ISTQB Agile Tester Certification Training Course

Any self-respecting tester that calls themselves a professional should have Agile testing experience. If they don’t have experience, then there is something that they can do about it. They can now get certified by the ISTQB in the ISTQB Agile Tester Extension certification. This relatively new software testing certification aims to provide a tester with the knowledge they need to test software with an Agile environment.

The ISTQB Agile Tester certification is not actually a stand-alone certification, which means that not anyone can simply take the test, as there is a prerequisite. All testers wishing to take the exam must already hold the ISTQB Foundation certificate in Software Testing (CTFL). As this is the most popular software testing certification in the world, chances are; most testers will already have it.

This new certification from the ISTQB is already hugely popular among software testers in the QA world. This is in part due to the lack of ‘real’ certifications in the QA world. So, many testers are keen to find a way to obtain the knowledge required to enable them to pass the exam and get this new sought-after certification.

Some testers may be fortunate enough to get their employers to pay for them to attend a classroom-led ISTQB Agile training course. But, most testers do not have this privilege available to them. In addition, those testers who are currently looking for a way into the field of software testing may not have the personal budget to enable them to spend thousands on such training. Fortunately, there is another training option open to them and all testers who need to get certified, and this option is ‘distance-learning’.

There are some myths about distance learning, which are for the most part untrue. Such as there is no support for students, or there are no practice exams etc. Taking a look at the leading distance learning provide ‘Testing4Success.com’, their ISTQB Agile Tester Extension Training Course provides full Tutor Support, and 120 Practice Questions.

So what are the benefits of choosing a distance learning or online training course? flexibility is a huge advantage for any software tester who wishes to study for this certification. A distance learning course means you can study at any time of day you wish. In addition, you can effectively study from anywhere you wish too. For example, you could study while traveling or in a lunch break etc.

Cost is always a factor in any training. A good distance learning course will provide you with everything you need to pass the exam for just a few hundred dollars, which is a huge saving on the thousand dollars plus you would be looking at for a classroom-led course

If you are a tester look to obtain the ISTQB Agile Tester certification. Then perhaps you should consider the distance-learning or online method of training.

New Changes for ISTQB Certification in 2016

In recent years, updates to the core range of ISTQB certifications, such as ISTQB Foundation, ISTQB Advanced and ISTQB Agile Tester have been few and far between. In fact, for the ISTQB Foundation syllabus, it has been four years. So what changes are we to expect next year?

There are rumors in the QA community that the ISTQB is working on updates to its ISTQB Foundation syllabus and ISTQB Advanced syllabus, which we are t o expect in the new examination next year (2016). Whether or not these rumors turn out to be true remains to be seen. There certainly is no word on the official ISTQB website. So what changes are we likely to see in any future ISTQB syllabus?

There is a lot of ‘buzz’ at the moment for a world-wide official certification for Mobile App Testing (Mobile QA). While this would be relatively welcomed by the QA community, do we actually need it. What the ISTQB promotes is the key fact that good software testing principles can be applied to any software product or platform. Fortunately for Software Testers is that the key fundamentals of software testing do not change very often, nor will they. Will a tester who has completed a mobile app training course find more defects in a mobile app than a tester who holds an ISTQB certification? The answer will probably be know. Obviously there are several other contributory factors to consider, but essentially a good tester should be able to plan and execute a good test strategy to uncover defects regardless of the software platform.

There are many calls for and expectations that the ISTQB will(and must) add mobile testing information to its future ISTQB range of QA certifications. I very much doubt this will actually be the case. Just take a look through the current ISTQB syllabi, and see for yourself how much of it is still relavant and can be applied to a mobile app.

Mobile app development (and subsequent QA) is a huge proportion of the worlds current software market, and its here to stay. As Testers, do we need to update our skill-sets? or simply change our attitude?

Agile Testing e-Learning Course

Many testers are now finding themselves testing within an Agile environment. Some testers are finding that they are required to test without actually having any real knowledge or experience of what Agile testing essentially means. This can be concerning for the tester and the whole development team. Testers need to know about Agile, because if they haven’t worked with Agile before, it surely won’t be long before they do.

There are several ways a tester can can study the concepts of Agile testing. Firstly, they can attend a classroom-led training course. The major drawback with this type of training is the cost and time constraints. Secondly, there are many books out there that cover Agile testing. However, it can be very hard work learning from just reading text, and many testers fail attempting to learn Agile testing with this method.

Lastly, and by no means least we have e-learning. Thanks to Testing4Success, there is now a way to learn that provides the flexibility of self-study with the advantages of having tutor support (just like learning in a classroom). The newest addition to their range of software testing training courses is the ISTQB Agile Tester Training Course.
