Effective Software Testing Methodology workshop
 

Preface:

Today one of the factors to achieve software quality is through comprehensive Testing. With crunched schedules and stringent budget, testers need structured approach to handle testing as a process through set of tools.

This course is designed for people who aspire to do the testing as a professional work to satisfy customers through effective testing.
Participants will learn how to create an effective test strategy, how to design creative test cases, how to optimize test cases to get the most testing from the fewest number of cases and how to collect metrics and analyze the report for improvements. 

Attendees will leave this course with a solid foundation for testing in situations which are very diverse and dynamic. This course is centered around a common case study which builds throughout the course. You will emerge from this three-day session knowing how to plan and conduct tests in diverse and complex environments. 

Duration: 3 Days

Objectives

This course will build on basic testing principles and introduce new methods to teach testers how to:

  • Describe the major software development lifecycles with testing process adaptation
  • Develop a test strategy
  • Write a high-level test plan
  • Develop test scripts and test cases using a wide variety of techniques
  • Create decision tables
  • Get the most testing from the least number of test cases
  • Track and control test scripts and cases
  • Assess risk from the project, technical and business perspectives
  • Describe which tools are the best to use in a particular test
  • Write meaningful test reports
  • Measure your testing efforts
  • Use the results from testing to improve the testing process and other processes
Who Will Benefit
  • Test analysts
  • Test engineers
  • Software developers
  • Project managers
  • Test lab managers
  • QA analysts

Take Away

  • Practical exposure in preparing Test Plan, Test Case, Metrics Report and Analysis
  • Sample Templates and Checklists for all testing activity
  • Exposure through testing tool to understand the testing efficiency
  • End 2 End comprehensive testing course material
