  1. HI Ravikiran,

    Thank you for this study guide. Some of the documentation is hard to understand. They might have translated through a program or google translate. I am taking the Beta CTAD exam at the Linux Foundation next week. I have also done the free LF TARS course on Edx.org. I don’t know if you have taken that course or not but if you have would you say that it would be enough to pass this exam? Again thank you for you efforts, I think you are the only person who has made a study guide for this so it is much appreciated. cheers Geoff
