ISEB Software Testing Foundation

Course features

This course has two complementary objectives: to give participants a good basic understanding of the principles of software testing; and to prepare participants for the ISEB Foundation Certificate in Software Testing. To further these aims, the course features a significant number of exercises and tests and also includes a mock examination.
