I completed the basics of software testing and learned about quality control and how we, as QA engineers, can ensure that quality. I familiarized myself with software development approaches and methodologies, including Agile. Worked with requirements and defect finding techniques (test design techniques). I learned about different types of testing. I also gained experience in writing test documentation artifacts such as Test Strategy, Test Plan, Requirement Traceability Matrix (RTM), Test Cases, and practiced bug reporting. Learned about the HTTP protocol and its main methods (GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE). I got acquainted with API testing using Postman. I learned HTML syntax and basic tags, as well as working with DevTools. Also learned the basics of SQL database management and performed essential queries such as SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE. 
During the practical testing course, I worked on three projects: a Web education portal, CRM & Business marketplace, and a Taxi and ride-sharing service. 
In these projects, I dealt with requirements (User Stories, Use Cases, UML diagrams). 
Manually tested Web and Mobile Application including Sanity, Smoke, Regression, Functional, Cross-browser, Cross-platform, System testing, User Acceptance Testing;
Created QA documentation (Test Plan, Test Cases, Bug reports)

I plan to continue my education and eventually specialize in either automated testing or security testing.
