I really don't get anything Chris says. Is there a preliminary course on php test?

I want to learn php test, but watching Chris's course makes me really frustrated. Do someone feel the same as I do? Are there any other courses that are easier to follow?

+1 on your comment, Qing Ma. This course especially feels a bit out of place in the Learn PHP Track. The learning from one course to the next is nice and sequential up to this point - Hampton Paulk's "Building Websites with PHP" is already a touch harder than the rest, but one can muddle through at a pinch. This course is way beyond anyone who doesn't have any php experience beyond what was covered in the track so far.
