iSQI® CAT Certified Agile Tester
Lekcje
Agile is flexible and adaptive with frequent feedback loops, far different from the traditional regimented methodologies. Agile testing is different, so we made the iSQI® CAT Certified Agile Tester different. It centers on the most important element in agile projects: YOU!
During the four day training, you acquire all the skills required to test agile successfully. While theory about the Agile Manifesto, frameworks, processes and methods are essential to understand agility, the iSQI® CAT Certified Agile Tester certification takes you one step further. The key to success in agile projects relies heavily on the individual's ability to collaborate and self-manage. When strict guidelines and hierarchies are exchanged for a dynamic, communication-rich environment, a common language is vital.
This is why the iSQI® CAT Certified Agile Tester certification provides you with all skills and competencies required to run agile projects efficiently. Focusing heavily on practical exercises and a hands-on approach the iSQI® CAT Certified Agile Tester will provide you with the requisite know-how to succeed in any agile project.
