Agile Testing (ICP-TST)

Building on traditional risk-based test practice we are now challenged by incremental delivery. To address but not inhibit Agility, we examine concepts like pair testing and strengthening relationships in a team setting to build a sense of common purpose.

Working in parallel with developers eliminates hand-offs and late-stage testing, and enables incremental confirmed component delivery. This program builds on what we know and adapts to what we need … Agile delivery. Agile testing opens new areas of opportunity to build strength in product quality, process improvement, and test confidence.

This 2-day course will introduce you to the Agile Testing Process, and explore Agile testing practices that you can immediately take from the classroom into the office with newfound confidence.

Upon successful completion of this course, attendees will be awarded the ICAgile Certification in Agile Testing. The ICP-TST certification can only be earned by completing a live class.
