Description

This comprehensive program is methodically structured to provide a mastery of software testing, covering techniques essential for modern software engineering. We begin by establishing the critical role of software testing within the broader discipline of software and web development. Understanding the full software development lifecycle is essential, as effective software testing must be integrated from the initial requirements phase of any software engineering initiative. The course delves into various types of software testing, including functional, non-functional, and exploratory testing, all crucial for high-quality software and web development. Specialized topics, such as performance and security testing, are covered to provide a holistic view of quality assurance in software engineering. The proper planning and execution of software testing are paramount to minimizing risks in software and web development.

The curriculum extensively covers both manual and automated approaches to software testing. We explore how automation frameworks are used to accelerate the verification process in large-scale software engineering environments. A key focus is placed on creating test documentation, including test plans and detailed reports, which are vital communication tools in software and web development teams. Effective software testing relies on a solid grasp of defect management processes—from logging and tracking to verification and closure—which is a core competency for any professional in software engineering. Continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines, common in modern software and web development, require a disciplined approach to automated software testing. This program ensures that participants understand how software testing fits into agile and DevOps methodologies prevalent in contemporary software engineering. Mastery of the tools and techniques of software testing is the benchmark for success in any role related to software and web development. By emphasizing structured software testing processes, this training contributes directly to the overall quality and efficiency of software engineering projects, ultimately leading to superior outcomes in software and web development.

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.
