It is a known fact that tests should be executed correctly and thoroughly under any circumstances. Therefore testers are required to achieve accurate results regardless of the specific context. The tester should be able to use the context he/she is working with and transform it into an effective test approach, efficient test techniques and appropriate testing documentation. Context factors of high importance include development methodology (agile, waterfall, but also ad-hoc), available time and risks associated with the product.
During the one-day workshop Context Driven Testing you learn these insights and skills in two phases. In the first part the participants get to know and experience limitations and weaknesses of process-oriented testing, as well as learn to recognize the different aspects of the given context they have to work with.
In the second part they are taught new skills and means to ensure they can handle every context. Participants learn exploratory testing and session-based test management, mind mapping and the benefits and use of heuristics.
The workshop Context Driven Testing is designed for testers, test coordinators and test managers but also for other IT professionals who come across testing in everyday work. Knowledge of testing is a plus but not required.
