About this course

By the end of this course participants will be able to:determine the required structure and level of test condition developmentdescribe how test analysis and design, in addition to creating dynamic tests, are also static testing techniques that can be used to discover defectsexplain the concept of a test oracle and how test oracles can be used in test specificationsdescribe the pre-conditions for test execution, including testware, test environment, configuration management and defect managementdetermine from a given set of test metrics whether a test completion criterion has been fulfilledprioritise test case selection, test coverage, and test data creation, based on risk, documenting this appropriately in a test schedule and test procedureoutline the activities of a risk-based approach for planning and executing testinglist examples of typical defects to be identified by each specification-based technique, providing corresponding coverage criteriawrite test cases from given software models using the test design techniques of equivalence partitioning, boundary value analysis, decision tables, state transition testing, classification tree method, pairwise testing and use casesdescribe the principles and reasons for defect-based techniques and differentiate their use from specification and structure-based techniquesexplain defect taxonomies and their useunderstand the principle of and reasons for using experienced-based test techniques and when to use themspecify, execute, and report tests using exploratory testinganalyse a system in order to determine which specification-based, defect-based, or experienced-based techniques to apply for specific goalsexplain what testing techniques are appropriate to test for accuracy, suitability, interoperability, functional security, and accessibility characteristicsoutline, design, specify, and execute usability tests using appropriate techniques, to cover given...

This course is ideal for testers and test teams who are looking to build on their existing software testing skills. This course also prepares you to sit the ISTQB Advanced Test Analyst exam and obtain your ISTQB Advanced Test Analyst certificate, if that’s important to you.

Reading the ISTQB Advanced Syllabus prior to the course would be a great advantage.
