This course provides test engineers with advanced skills in test analysis, design, and execution. This hands-on course allows test engineers to define and carry out the tasks required to implement the test strategy. The course will teach attendees to analyse the system, considering the user’s quality expectations. They will learn to evaluate system requirements as part of formal and informal reviews, using their understanding of the business domain to determine requirement validity.
Attendees will know how to analyse, design, implement, and execute tests, using risk considerations to determine the appropriate test effort and priority. They will be able to report on testing progress and provide the necessary evidence to support their evaluations of system quality. Finally, attendees will learn how to implement a testing effort that supports the explicit and implicit testing objectives and receive 3 months access to Learning Tree practice questions.
