Overview

Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is a product development and operational management procedure that analyzes potential types of errors in a system by determining the likelihood and effects of errors and classifying them based on similarities.

This course provides software testing professionals with the opportunity to learn and implement the FMEA methodology.

Training on FMEA in software testing is of great importance for the following reasons:

Improving risk management skills: Risk management is crucial in software testing processes. The FMEA course equips participants with the skills to identify, analyze, and manage potential risks. It enables testers to prioritize their testing efforts on critical areas, thus providing proactive risk management.

High-Quality Software Development: This course enables us to conduct software development tests more effectively. By learning the analysis methods of FMEA, we have the opportunity to identify weaknesses in the design or implementation phase of the software at an early stage. This helps us improve the quality and reliability of the software, enabling us to develop more robust and high-quality products.

Compliance with Industry Standards: Many industries specify that implementing risk management techniques like FMEA is a requirement. Therefore, the FMEA course is an important step for compliance with industry standards. Taking FMEA training can help software testers understand and fulfil these compliance requirements.

Cost Reduction: By using FMEA to identify and manage risks proactively, companies can avoid costs associated with post-release bug fixes, customer support expenses, and reputation damage.

Career Development and Advancement: This course can contribute to participants' career development by enhancing their skills.

In general, integrating FMEA into software testing training provides testers with fundamental techniques for effectively identifying, analyzing, and mitigating risks, leading to higher-quality software products and improved customer satisfaction.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
