AI writes the tests.
You decide if they're right.
Built for manual testers moving into automation.
Learn how to review, fix, and trust AI-generated automation — without getting lost in code.
Your job is no longer writing tests from scratch.
It's knowing whether the AI got it right.
What you'll be able to do
“You've followed the tutorials. You've watched the videos.
You can copy the code — but you still don't know if your tests are actually catching real bugs.”
Every lesson starts with something broken.
You write the assertion. You get instant AI feedback.
You move on when it works — not when the video ends.
A real bug. Your code. Instant feedback.
Everything you need in one place.
What you'll work through
20+ years in QA across automation, leadership, and enterprise software. Formerly Workday. Currently QA Manager at Enterprise Ireland.
Most automation courses assume you already know how to code. NextStepQA assumes you don't.
Is this for me?
Do I need to know JavaScript or TypeScript?
No. NextStepQA is built for manual testers with zero coding background. You'll learn to read, fix, and direct AI-generated tests naturally as you solve real bugs.
How long does it take?
Most students complete the core modules in 6–8 hours of focused work. It's designed as a weekend accelerator, not a six-month commitment.
Is this up to date for 2026?
Yes. The curriculum is built on the latest version of Playwright — the current industry standard — and focuses on the reality of testing right now: working alongside AI tools, not against them.
