Essential Testing Techniques in Software Development
Learn static software testing techniques, review processes, and QA practices to improve software reliability and development efficiency.
Learn static software testing techniques, review processes, and QA practices to improve software reliability and development efficiency.
This comprehensive course explores advanced testing techniques integrated throughout the software development lifecycle. Students will gain in-depth knowledge of various testing methodologies, including how testing activities align with different SDLC models such as sequential, V-model, and incremental approaches. The curriculum covers essential test levels from component to acceptance testing, along with functional and non-functional testing types. Participants will master test design techniques including black-box methods like equivalence partitioning and boundary value analysis, white-box techniques focusing on code coverage, and experience-based approaches such as error guessing and exploratory testing. The course also addresses maintenance testing strategies and collaboration-based test approaches, equipping testers with practical skills for real-world software quality assurance.

There are 3 modules in this course
This course provides a comprehensive exploration of testing techniques throughout the software development lifecycle. The curriculum is structured around three main areas: integration of testing within various SDLC models, test analysis and design techniques, and experience/collaboration-based testing approaches. Students first learn how testing fits into different development methodologies including sequential, incremental, and DevOps approaches, along with the various test levels and types. The second section covers systematic test design techniques, focusing on both black-box methods (equivalence partitioning, boundary value analysis, decision tables, state transition) and white-box approaches (statement and branch coverage). The final module explores experience-based techniques like error guessing and exploratory testing, as well as collaboration-based approaches such as acceptance test-driven development. Throughout the course, practical examples and real-world applications reinforce theoretical concepts.
