Course software testing isn't open

Thank you for pointing this out!

The course that you linked is a new course, by different instructors. If we're recommending a new course (not simply finding where the current recommendation has moved), then we should go through an actual RFC process that recommends a course and details how it is superior to the alternatives. It looks like there are a number of options for a course on software testing.

I'll also note that the Software Debugging course is no longer offered and instead points to a Udacity Nanodegree on becoming a Site Reliability Engineer. Not something that must be addressed in the Testing RFC.

Do these links work? They may require a Udacity log-in first.

No, they redirect to "My Programs" page, and do not enroll or anything.

Confirming the links do not work for me. When I click them and I am not logged in I am asked to log in. If I click them while logged in I just see My Programs.

Seems like videos from the original course is still available under this YouTube playlist.

Thanks @sams05, I've dropped that link into the curriculum as a stop-gap.

This is still an opportune time to analyze the best course currently available. I'll leave this issue open for another 4 weeks in hopes that a contributor can compare the video playlist to the course noted above: https://www.udacity.com/course/software-analysis-testing--ud333

Closing as 4 weeks have elapsed.
