This course provides in-depth coverage of the basics of software testing and the technique of testing. Students will learn from hundreds of
testing examples, with the instructor explaining each concept. In addition, students will test so many applications, starting at problem definition,
requirements analysis, system design, and the details of testing. To help students complete the project, instructor will assist students in step-by-step
execution. This course will also include a series of mock tests and technical test which help students to clear technical interview, the exam
which leads to ISTQB certificate.
Software testing is the process used to measure the quality of developed computer software. Usually, quality is constrained to such topics as
correctness, completeness, security, but can also include more technical requirements as described under the ISO standard ISO 9126, such as
capability, reliability, efficiency, portability, maintainability, compatibility, and usability. Testing is a process of technical investigation,
performed on behalf of stakeholders, that is intended to reveal quality-related information about the product with respect to the context in
which it is intended to operate. This includes, but is not limited to, the process of executing a program or application with the intent of
finding errors. Quality is not an absolute; it is value to some person. With that in mind, testing can never completely establish the correctness of arbitrary
computer software; testing furnishes a criticism or comparison that compares the state and behaviour of the product against a specification. An important
point is that software testing should be distinguished from the separate discipline of Software Quality Assurance (SQA), which encompasses all
business process areas, not just testing.
There are many approaches to software testing, but effective testing of complex products is essentially a process of investigation, not
merely a matter of creating and following routine procedure.
