 QAI CSTE WEBinar
The Quality Assurance Institute is now offering an online Live WEBinar. This 12-week Web-based Certified Software Tester Exam Study Course has been designed specifically to help the testing professional study and prepare for the CSTE examination.

Course Overview:

The CSTE Common Body of Knowledge (CBOK) skill categories have been selected to address the challenges faced by today’s software testers. The Web-based CSTE Exam Study Course is a live, facilitated discussion and presentation of the ten CBOK skill categories. The course reinforces current knowledge, re-introduces concepts that may not be used everyday, explains the rationale for use, and highlights both multiple choice and essay type sample examination questions and responses.

It is recognized that many software testers do not need to be competent in all of the CBOK categories to fulfill their current job responsibilities. However, the CSTE candidate should have a working knowledge of the information in all skill categories and will be examined on all ten CBOK categories. This course provides a background of the IT testing fundamentals and also includes the more advanced concepts, which the Certified Software Tester must understand.

The completion of this course along with the necessary practical experience and related resource familiarity will help prepare the candidate for the CSTE examination. Due to time limitations, this course is not intended to cover every component of the CBOK in great depth.*

* Taking this course does not constitute, nor imply, the successful passing of the CSTE examination.
