I
18:15have more or less some ideas .
18:20Uh , nothing , and I hope the course is
18:22quiet , relaxed , and that everything
18:24goes well and I can pass .
18:27Good , good , perfect . Well , who else ?
18:32Hello , good afternoon . Uh , my name is
18:35Jessica . Uh , I currently work in
18:39another field , I am a registered nurse ,
18:41I don't have experience in development
18:43and well , what I hope is to keep adding
18:45knowledge . The truth is that I've heard
18:49little to nothing about testing , yes ,
18:51but I don't have knowledge yet , so
18:53nothing ,
18:57you'll learn from scratch here , no
18:59problem . Good ,
19:01I start from scratch , that is , I start
19:04from the base . Well , that's why they
19:07tell me , " And why not there ? " , I mean ,
19:10I tend to repeat things a lot , guys ,
19:12and in several ways , so , I mean , you'll
19:15hear me talk about the theory . The
19:19first part , I tell you now , is heavy ,
19:21even if you don't like it , I mean , it's
19:23theory and you have to learn it , you
19:25have to see the differences . Good , it
19:31will be done in another way later , but
19:33many tell me , " And why don't we learn
19:35automation ? " To teach automation I tell
19:39them , " Guys , just take a course and
19:41that's it . " But you have to know , for
19:45example , the minimum programming base ,
19:47okay ? If , I mean , if you are
19:50programming , I don't know , in C # , in
19:52Java , in whatever , you have to know
19:54what each thing is . Good . Because
19:58otherwise , I mean , you're going to take
20:00a course where you'll understand less
20:02than half of the things . Uh , I would
20:08like to teach automation , but I have to
20:10focus on , I mean , what the subject
20:12syllabus covers regarding automation .
20:16We are going to look at automation , we
20:18are going to look at frameworks , but
20:20obviously we aren't going to go to the
20:22machines . Good , good . Who else ? I'm
20:28Eleonora , I work in labor competency
20:30certification , I took the programmer
20:33course at the vocational school and
20:35continued with this degree , and about
20:37testing , also , very little , almost
20:39nothing , so I'm starting from scratch .
20:44Good , perfect , thanks . Who else ?
20:50Well , hello , professor . My name is Jean
20:52Luca ,
20:54I'm 30 years old . Uh , I'm currently a
20:58system administrator at a company
21:00called Verifarma . Uh , before that , I
21:04was level one technical support for 4
21:06years . I'm ready for the course , I hope
21:10to pass it and
21:15yes , obviously . I have some notions of
21:21testing , uh , because well , the
21:22environment I'm in , I work near the QA
21:25team , so I more or less squeeze
21:27knowledge out of them . Right , perfect .
21:33That's great . Well , thank you very much
21:35. Who's next ? Hi , how are you ? My name
21:43is Joana . Uh , I work in a training
21:45center , meaning in the administrative
21:48side , so as for experience in
21:49programming and all these things , right
21:51? Beyond the courses or things I've
21:54done and what I learned here in tech .
21:59Right . Well , good .
22:02That's fine , perfect . That's great .
22:06Who's next ?
22:11Come on , there are a lot of you . Hello ,
22:15professor . I'm I'm Facundo . Uh , from
22:20this subject , I hope I like it because
22:22the previous ones seemed very
22:24interesting to me and this and this one
22:26I think I'll like a lot too , or I think
22:28it will hook me . Uh , most of my work
22:33experience is in gastronomy , it has
22:35nothing to do with programming , that's
22:37why I'm very interested in this little
22:39world . And nothing else , uh , just that .
22:49Who's next ? Hi , uh , I'm Agustina , I
22:56work as a cleaning assistant in public
22:59schools , uh , dependent on the province ,
23:01besides that , I have no work experience
23:04. And for the course , I hope to be able
23:11to keep up because the truth is that in
23:19my case , I've been struggling quite a
23:21bit to keep up , but , well , let's hope I
23:23can , very little testing knowledge ,
23:24only what was talked about in the last
23:26course and I hope to understand .
23:34Okay , right . Well , who's next ? Hi , can
23:38you hear me ?
23:39Hello . Yes , I can hear you .
23:41How's it going ? Well , I'm Lucía , I'm
23:4329 years old . I've always uh worked in
23:46customer service . Currently , I work at
23:51a health food store and I don't have
23:53any testing knowledge , but , well ,
23:55nothing , eager to learn and , uh , well ,
23:57that a nice team is formed , a nice
23:59group .
24:02Right , perfect . That's great .
24:05Thank you . Could it be that you have
24:09another last name ? Lucías ,
24:13uh , no , I am listed as Lucía Vázquez
24:16in the
24:17Lucía Vázquez .
24:19Lucía Campos Vázquez if you want .
24:21Oh , let it be Campos .
24:23I'll change it now and put Luc .
24:25No , no , no , there's no problem at all .
24:27Since you weren't on the list , I'll see
24:29what
24:31because later on there might be several
24:33people missing , even if they aren't
24:34here , I'll let them know just in case .
24:36Good ,
24:37good . Or if not , there's no problem .
24:39No , no , no . That's perfect , that's
24:41perfect . I found you . Thanks .
24:43Thanks .
24:47Who else ?
24:49Hi , Professor .
24:51Hi . Uh , I'm Gonzalo . Uh , I went to a
24:56technical school , I have no experience
24:58in anything ,
25:01I didn't even have an internship , at
25:02least I didn't . I hope I can understand
25:05the course . C programming , but nothing
25:08about testing .
25:10Okay , good , no problem . Perfect . No
25:14problem learning . Good . Who else ?
25:23Tomás Cruz ,
25:25how's it going ? Yes , well , that . My
25:28name is Tomás Cruz , uh , I work in
25:30retail , I don't have work experience in
25:33IT nor do I know much about testing .
25:39What do I expect from this course ? Not
25:42to repeat it , because I am a repeater ,
25:44but I only took the first midterm . Ah ,
25:47well , it happens .
25:49No , no , it was a time issue . Yes ,
25:52because not your subject , but another
25:54one we had last semester took a lot of
25:56time and I decided to take it easier
25:58last semester .
26:00Were you here in the first semester ?
26:03Yes , yes , but I only took the first
26:05midterm .
26:07That's fine . Well , very good . Who else ?

26:35Well ,
26:36about testing , I don't have any
26:38knowledge yet , just the name , nothing
26:40more . And what do I expect , what do I
26:44hope for from the course is to really
26:46understand because sometimes there are
26:48topics that are hard for me , but I end
26:52up catching on one way or another .
26:55Well , good , perfect , great . Well , who
26:59else ?
27:01Hello , hi . Uh , my name is Ezequiel .
27:05Uh , I don't have any work experience in
27:07the IT field . Uh , and what do I expect
27:11from the course ? Uh , to learn . And
27:14about testing , the only thing I know is
27:16the concept , I mean , little to nothing ,
27:19basically .
27:20Okay . Good , very good . Good . Who else ?
27:28Come on , let's make it more dynamic ,
27:30guys . Who else ? Otherwise I'll start

27:45Someone speak up .
27:47Hello ,
27:47hi .
27:48Hello . I'm Paola . Uh , I’m a

28:01Well , very good . Who else ? Uh , well , if
28:07you want , hi , I'm K. Uh , I just
28:12finished the CFP course , so I skipped
28:14almost the second semester of the first
28:16year because I got equivalencies , so
28:19I’m here with Elio . We are two of the
28:23ones who skipped ahead , let’s say ,
28:25and I’m working for a furniture store
28:27in the social media side , all that
28:29stuff . Also , I'm a carpenter and I've
28:34worked intermittently with this . I had
28:36some jobs during the pandemic and in
28:392024 with some Mercosur companies and
28:41everything as a developer . And the last
28:44thing I did last year was video game
28:46development . Ah ,
28:50I did the diploma at UNKI , a whole year
28:52developing video games in Godot and at
28:54the CFP with Unity . So the latest thing
28:58I have in my portfolio is all video
29:00games .
29:01About testing . Do you have any
29:03testing background ? I didn't want to
29:06take the course , but the thing with
29:07short courses is that I find them too ,
29:09uh , summarized .
29:11Right .
29:11That’s why I signed up here , since it
29:13was 9 academic hours , let's say .
29:15Yes , yes ,
29:16because I signed up for one recently
29:18and it was one hour a week and it
29:19seemed like too little . It was like
29:22And it's very slow .
29:23Exactly .
29:26Right . Who else ? Thanks .
29:31Hi . I'll go if you want . Uh , well , my
29:35name is Isios , I'm 27 years old ,
29:37currently I'm working as a software
29:39developer for the city government . And
29:46about testing , uh , I only know what my
29:48colleagues do , I don't know in great
29:50depth how it's done , but that's
29:56no problem .
30:00Who else ? Let's go . Let's keep
30:03introducing ourselves , guys .
30:05Hello , how’s it going ? Daniel Duran
30:07here .
30:07How are you ?
30:08How are things ? I am 43 years old . Uh ,
30:11well , I started working in technology a
30:14year ago . My first job , uh , was level
30:19two support in an observability company
30:21and I automate the bots that monitor
30:23the applications , let's say , with
30:26Selenium and Appium . I see .
30:31And I'm studying . I started the
30:33technical degree in 2024 . I'm doing it
30:35slowly , uh , so well , I'm about , about
30:38halfway through .
30:40And where are you working ?
30:42At Atentus . It's a company from Chile
30:45that is also here in Argentina , in
30:47Mexico , and in Peru . Very good , that
30:53monitoring is more on the user's side ,
30:55let's say , on the front end where we
30:57have racks with phones that simulate
30:59the entire user journey , let's say . And
31:03well , both mobile applications and web .
31:07Well , you're the most advanced one so
31:09far .
31:10Yes , yes . up until last year . I got
31:15this first job a year ago , but I don't
31:17come from this field , I've been getting
31:19into it for a while now , but I came
31:21from a sales background , selling shoes .
31:27That's fine , no problem . Well , thank
31:30you . Who else ? Hello , Professor . I'm
31:37Agustín Vera , I'm 19 years old and I'm
31:39currently not working . As for work
31:45experience , I had an internship last
31:47year in high school at the company Exo
31:49as technical support . I wasn't there
31:53very long , though , but anyway , that's
31:57what I have so far after this course . I
32:02just hope to learn everything you teach
32:04us and pass the course well . And about
32:11testing , I don't know much more than
32:13what I saw in high school , but that
32:15wasn't much either , so I'm at your
32:17mercy .
32:20Good , who else , guys ? Hello , Professor .
32:26Can you hear me well ?
32:27Yes .
32:28I'm Bautista Carratú , I'm 19 years old
32:31. I currently work at a company that
32:35mainly sells skates in Saavedra , called
32:38Vale , regarding IT experience , as many
32:44were saying , I only had two internships
32:47, one as technical support at Exo , like
32:49Agustín . And another at a hardware
32:59wholesaler , which was also in high
33:00school , but for the course , I wouldn't
33:02know what to say ; because the area of
33:04testing is the least I've seen in
33:06general . In my 6 years of high school
33:13as a computer technician , it's what I
33:15saw the least , knowing about testing is
33:19basically zero . Good , it doesn't matter
33:22. Everyone has to start somewhere , guys
33:25. Right . Who else ?
33:38Martínez ,
33:40hello .
33:42How's it going ?
33:43My name is Juan . Currently , I'm not
33:46working , I'm searching . Regarding work
33:49experience . I have about 9 months of
33:52manual testing . Anyway , what I hope for
33:59this course is to refresh all the
34:01concepts , learn something new , and
34:07learn something that helps me move
34:09toward automation .
34:13Good , perfect , no problem . Everyone
34:17starts from zero , guys . That's how some
34:20of us started . Who else ?
34:27Hello , my name is Mariana and I don't
34:28work , I don't have experience either ,
34:30and what I hope from this course is to
34:32learn everything that encompasses
34:34testing because I don't know anything .
34:37Alright , no problem . Who else ? Let's
34:44keep going so we get ahead , guys . Can
34:46you hear me , professor ?
34:50Yes , yes , I hear you . How's it going ?
34:53Hi , my name is John . I currently work
34:55in a tobacco shop . My work experience
34:58is all in the public sector . I don't
35:02know much about testing , I just know
35:04the name , nothing more . Hmm .
35:06I’ve seen a couple of videos
35:08explained simply , but beyond that , I
35:10don't know much .
35:13Very well .
35:16Who else ?
35:20Can I go , professor ?
35:21Yes ,
35:22yes . My name is Ignacio . I am 29 years
35:25old . I've been working as a developer
35:31for about 5 years and with testing ,
35:33different methodologies , technologies ,
35:35and procedures . I've never done testing
35:41, well , only very circumstantially . And
35:45from this course , I hope to validate my
35:48knowledge a bit and gain some academic
35:50experience regarding testing .
35:55Okay , good , perfect . Thanks . Who else ?
36:07César . Arévalos isn't here . Gabriel
36:18Bergamini isn't here either . Yes ,
36:21professor , I'm here .
36:23Well , I'm listening .
36:24Hey , professor . All good . Yes , good .
36:27I work at the Coast Guard in the
36:29systems department
36:32and yes , the systems side , programming ,
36:38and after that , the course and learning
36:40. And what do you know about testing ?
36:43The only thing I know about testing is
36:45that you have to press buttons to break
36:47the system and see what happens . That's
36:52not exactly it ,
36:53huh ? Well ,
36:56it's not just pressing , touching , and
36:58seeing if it breaks . There's a whole
37:01subject behind it , but anyway . Eh , well
37:06, very good . Thank you very much . Lucas
37:11Pongio , where is he ? Hello , professor ,
37:14can you hear me ?
37:15Yes , I'm Lucas . Well , the truth is I
37:18don't currently have a job , but I have
37:20a bit of knowledge about testing , the
37:22basics , let's say .
37:23Okay .
37:25So I hope to be able to deepen that
37:26knowledge and finish the course well .
37:30Good , perfect . Thanks , Esteban Cantero .
37:38He's not here , Mario Báñez . He's not
37:43here either . Lucian Insua isn't here
37:50either . Camilo Márquez , Santiago
38:00Martínez . Nobody there .
38:02Hello , professor . Hi .
38:05Good thing someone appeared . Yes , I
38:07hear you . How are you ? All good . My
38:09name is Santiago , I'm 21 years old . For
38:13now , I'm not working . The only work
38:16experience I have is that I worked in a
38:18clothing store
38:21and about testing . I don't know ,
38:23nothing . And
38:25no problem . Just say it , guys , don't be
38:28afraid . We all start from zero .
38:36and what is accused here is learning
38:37something about the witness .
38:43Great . Thank you very much . Who else ?
38:48Is there anyone else ? Hi , professor ,
38:56can you hear me well ? There .
38:59Good .
39:00I'm Ulises . Uh , I already took the
39:03course and we saw each other recently
39:05because I tried to pass it by exam only
39:08, but , well , I couldn't . So now
39:10Ah , you're the one who took the exam .
39:13the other day . Yes , but well , last year
39:17when I took the course , the second
39:20stage got complicated because there
39:22were subjects , many exams together and ,
39:24well ,
39:25well ,
39:26and now when I took the exam I also had
39:28another subject to take and , well , it
39:30was kind of like that ,
39:32but well , especially what cost me was
39:35the last part , so I hope now this
39:37course
39:39you're already ahead , that's fine . Yes ,
39:41yes , I have some knowledge of what you
39:44taught .
39:46And well , I currently work in radio ,
39:48I'm a radio operator , right now I'm at
39:50Indalo at La Mega . I work .
39:57Good for those taking the exam only , I
39:59mean , the exam is different from the
40:01final . Right , if you want , Ulises can
40:07tell you later , he didn't do well , I
40:10mean , I have to test him on everything
40:12and expect them to know it and more .
40:16Right . I mean , it's theoretical
40:19questions , then practical , and then
40:21oral . I mean , that's the methodology ,
40:25because " free " students are expected to
40:27know everything perfectly . Right . Uh ,
40:35that's why sometimes , for now " free "
40:37students , I mean , from the questions
40:39they asked , I mean , no one made it .
40:44That's why the thing is that you have
40:46to come , if you want to take the exam
40:48only , very , very well prepared . Right ,
40:51anyone else ? I have more . Insúa ,
40:55Lucián . Ah , I already saw him . Uh ,
40:58Márquez Camilo . Martín Julio César .
41:03Professor , good evening .
41:06Good evening .
41:06Well , as I said , my name is Martín . Uh
41:09, I currently work in the contracting
41:11department , which would be part of
41:13public administration . Uh , what I know
41:16about testing , which can be manual or
41:18automated . And what I expect from the
41:23course is to be able to implement what
41:25I learn uh to use it with the
41:31Right . Great . Perfect .
41:36Right . Who else ? Masa María . Not here .
41:45Núñez Alex ? Neither .
41:50Hello . Hello . Yes , how are you ,
41:52professor ? Good evening .
41:54Good evening .
41:54Uh , well , yes , I am Alexander Meléndez
41:57. Uh , I am almost 40 years old . Uh .
42:05Uh , some time ago I took a testing
42:07course , but I don't remember very well
42:09if I did some tests uh . let's say with
42:14I think with Selenium , I don't remember
42:16very well , uh a while ago , quite a
42:18while , about 5 years ago I took the
42:20course , but I never finished it ,
42:24right ? What I know is what I saw in the
42:26course here at the institute .
42:29Okay , good . Well , that's fine . It will
42:33be useful to you .
42:34Well ,
42:35something will be useful . You would be
42:37missing the theoretical part , which is
42:39what I'm going to give you at the
42:40beginning , but something will be useful
42:42to you .
42:42Perfect . Thanks .
42:44Well , thanks to you , Cristiano Ocampo ,
42:51Ríos Gastón , Ríos Lucía , there's no
42:58one . Claudio Romanuc perhaps . Tolosa
43:09Carlos they aren't here , guys . I have a
43:19Villegas and I think it has the ID
43:21number after . That I think I'm going to
43:24have to change . Is Villegas here ? I
43:26don't know if it's , I don't know who it
43:28is , but I only have the last name
43:30Villegas . Elías chat .
43:42Okay , you are going to have to change
43:46it because Good . Well , with no one uh
43:59else . So well , let's start then . Uh ,
44:12before starting this , I'll give it to
44:14you Wednesday because the idea isn't to
44:16start today . Good , although we are
44:19quite a few today , there's quite a lot ,
44:22sometimes it's not my idea to start
44:24today . Good , but uh let's start
44:30Wednesday . Good . Uh , more than anything
44:34today to see uh enter the virtual
44:36classroom , good , inside the virtual
44:38classroom , you look at that yourselves .
44:42It's already uploaded , the syllabus is
44:44uploaded . That yes , the syllabus now
44:53I'm going to share it with you , so this
44:55way later if you have any type of doubt
44:57uh we will look at it . Wait for me to
45:07open the syllabus , so I can present it
45:09to you . Uh , go entering the virtual
45:21classroom so you can see it well . Uh ,
45:26if you have any questions or something .
45:30Well , here what it tells you is what
45:32things we are going to see , the
45:33objectives of the course . Good , what
45:38things we are , concepts we will be
45:40seeing , the contents that later I will
45:42be talking about on Wednesday . Good ,
45:47that is , it is divided into blocks of
45:49what is the management and the
45:50execution of the tests . This in broad
45:53strokes . Good , I here what I leave you
45:57well are these uh if you want to see
46:05something of what is this introduction
46:07to quality , good , they are YouTube
46:09videos that will serve as additional
46:11input to what I give you within the
46:13subject . Good , at least these first
46:18three which is the introduction , what
46:20we are going to talk a lot about is in
46:22Agile . Now we are going to dive in a
46:26little bit , I'm going to tell you about
46:28something briefly . Testing general
46:31concepts . Right . And this one , yes ,
46:34this one on automation . Uh , sometimes ,
46:39what happens ? Sometimes , guys , I have a
46:42lot of holidays like this semester , and
46:44sometimes I can go over it with you ,
46:46and if not , I'll tell you to watch it
46:49yourselves . Right , once I've taught you
46:52all about automation , you'll be able to
46:54watch this video . Don't start watching
46:57it now , okay , because honestly you'll
47:02only understand half of it . And the one
47:06on APIs , too . Right . Uh , well , here is
47:16how the course and the evaluations will
47:18work . Regarding evaluations , obviously
47:24to pass you need to get a seven .
47:27Between four and seven you go to the
47:29final , less than four you fail . " I
47:33already got this ... " we'll discuss this
47:36because , well , it always happens . I got
47:39a seven on the first one and a five on
47:41the second . Can I retake it if you show
47:45up on the makeup date ? And obviously
47:51I'll test you to see if you can pass .
47:55But be careful , because obviously , I
47:58always say the same thing : I erase that
48:00grade and put in the grade you get that
48:02very day . Right , if you got an eight ,
48:08congratulations , you're passing , you
48:10can get the same grade or not , or you
48:12could end up failing . Right , watch out
48:16for that . Right , I respect that , but
48:20we'll talk about this in the second
48:22stage after the first midterm . Right ,
48:26but this is general . I imagine that for
48:29all the the courses it must be the same
48:34. Uh , how is this subject taught ? Here
48:39you have the dates . Right , we are going
48:41to have this . I'm giving you this ; it
48:45is generally followed , but it is
48:47tentative . Right , to start looking at
48:51class one . You will see later in the
48:57virtual classroom where you have this ,
48:59and you can see , I'm treating it as
49:01week , week one . Right , the presentation
49:07will be there . Also , week two you will
49:10have this , and so on . If you want , go
49:13into the virtual classroom now , later
49:15when I let you , we'll see . The thing is
49:18, I see it differently than you do .
49:20Right , uh , you'll see it differently
49:24where it says week one . If you click it
49:27, you will open that day's presentation
49:29. Right . Uh , we will be looking at
49:35quality attributes , the seven
49:36principles , test levels . We will have
49:41three assignments throughout the course
49:43. The assignments will help you with
49:47the practical part of the midterm exam .
49:49It is important that you complete them .
49:52Right , how do we start the assignments ?
49:55I base the assignments on everyday life
49:57. The first one is so you can start to
50:01understand what testing is about . So ,
50:04don't worry , because we are starting
50:06from scratch . Uh , we are going to look
50:12at the software development process and
50:14methodologies . Something I will be
50:19talking to you about is agile
50:21methodologies . I took a course many
50:26years ago in England about that
50:27methodology . I'll tell you , in 2011 , a
50:34long time ago , when it was the
50:36beginning of how agile methodology
50:38started to be treated in development .
50:44So I have many years of experience .
50:48From then on , I always worked with the
50:50methodology , and what I always say is
50:52that agile methodology isn't just
50:54what's written down , but what each team
50:56adapts to without breaking the
50:57methodology's rules . Uh , I will be
51:05presenting that to you , and we will
51:07also look at methodologies , obviously
51:09for the testing area . Here , obviously ,
51:14I have the dates of what we will be
51:16covering . Well , you can see it later in
51:21the virtual classroom , but anyway , we
51:23will have assignment 2 before the first
51:25midterm . Right , the idea is for us to
51:31have the first midterm on September
51:3330th , and obviously , the exam is in
51:35person . Good . Uh , well , we talked a
51:43little bit , we'll talk more about the
51:45midterm later because surely you will
51:47have questions . And well , obviously
51:51later we have the life cycle , final
51:54test report , types , uh , test plan ,
51:56white box , black box techniques , and
51:59obviously we finish with the subject of
52:02automation . After that , we have the
52:07second midterm , which is on November
52:0916th . Right . And then we have the
52:13make-up exams on the 18th . Right . Uh , I
52:22haven't uploaded the updated one yet ,
52:24because the idea is to have it on
52:26Wednesday , well , I'll change it later .
52:32But , uh , I uploaded a PDF indicating
52:35that I was going to give it to you on
52:37Mondays , but it's better on Wednesdays .
52:40Right , because I coordinated with
52:42Viviana , who is from the other . Later ,
52:50you check the issue of what the other
52:52subject you have on Wednesdays is
52:54called , communication . Could be . Are
52:58you taking it ? Communication Workshop .
53:04Many of you here are taking that one . I
53:08am .
53:08Yes .
53:09Well ,
53:10perfect . Well , talk to them . I will set
53:15things up to coordinate that same day .
53:19I told Ana , I think her name is Ana . I
53:27will leave the information about when
53:29I'm testing her in the chat , so you can
53:31also coordinate with her to go on the
53:33same day for her part , I don't know how
53:35she tests . Right , but that would be the
53:42idea . Okay , any questions so far ? No ,
53:52no , professor ,
53:54no .
53:55Not for now .
53:56Good . Well , uh , what else ? Did you go
54:09into the virtual classroom ?
54:15Yes . No , well ,
54:16yes , professor , but for example , about
54:18the weeks you mentioned the block would
54:20arrive , it didn't arrive ,
54:24you know ? You said there was a section
54:25in the syllabus , I think , for week one
54:27and it takes you to the side . No ,
54:32either I can't find it or it's not
54:33working .
54:34It says , it says presentation . I
54:36already looked for it , I see it now . Uh
54:40, expand it .
54:43Ah ,
54:44there it is . I'm presenting it now . I
54:46don't know if you see it exactly like
54:48this .
54:49Good . So , what you have here is the
54:51link to join the Meet . Another thing I
54:54was going to tell you is to join
54:56Telegram . Right , you click here and it
54:59will automatically join you . Because
55:03later I'll tell you about the Telegram
55:05thing . Telegram is for us to
55:07communicate , and if you want , you can
55:10also ask questions among yourselves ,
55:12that's no problem , but generally , what
55:14happens ? Why do I do it ? I mean , on
55:20Telegram , obviously those of us who
55:22work , well , those who don't work , but I
55:24always respect people's schedules . What
55:29happens ? Because it happened to me in a
55:32lot of courses until I started changing
55:34this . I start the classes at 7:00 PM ,
55:40right , I don't start at 4:30 PM . For
55:44one , I might end up running late . There
55:47are people who told me , " I'm traveling
55:49on the bus . " There were people who told
55:51me they were , I mean , students who were
55:53on the train . So , half an hour isn't
55:57going to change the outlook for me ,
55:59guys . I prefer you to be sitting down
56:03watching it because otherwise , on your
56:05phone on the street , your phone could
56:07get stolen . Right , even that . So the
56:11idea is the following , that we start at
56:167:00 PM . I will be logging in at 6:50
56:20PM . In case I have any kind of issue ,
56:25I'll tell you , " Guys , we're starting at
56:277:30 PM because I was delayed by
56:29something at work , for X reason . " Right
56:36, but I'll log on at 6:50 PM , and we'll
56:39start at 7:00 PM . Right , at 7:00 , don't
56:46join at 7:05 because , I mean , I'll be
56:48left hanging , right ? Please be
56:52responsible and join at 7:00 because I
56:55start right at 7:00 . A That's one thing
57:03. So join the Telegram , right , and you
57:07can see it there easily , besides , I'll
57:09be telling you , " Hey , remember that
57:11such-and-such day is the first midterm
57:13so you don't forget , and everything
57:16else . " Like I told you , here is the
57:21syllabus ; I have to update it with the
57:23new dates . Uh , and here we have the
57:30weekly presentations . Right . Uh , where
57:34we have week one here . If you click on
57:38week one , it will automatically open
57:40and take you to the presentation . Right
57:44.
57:45Yes . Yes . Perfect . Is that clear to you
57:49, or not ? And so on , obviously with all
57:54the weeks , week two , week 2.1 . Why ?
57:58Because there are two presentations . We
58:02have week 3 , week 4 , week 4.1 , and so
58:05on , you have them here for each one of
58:08them . Uh , some people keep them open ,
58:19and I just tell you , but I generally
58:21present the slides and talk you through
58:23them so you can take notes . Right . What
58:32do I put on the midterms ? What I told
58:35you in class , guys . I mean , I don't go
58:41off on tangents , I don't give you
58:42random stuff like , " Hey , you have to
58:45read this book , " we see it all in class
58:47and I test you on things from class .
58:53Right . Uh , what else ? Well , any
59:02questions so far ? The Telegram link
59:08tells me it's expired , if it's updated .
59:13Don't tell me .
59:14It let me in just now , eh ?
59:18Yes , I already joined . Uh ,
59:23who spoke to me saying they couldn't
59:27get in ?
59:30Me , Ulises .
59:32Mm . Maybe it's because I always use the
59:36same one .
59:43Yes , professor , the same thing is
59:45happening to me .
59:46Yes , but maybe Ulises , since I removed
59:49you , it won't let you in , eh ? What's
1:00:03your username , Ulises ?
1:00:08What ? The email .
1:00:10No , no , wait , I see a bunch of you are
1:00:13adding yourselves . We're getting more
1:00:15and more . It didn't let you in .
1:00:18No , it says something like the link , it
1:00:20says join group , and when I want to
1:00:22join the group , it tells me the link is
1:00:24broken . Try this : add members . How are
1:00:33you on Telegram ? Like this , you
1:00:36Oh , let me check , I forgot , I don't
1:00:38know . Let me check . I'll find you
1:00:50anyway . Message me if you messaged me
1:00:55privately before .
1:01:01Yes , but I think it deleted me because
1:01:03I don't see any chats from that . Uh ,
1:01:07actually , I hadn't deleted it because I
1:01:09planned to sign up , so I don't know
1:01:11what happened now . I don't have it .
1:01:20Well , let me see . Send it by mail to
1:01:24see how I can add you and I'll check to
1:01:28see , let's see . Auto-nations . Uh , you
1:01:42talked to me , you told me , " No , but I
1:01:44don't have you . "
1:01:47I think I do . I am Ulises MG on
1:01:50Telegram . @ulises MG
1:01:57Ulises MG . I'll try to see how I can
1:02:17add you . Well , any questions , guys ?
1:02:41For now .
1:02:46Okay . Good . No , one question .
1:02:51Good , perfect . You saw the virtual
1:02:54classroom . You don't have any questions
1:02:57about that ? Everything is fine . I have
1:02:59to upload the new stuff . Good . Like
1:03:08that . Kevin Puentes . Good .
1:03:12Yes . I have a question . Are we going to
1:03:14work individually or together ? You know
1:03:15, there are subjects where they form
1:03:17groups and you work like that , with
1:03:19groups or
1:03:22uh the thing is this . The first and
1:03:31second assignments are individual . The
1:03:38third one , I mean , the level of
1:03:39complexity keeps increasing . The third
1:03:45one , you will do in groups , okay ? Uh ,
1:03:50so don't worry , you'll get to do it .
1:03:54So , for the first midterm , it's mostly
1:03:56individual , and for the second , it's
1:03:58better if we have work groups set up ?
1:04:01For the third , not the second . Right ,
1:04:05for the third , yes . No , no , I'm talking
1:04:07about midterms , because I think the
1:04:09first midterm covers the first and
1:04:11second assignments , right ?
1:04:14Uh , yes , but since the midterm isn't a
1:04:17group one ,
1:04:18right ? I know , but I mean for studying
1:04:21or focusing
1:04:22because I was asked that once , that's
1:04:24why .
1:04:25No , I don't know , the midterms are
1:04:27individual ,
1:04:29eh ? Yes , yes , yes . I mean , the first
1:04:34assignment is individual , the second
1:04:36one too , and the third one is actually
1:04:39for you to uh , do it in groups . Right .
1:04:47I was mostly thinking for study
1:04:48purposes , you know ? If it's more
1:04:50complex , it’s also good to have study
1:04:52groups ready .
1:04:55Right . Yes . Uh , what’s more , the
1:05:01thing is that sometimes , let’s see ,
1:05:03people drop out during the course and I
1:05:05can't tell you now , hey , it will be
1:05:07groups of six or seven people .
1:05:14Sometimes I’ve had 55 students and
1:05:16few dropped out , so I see as the course
1:05:19progresses . Exactly . Good .
1:05:23Perfect .
1:05:26Uh , well . Anyone else , guys ? Any
1:05:39questions ? I have a question , Professor
1:05:46, about the schedule . You said it
1:05:49started at 7 in general and from there
1:05:52not in general . Uh , it will always be
1:05:55like that .
1:05:56Right , right , always
1:05:57good .
1:05:58Uh , and from there until 10:30 , or does
1:06:01it end earlier ? Because we had subjects
1:06:05where it wasn't all the hours the
1:06:07school said , but less . Uh , yes , fine .
1:06:16Uh , let’s see , uh , the idea is the
1:06:19following , I mean , uh , we start at 7:00
1:06:22PM . Right , I’m going to give you , uh ,
1:06:26everything related to the theory . The ,
1:06:32the idea is this , that you on
1:06:34Wednesdays , right , can can you hear me ?
1:06:44Yes , we were listening . Good , good . No ,
1:06:47no , because I disconnected something
1:06:49and I thought , maybe it uh , the idea is
1:06:57that on Wednesdays you can also do the
1:06:59assignments , or sometimes what I do is
1:07:01review well to , uh I tell you to review
1:07:10all the theory . But why do I do that ?
1:07:16Because , uh , I’ll tell you this right
1:07:19now . Uh , keep in mind that the first
1:07:24part is heavy , guys . It’s theory , you
1:07:28have to know it . So , if you wait until
1:07:33the last day , you won’t do well on
1:07:35the midterm , guys , because there will
1:07:37be a lot of theory . Right , I’m
1:07:45telling you this so you know , because
1:07:47otherwise it will get complicated , it
1:07:49won't be simple . I mean , you’ll be
1:07:58pulling your hair out and you won’t
1:08:00have a good time . So , what is the
1:08:05I , on Wednesdays
1:08:07we can't hear you well . Hello .
1:08:10Now yes .
1:08:13Ah , well , the idea is that on
1:08:15Wednesdays you can review yourselves or
1:08:17do the assignments . Why ? Because in the
1:08:23midterms , both the first and the second
1:08:26, I test you on , uh , theory and
1:08:28practice . Right , so , and you must have
1:08:33the practice down , no matter what , to
1:08:35reach a passing grade . Right . I'll
1:08:41likely explain that part later when we
1:08:43get to the bar , but you'll need to have
1:08:45the theory part as well . So , with all
1:08:53this , uh the idea is for you to take
1:09:02advantage , right , we have a synchronous
1:09:04class , synchronous , uh , on Mondays and
1:09:06Wednesdays , right , and you can work on
1:09:09it . Right . More than anything , I do
1:09:19this , guys , for you and to help you
1:09:21because , I mean , the first part is
1:09:23heavy , it has a lot of theory , and the
1:09:26second part too . Right , the second part
1:09:31, I mean , it’s different , but a lot
1:09:34of things are added . Right . Uh ,
1:09:46any questions , anything you want to ask
1:09:48?
1:09:50Uh , yes . So , the Wednesday schedule is
1:09:53more of a review , let's say , of what
1:09:56was seen on Monday . So , Mondays from 7
1:09:58to 10:30 straight through ,
1:10:01both Mondays and Wednesdays will be the
1:10:03same . Right , at 7 PM because , I mean ,
1:10:05whoever works doesn't work on Monday
1:10:08and Wednesday , no .
1:10:09Yes . No , I'm thinking about the
1:10:11question the classmate had about the
1:10:13closing time , let's say , because maybe
1:10:1510:30 and there’s someone ...
1:10:17No , I’m going to tell you the truth ,
1:10:19guys . 10:30 , no , I'll cut it . Right ,
1:10:21I’ll cut it earlier . Right . The idea
1:10:27is to do it at the beginning and , uh ,
1:10:29not suffer as much . Right , because yes ,
1:10:36I mean , my idea is to start Mondays at
1:10:387 and give you all the theory . Right .
1:10:43And finish and that's it . If I see that
1:10:49— let me repeat — this semester we
1:10:51have a ton of holidays on Mondays , more
1:10:54than usual . Why ? Because September 21st
1:11:02falls on a Monday , so we don't have
1:11:04that day . Right , so that's already one
1:11:08day less . Besides , we have next week ,
1:11:11Monday is a holiday , and then we have
1:11:13the Monday of October 12th . So , it
1:11:18means , I mean , we have a lot of
1:11:20holidays , but I’ll repeat , I won't
1:11:22test you on anything I didn't teach you
1:11:25. Right . Uh , another thing I’m
1:11:33remembering is , guys , I don't record
1:11:35the classes . Right . The idea is for you
1:11:39to be here . Why ? Because sometimes , uh ,
1:11:47things come up during the course , in
1:11:50class , and we start discussing things ,
1:11:52and well , I mean ,
1:12:00it's cutting out for you .
1:12:03Again . It's cutting out .
1:12:04Like , sometimes I can hear you .
1:12:08Yes , can you hear me ?
1:12:10Now , yes .
1:12:13M ,
1:12:16now it’s not audible .
1:12:19Now
1:12:24no ,
1:12:25not now .
1:12:27Hello .
1:12:28Goodbye .
1:12:30Good . Uh , so , uh , as I was saying , I
1:12:37mean , guys , we aren't going to be here
1:12:39until 10:30 at night , rest assured .
1:12:43Perfect .
1:12:43Good . Uh , any other questions you might
1:12:49have ?
1:12:53Yes , a classmate in the chat was asking
1:12:55if the midterms are on a computer or
1:12:56with paper and pen . Paper and pencil .
1:13:04No computers , guys .
1:13:06Okay , thanks .
1:13:13Anyone else ?
1:13:19No , no . We got a classroom , luckily .
1:13:22No , no ,
1:13:24no .
1:13:25Not for now . Okay ,
1:13:26they'll come up soon .
1:13:29Okay , good . Uh , let's see if I can ,
1:13:37well , we'll start later , but I wanted
1:13:39to see if I can add myself to t the two

1:16:08professor . What if you make a new one
1:16:11and paste the link here and we send the
1:16:12new link to the same methodology group ?
1:16:16Yes , I didn't want to set it up . Sure ,
1:16:18but so no one is left out , because
1:16:20there's another classmate , John
1:16:22Escalante , who said he can't either
