Ruby - training for automated testing users

Another one for our FAQ, perhaps?

Q: I have a question about the course 'Learning to Program in Ruby - training course'. I would like to know whether this course can be attended by people who don't have any Programming Knowledge or experience, and also whether this course can be helpful for Manual Testers who wants to learn Ruby for Automation testing purposes.

A: Hi ... the answers are "yes" and "yes".

1. The "Learning to program in Ruby" course which you ask about is specifically designed for delegates without prior programming experience; we offer shorter course - "Ruby Programming - for delegates who have prior programming experience and so don't need to spend the extra time on the basics.

2. The course is suitable for automated testing users - if you're using Watir or Selenium, for example. However, it does not include coverage of the test environments themselves, which is a quite different subject to the programming language (Ruby) element. Ruby is used in a lot of applications - most notably Ruby on Rails (a web framework that you did not ask about) and many courses cover Ruby only as used in Rails. Our course is significant in that it's much more general.
