"From the first contact, we were thrilled with the speed and willingness with which the course preparation was communicated by Pumpedu. Praise belongs to the lecturer for his very friendly approach and excellent knowledge of the issue, including related topics. The content of the course met the ISTQB syllabus 100% and we got acquainted with many practical examples and valuable tips for passing the exam. The supplied training materials are very clearly processed and contain a large number of illustrative test questions, including annotated answers. We will be happy to choose Pumpedu again for future courses."
