Fundamentals of Risk-Based and White-Box Test Techniques

Course Overview

This course provides a comprehensive understanding of Risk-Based Testing and White-Box Test Techniques, both of which are essential components in the technical testing landscape. It begins with a detailed exploration of Risk-Based Testing, emphasizing the role of the Technical Test Analyst in identifying, analyzing, and mitigating risks throughout the testing process. The course then delves into the fundamentals and advanced concepts of White-Box Test Techniques, covering critical topics such as Statement Testing, Decision Testing, and MC/DC Testing. Learners will gain hands-on knowledge through video lectures and practical examples, equipping them with the skills necessary to implement effective risk-based strategies and white-box testing methods in real-world scenarios. Learning Objectives: 1. Explain the Technical Test Analyst’s role in Risk-Based Testing, including risk identification and mitigation. 2. Understand the application of fundamental and advanced white-box testing techniques. 3. Compare and evaluate white-box test techniques to choose the most suitable method for different scenarios. 4. Implement effective API testing practices using appropriate tools and techniques. Target Audience This course is intended for advanced participants who have already gained several years of practical experience in software testing and have completed the basic ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level (CTFL) course. It is ideal for professionals looking to reinforce their existing knowledge with more robust theoretical concepts and gain deeper insights into advanced testing practices. This course is particularly suited for those seeking to elevate their expertise in risk-based and white-box testing techniques, enabling them to handle complex testing scenarios with greater proficiency. Prerequisites 1. Foundation Level Certification: Learners should ideally hold the ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level (CTFL) certification, as this course builds on the foundational concepts covered at that level. 2. Basic Understanding of Software Testing: A fundamental understanding of software testing principles, methodologies, and processes, including test design techniques and the testing life cycle, is required.
