Concepts

Would you like to be an instant testing expert, able to start testing effectively in new situations without delay? Would you like to spend more of your time running tests and less of your time creating the tests? Reusable test designs make it possible. This interactive course shows how to apply a systematic structured Proactive Testing approach that enables you to design much more thorough tests than traditional methods. Then, you'll discover how to convert your test designs into reusable test designs you can apply instantly in new situations. You'll develop several reusable test designs in class and be able to add more to your toolkit back on the job. Exercises enhance learning by allowing participants to utilize practical techniques to an actual case.

Participants will learn:
  • How test designs fit into the overall test planning structure and provide special advantages
  • Systematic, reliable, repeatable methods for identifying test designs to test a given system
  • Checklists and guidelines that enable you to spot the conditions traditional methods overlook
  • Converting your project-specific test designs into reusable test designs you can use for other systems
  • Applying reusable test designs to jumpstart your testing with instant expertise and effectiveness

This course has been designed for testers, managers, analysts, designers, programmers, auditors, and users who plan, oversee, and/or carryout testing of software products.
