Advanced Testing Techniques

Description:
There are many testing techniques available to the tester however they are rarely taught from the practitioner’s point of view. Rather than provide an overview of as many techniques as possible this course focuses on the most useful techniques that will give a measurable benefit when implemented on a testing project. The techniques are taught using examples and exercises based on real project experience. Testers will return to work with a working knowledge of the techniques taught on this course.
