About Patterson Consulting

Patterson Consulting, LLC was originally founded in 2001 by Boyd Patterson as Patterson Consulting Services and is located in the greater Nashville area of Tennessee. Our primary focus is to provide products and services that will enhance the automated testing experience of HP automation customers (formerly Mercury).

Mercury Certified Instructor

Boyd Patterson is recognized by Mercury Interactive as a Certified Instructor and Certified Product Consultant (Certified Professional ID# 0363-8BCDE) for the following products:

  • WinRunner®
  • QuickTest® Professional
  • Quality Center
  • LoadRunner®

The following are excerpts from the Mercury Training Website where you will find details about the certification process:

"A CI is an individual that is certified by Mercury to have demonstrated their ability to facilitate instruction with current Mercury course materials. This is an individual who won't just stand up in front of a room and read from the slides, but who can apply instructional techniques to ensure the highest degree of learning possible."
"The CPC exam certifies that candidates have demonstrated extensive knowledge and ability with Mercury Interactive products. These exams are designed for mid to senior level professionals with several years of experience in their respective fields. The CPC is a hands-on, lab-based examination using actual Mercury Interactive software. Certifications are organized by product and based on a specific release family of the software."

Prior to Mercury's transition to the CPC program, Boyd Patterson was CPS certified (Certified Product Specialist) in all offered programs including:

  • TestSuite 6.x - 7.x (included WinRunner® and TestDirector®)
  • LoadRunner® for the Web 6.x - 7.x
