Software Testing

Software testing is becoming increasingly important. Many companies would like to develop their employees in this area, but shy away from the cost and scope of ISTQB certification. Instead, we offer you freely combinable modules on the subject of testing that allow you to customise a training course to your needs.

Test basics

Gain basic knowledge about software testing

Modular

Content tailored to your needs

Experienced testers

Our trainers are experienced and certified testers themselves

The training price includes detailed training documentation, which each participant receives at the start of the seminar.

The maximum number of participants is limited to 12 in order to guarantee optimum learning success.

This training is only available as in-house training with the desired combination of modules.

The following modules are available to you and can be freely combined. Our staff are experienced in all facets of software testing. Please do not hesitate to contact us if the modules offered should not exactly meet your requirements, and we will find a solution together. If you are not sure about which modules fit best for your company or project, we are also able to support you to make the right decision in an individual workshop.

Software testing and standards
The range of subjects in the field of software testing has grown tremendously in the past few years. Participants in this module will learn about the various methods of software testing and how they are incorporated into development processes and standards.

Duration: 1/2 day

Content:

ISO/IEC/IEEE 29119 “Software and systems engineering – software testing”

Fundamental test process

Test documentation

Requirements from safety-related rules and standards

ISO 26262 and ASPICE
Requirements engineering as a basis for functional testing
The most important thing about testing is to define which behaviour is to be interpreted as correct or desirable. It is therefore indispensable to take the requirements into consideration for testing – they provide the basis against which the functional behaviour of software can be evaluated.

Duration: 1/2 day

Content:

System and system context

Determining requirements

Documenting requirements

Requirements template

Models

Verifying, coordinating and managing requirements

Tools
Controlling the test process using key indicators
This module familiarizes the participants with the basics of test management. They learn the commonly used metrics and how to utilize these in the process.

Duration: 1/2 day

Content:

Test management (test organization, test planning, testing strategy, error management)

Test metrics: Selection and representation

Test coverage (requirements level, code level)

Product, process, and system metrics

Residual error forecast, residual error estimate

Mutation analysis and other methods

Tools
Test first
Write automated tests first and then the software? This may seem to be paradoxical, but more and more often turns out to be an excellent testing strategy in many areas. This module introduces the participants to the various Test First approaches, and they can experience these directly in hands-on exercises.

Duration: 1 day

Content:

Test First vs. Test Last

Test-driven development

Classic style

Mockist style

Executable specifications

Ubiquitous language

Acceptance test-driven development vs. behavior-driven development

Specification by example

Tools
Objectives of tests and methods

Duration: 1/2 day

Content:

Test case identification, test procedure, test analysis and evaluation.

Test levels

Component test

Integration test

System test

FAT

SAT

Test types

Functional test

Non-functional test

Structure-based test

Black-box and white-box tests
