Advanced Software Testing

This course is designed for software testers that want to go deeper than the basic concepts. Attendees will learn how to create an effective test strategy, how to design creative test cases, how to optimize test cases to get the most testing from the fewest number of cases and how to measure and report the results of testing. Attendees will leave this course with a solid foundation for testing in situations which are very diverse and dynamic. This course is centered around a common Case Study which builds throughout the course. Advanced Software Testing will help you reach the next level in your testing skills. You will emerge from this three-day session knowing how to plan and conduct tests in diverse and complex environments.
