What to expect from ISTQB Advanced Level Test Automation Test Engineer

In: Systems Analysis and Design

The International Software Testing Qualifications Board (ISTQB) Advanced Level Test Automation Test Engineer course provides you with the knowledge and skills necessary to guide a test automation project. The course focuses on the concepts, methods, tools and processes for automating dynamic functional tests and the relationship of those tests to test management, configuration management, defect management, software development processes and quality assurance. Methods described are generally applicable across a variety of software lifecycle approaches (e.g. agile, sequential, incremental and iterative), types of software systems (e.g. embedded, distributed and mobile) and test types (functional and non-functional testing).

Goal

Once you have completed the ISTQB Advanced Level Test Automation Test Engineer course successfully, you should be able to:

  • Contribute to the development of a plan to integrate automated testing within the testing process.
  • Evaluate tools and technology for automation best fit to each project and organization.
  • Create an approach and methodology for building a test automation architecture (TAA).
  • Design and develop (new or modified) test automation solutions that meet the business needs.
  • Enable the transition of testing from a manual to an automated approach.
  • Create automated test reporting and metrics collection.
  • Manage and optimise testing assets to facilitate maintainability and address evolving (test) systems.

Prerequisites

Target audience

To take the ISTQB Certified Tester Advanced Level: Test Automation Engineer certificate you must hold the ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level certificate (CTFL) or the BCS / ISTQB Foundation Certificate in Software Testing.
