Agile project management for software development projects continues to be a strongly growing area. From the perspective of the test, an agile approach promotes many positive activities, as for example obligatory acceptance criteria or test-driven development (TDD). With this basic seminar, you are prepared for the test tasks in agile software development projects.

This course is intended for testers, test managers, and test analysts who know the basics of ISTQB® Certified Tester Foundation Level and who are now working on agile projects. You will learn how your role is changing by using the agile approach in your project and which tasks will cease or accrue. Furthermore, the course is suitable for employees in agile projects (e.g. product managers or developers) who are interested in an overview from the test point of view for more effective and efficient testing in their projects.
