ISTQB Certified Tester<\/a><\/h2>\n

Insufficient\u00a0testing<\/strong>\u00a0or unqualified testers are frequently the root causes of poor quality software. In fact, the systematic use of solid\u00a0test techniques<\/strong>\u00a0is the exception rather than the rule in practical applications. The objective of the\u00a0ISTQB\u00ae Certified Tester<\/strong>\u00a0Program is to change this. All important testing topics are explained and simulated for training purposes. ISTQB\u00ae Certified Tester is a globally homogeneous program, and can be considered the\u00a0benchmark<\/strong>\u00a0for software testing certification.<\/p>\n

Hundreds of\u00a0experts<\/strong>\u00a0from more than 40 countries are continuously updating this program. Thanks to this close cooperation,\u00a0international compatibility<\/strong>\u00a0is always achieved. As a result, it is also possible to obtain certification as an\u00a0ISTQB\u00ae Certified Tester<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0in a wide variety of languages. At this time, GASQ offers certification at the Foundation Level in English, French, German, Polish and Russian.<\/p>\n

More than\u00a0500,000 software tester<\/strong>s are now in possession of an ISTQB compliant certification \u2013 and the number continues to grow every day. The ISTQB\u00ae Certified Tester Program provides participants with the knowledge they need to test software effectively. Our program comprises three levels: Foundation Level, Advanced Level and Expert Level.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

ISTQB Agile Tester<\/a><\/h2>\n
\n
\n
\n

Agile testing is a relatively new approach to software testing that follows the principles of agile software development as outlined in the Agile Manifesto.<\/p>\n

A tester on an Agile project will work differently than one working on a traditional project. Testers must understand the values and principles that underpin Agile projects, and how testers are an integral part of a whole-team approach together with developers and business representatives.<\/p>\n

There is a lot of confusion concerning agile testing \u2013 which means there\u2019s an educational opportunity as well. The Agile Tester certification will give the tester the knowledge to be a high-performing member of\u00a0 agile testing teams.<\/p>\n

Validity<\/strong>
\nOnce achieved, the ISTQB Agile Tester certification does not expire.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
