Introduction to Quality Center 10

The process-based functionality of Quality Center 9.2 is extended in this hands-on course. Students will learn how to manage quality information throughout the development cycle, construct and organize requirements, create and execute test sets, monitor defects, and use graphs and reports to track the success of a project.

Working knowledge of:
• Windows
• Testing concepts

At the end of the course, you will be able to:
- Create releases and cycles.
- Define requirements.
- Analyze risks associated with requirements.
- Organize subjects and tests in a test plan tree.
