Frequently asked questions
How to start learning, practise and find the material you need.

Getting started and access
Do I need to pay for courses?
Published courses are free. Register, sign in and add a course to your learning. You do not need a payment card to access the material.
Why can I only see the programme while signed out?
Guests can browse lesson and topic titles. Signing in and adding a course unlocks explanations, exercises, quizzes and learning files, with progress saved to your account.
Where should a beginner start?
Start with the main QA course and follow its programme. First understand the requirement and expected result, then reproduce the example and attempt the independent exercise. Use that foundation for the specialist courses.
How do I create an account?
Open registration and enter your first name, last name, email and a password of at least eight characters. If the email is already registered, use sign-in. Keep your learning in one account.
Learning and quizzes
How do I save my place?
Use the save-position control inside the material. Your account lets you resume from the last saved place. Check your quiz result before moving on to the next material.
How do quizzes work?
Read each prompt and select every required answer: some questions have multiple correct choices. After submission, you can see the result and available explanations. Each quiz sets its own passing score.
Can I repeat a quiz?
Yes. Repeat practice is available in the result section. Read the explanations, revisit the related lectures and try again without looking at the answers. Aim to explain the decision rather than memorise an answer position.
Can I switch languages?
Yes. Ukrainian and English are available through the switcher at the top of the page. Use the same account: switching languages does not create a separate learner.
Examples and laboratories
Where are the laboratory files and figures?
Sign in, open the relevant material and find its laboratory files and figures section. Several lectures may link to the same laboratory. Start with the README in your chosen language inside the archive.
How should I approach practice?
Reproduce the baseline example, write down the expectation, change one condition and compare results. Keep the input data, run command and conclusion. For a deliberate fault, explain which check detected it.
Where should load tests run?
Laboratory scenarios target your own local environment. Keep the supplied load limits and start with one user. Testing another person’s or a production system requires a separately agreed target, boundaries and permission.
What if my numbers differ from the example?
Compare versions, data, resources and run settings. Exact performance timings depend on the environment. Check behaviour, errors and repeatability rather than adjusting the experiment to match a picture.
Is reading the lectures enough to become a specialist?
You need independent practice: design checks, explain risks, collect evidence and defend conclusions. Complete the capstone projects against their rubrics. A completion percentage alone does not demonstrate professional competence.
Suggestions and help
How do I suggest a lecture change?
Select “Suggest an improvement” inside the material. Its context is attached automatically. Choose a reason, describe the issue and suggest a concrete example or the explanation you expected.
Where can I see a response to my suggestion?
Open “My suggestions” in your account to see its status and any response. Suggestions are not published to other learners. “Planned” does not mean a delivery date has been set.
What makes a useful suggestion?
Include the title or relevant explanation, your current understanding, the specific difficulty and the addition you want. For example: “I cannot distinguish p95 from the mean; please calculate both for ten requests.” Do not include secrets.
How can I get in touch without an account?
The contact page has a message form for your name, email, subject and description. Use it for website questions or sign-in difficulties. A separate callback form is also available.
Account and navigation
What if I forget my password?
Use the password-recovery page. If it reports that recovery is unavailable, send a contact message. Never send anyone your password, access code or password-reset link.
How do I delete my account?
Open account deletion from your account and read its stated consequences. Verify your identity and confirm the action. Learning records and account-linked suggestions are removed; this action is different from signing out.
Where can I find the site sections?
The site map links to the main pages, published course programmes and help sections. It is linked from every page’s footer. Open private material through your course after signing in.
Still need help?
Describe the situation in the contact form. To improve a lecture, submit a suggestion from its page.
