Unified Software Testing Course – A Blended Approach

Unified Software Testing Course

A Blended Approach

Variants : 3,4,5 days (The number of modules as well as detail of discussion varies based on number of days.)
Introduction

This comprehensive and unique course on software testing is what testers in today’s complex world need. The aim of the course is to cover the subject of software testing exhaustively, putting together contents and ideas from various schools of thought and various areas of research.

Why call it unified? One reason is the extent of its coverage of the subject. But the primary reason to call it unified or blended approach is the way it unifies various concepts and techniques in software testing to the extent that their projected differences would fade away during the course. The unnecessary walls that have been created between, rather the boxes into which they have been put are exposed.

Who Should Attend
This is not the course for those who look for answers as right or wrong. This course is for those who acknowledge or want to acknowledge that it is more about opinions and perspective than being right or wrong. There is no best way of doing things, there are just multiple ways of dong things. You might like one over the other, but it is essential to know about the variety that exists. The idea is to be multi-skilled so that choosing one way over another is not because of lack of knowledge but because of a calculated choice. This course is for those who are passionate about being great testers.
