Hey guys, so let's begin and we start with JavaScript for testers. First of all, who is this course for? So this course is for the very, very beginner. So if you never wrote any single line of JavaScript or TypeScript in your life, or don't have any other prior programming experience, then in this course, you will learn all those needed fundamentals to start writing automated tests. So if the terms like constants, variables, loops, conditions, different logical operators, functions, arguments of the functions, if the stuff that I just mentioned, you are not sure about how to use it and what I'm actually talking about, then you need this course. If those terms sounds familiar to you, if you have prior programming experience even with other languages, I think you can comfortably skip this course and go further in this program. If not, please stay tuned because in less than two hours, you get the needed fundamentals that not only applicable for the test automation and JavaScript. They are applicable for any programming language because we will learn the very basic things. Everything you need to know to become successful as automation engineer. JavaScript actually can go a lot beyond the just 10 lessons. But we don't need this. We need just to write automated script. We are not going to do the front-end development with the web frameworks or something like this. So we don't need that extensive knowledge of JavaScript and TypeScript. We need just fundamentals to start writing automated tests. And so in this quick course, you will learn this. And few words how to follow this course. So first of all, follow the lectures one by one because they are organized in this specific order. Second thing is that below the lecture, you will see the self-assessment or quiz. So you can complete the quiz, answer the questions. And if you answer everything right, then it means that you understood everything correctly what was mentioned in the lecture. If you made the mistakes, then I recommend to re-watch the video to fill the gaps and then complete the quiz again, making sure that you understood everything correctly. And if you still had some questions or something will be not clear, you can use Slack and ask the questions in Slack. I will be able to provide the support. And that's pretty much it. So enjoy the learning process, and I'll see you in the next lesson.
