Edge Apprentice – Practical Training
For those who want to take their testing capability to the next level and to support the implementation of initiatives to optimise testing, our consultants provide sessions in such areas as Risk-Based Testing, Test Tools and other advanced techniques..
Your specific training requirements can be met through a number of options:
- Providing specific modules from the apprentice programme supported by baseline templates and collateral if required
- Access to programmes delivered by our partners and alliances
- Tools (test management, automation and performance) training.
Requirements Testing
Prevention is better than cure. Minimising the cost to fix defects and hence influencing the overall cost of delivery is best achieved by finding potential problems as early as possible in the project cycle. Static testing techniques can dramatically reduce the overall cost to a project, with this solution focusing on the key area of Requirements.
Requirements Testing, a simple yet effective technique, can realise savings of up to 30% in rework. This programme highlights the key components of the techniques and considers how to effectively align the implementation of these with the way in which requirements are established.
Risk-Based Testing
Risk-Based Testing is a commonly used term and one which most testers will be familiar with. However, this programme seeks to clarify those thoughts by considering the context of the business. For example, are your projects driven to ‘deliver business benefit’ or ‘mitigate risk’? It may be that you are being challenged with ‘testing too much’ and ‘not knowing when to stop testing’.
Risk-Based Testing can help in these areas and this programme explores the different options as well as covering the importance of achieving the balance between a basic through to a full risk-based approach.
Test Automation & Performance
We can provide customised training and mentoring in all the HP products to meet your needs, whether it be on a specific project or as part of a skills transfer programme allowing you to build and retain knowledge and expertise.
Other Advanced Techniques
Our portfolio of practical training is based upon 'real world' experience and not just on the theory. We have a range of courses and challenge sessions which are designed to stimulate thought to allow customers to decide what techniques may be most beneficial to them. In addition to those already mentioned these cover areas such as Exploratory Testing, Agile Testing and Business Assurance.
