This course is your ultimate guide to understanding the principles, techniques, and practices of software testing.
What you'll learn
Fundamental principles, concepts, and approaches that guide the practice of software testing. These foundations are essential for ensuring that software meets its requirements and functions as intended.
How this framework ensures that the software meets quality standards and fulfills customer requirements.
The Test Process is a structured approach to software testing that ensures consistency, quality, and efficiency throughout the testing lifecycle.
Testing is a collaborative effort requiring a blend of technical skills, effective practices, and seamless teamwork. Each aspect contributes to achieving high-quality software while meeting timelines and maintaining efficiency.
Static and dynamic testing are two primary methods used in software testing. They serve different purposes and are conducted at various stages of the software development lifecycle to identify defects and ensure software quality.
Testing levels and types are integral to the software development lifecycle, ensuring that the software meets quality standards at different stages and in various dimensions.
Test design techniques are systematic approaches used to create test cases that ensure comprehensive coverage of the software under test. These techniques help identify potential defects efficiently while optimizing testing efforts.
Effective testing involves careful planning, efficient management, and continuous monitoring. These activities ensure that testing aligns with project goals, is executed smoothly, and delivers quality outcomes.
The process of identifying, analyzing, prioritizing, and mitigating risks that could impact the quality, timeline, or success of the testing process or the final software product.
Test automation aims to increase efficiency, reduce human error, and improve the repeatability of testing processes, especially for repetitive and regression tests.
