Schedule

Implementation of study unit will last 8 weeks.

Implementation methods, demonstration and Work&Study

The implementations are blended and rely mostly on contact sessions. Demonstration of prior learning and work & study are possible provided that the participant has either existing work experience on multiple software testing projects including the use of testing tools (Demonstration of prior learning) or is working in the field of software testing. In the case of possible Demonstration of prior learning or work & study, the teacher of the implementation should be contacted in the beginning of the implementation at the latest.

Intro

In Software Testing, you will learn to evaluate the quality of a software product and find errors/failures in it by using different software testing techniques.

You should enroll if you aim to work, for example, as Software Tester, Software Developer, Scrum Master or Product Owner.

Materials

The information on learning materials will be on the Moodle of the implementation.

Teaching methods and instruction

The implementation include daytime lectures at campus.

Working life connections

Software testing is an essential part of software development. Software testing is carried out by, for example, a software tester, software developer, scrum master or product owner. Knowledge of software testing and related practices and tools is in demand in working life.

The implementation will discuss good practices and tools used in working life. In addition, the implementation may have visitors from working life, and the importance of software testing and the role of the tester in working life will also be discussed with practical examples.

Exam dates and re-exam possibilities

The exam (paper&pen) will be done at classroom at the end of the study unit. Possible re-exams will be in digital format using EXAM-system.

Completion alternatives

The implementations are blended and rely mostly on contact sessions.
