Description


  2026 Update

  • Added a simple online vbscripting editor (Beta ver1)

VBScript is an Active Scripting language developed by Microsoft. VB scripting allows users to automate tasks in a Windows environment. The concepts from this course benefit regular users (wanting to experiment) and QTP/UFT professionals. VBSkills enables QA Engineers to move their efficiency to a NEXT LEVEL.    QA Engineers, QTP/UFT engineers, System Administrators, and Network Administrators use VBScripting skills to automate simple to complex daily tasks.


We will start from the basics and walk you through a learning journey to master the skills.


The course begins with variables, arrays, operates, and error handling. After you learn these basic skills, we jump into the conditional statements and loops. We have included a module to help you master the built-in functions. These built-in functions come real handy as you don't have to code that functionality.


You will also learn to work with Files, Folders, Excel Documents, and MS SQL Server.


The projects at the end of the course help you to move to the next level by pushing you to most of the skills gained in this course.


There is no replacement for hands-on coding. You will learn to code like a professional developing reusable code.


The Sample Scripts included helps students to learn quickly and experiment by modifying them. The course is well organized with High-Quality Videos, and sample scripts!!

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone who wants to automate tasks using VB Scripting in a windows environment
