Synopsis

As dependency on software systems increases, so equally does the need for trained and qualified testers. In a world of employment mobility, having an internationally recognized qualification ensures that there is a common understanding of the testing issues at hand. Software testers preparing for the International Software Testing Qualification Board (ISTQB) examination - the first and only international certification scheme available - will find full support for their study in this book. Designed to help software and system testing professionals pass and qualify at Foundation Level, syllabus coverage is complete and enhanced with learning aids. As the authors are seasoned test-professionals and developers of the ISTQB syllabus itself, this book is written 'from the source' and with 100% relevancy. The authors adopt a practical and hands-on approach, covering the fundamental principles that every software tester should know. This is the ideal one-stop study guide for anyone taking the ISTQB Foundation Level examination.
