This Advanced Technical Test Analyst course presents a comprehensive overview of methods and techniques for deriving and specifying software tests based on the system’s requirements and design (“black box tests”) as well as its implementation and structure (“white-box tests”).
On completing the course, attendees will be able to select and apply techniques for test case derivation such as state-based testing and control flow testing as well as static and dynamic analysis. We will look at non-functional testing techniques such as reliability testing, portability testing, performance, load, and stress testing. We will also discuss how to succeed in building robust automation architectures and using a variety of tools to reach a quality target.
This course was designed by Rex Black, past President of the International Software Testing Qualifications Board (ISTQB), and co-author of the International Software Testing Qualifications Board Advanced Syllabus.

THE OBJECTIVES OF THE COURSE ARE AS FOLLOWS:
- Explain where non-functional tests and architecture-based tests fit into an application’s lifecycle
- Explain what criteria may influence the structure and level of test condition development
- Describe how we can use test analysis and design activities to discover defects prior to test execution
- Explain the concept of test oracles and how a test oracle is used, with realistic examples of test specifications
- Describe and define the entry conditions for test execution, including testware, test environment, configuration management, and defect management
- Outline a risk-based approach for planning and executing technical testing
- Write test cases using the following black box test design techniques
- Equivalence partitioning
- Boundary value analysis
- Decision tables
- State transition testing
- Write test cases using the following white box test design techniques:
- Statement testing
- Decision testing
- Condition determination testing
- Multiple condition testing
- List examples of typical defects to be identified by each specific technique
- Analyze a system or its requirement specification, determine which black box and white box techniques to apply for specific objectives, and outline a test specification based on IEEE 829
- Based on ISO 9126, characterize testing approaches, specify test cases, and distinguish between the types of defects that can be found by security, reliability, and efficiency tests.
- Understand why test strategies should include maintainability, portability, and accessibility tests, and specify test cases to cover these attributes.
- Create a checklist that can find typical defects during code and architecture review
- Compare review types with each other and show their relative strengths, weaknesses, and fields of use
- Analyze, classify and describe functional and non-functional defects in understandable defect reports
