It is also ideal for anyone who has already attained a qualification in software testing, including the ISTQB® Certified Tester Foundation Level certification, and who now wants to validate they can practically apply their knowledge.

What you will learn

When starting the A4Q Practical Tester, the A4Q team surveyed hundreds of test managers and many training providers on what they expect from a tester certification. The feedback was clear: they all prefer a practical approach for training and exams. The focus should go from knowledge-based to skills- and competence-based training. As a result, the A4Q Practical Tester is structured around practical objectives that span various software testing techniques. They complement the ISTQB® Certified Tester Foundation Level core body of knowledge. You will learn how to:

• Testing Techniques
    

Apply black box testing techniques (Boundary Value Analysis, Equivalence Partitioning, State Transition, and Decision Tables) to create and execute effective test cases efficiently.

• Estimation Techniques
    

Use estimation techniques accurately to enhance the overall efficacy and productivity of the testing process

• Identify & Address Issues
    

Identify and address issues early in the development lifecycle with strategies such as Test Case Prioritization and Acceptance Test-Driven Development.

• Create Effective Test Plans
    

Create an effective test plan that provides a framework and structure that covers the critical components needed by all stakeholders to ensure successful testing.

A4Q Practical Tester: Exam Details

The A4Q Practical Tester is closely aligned with the ISTQB® certification scheme and uses the same glossary terms and wording. To gain the most benefit from the A4Q Practical Tester, the ISTQB® Certified Tester Foundation Level (CTFL) certification is highly recommended. However, holding the ISTQB® CTFL is not a prerequisite for passing the A4Q Practical Tester exam.

Exam Structure

The A4Q Practical Tester certification exam is based on the A4Q Practical Tester syllabus. Candidates are assessed against the “Practical Objectives” and must demonstrate their ability to effectively and accurately apply techniques and approaches. The assessment format is open text (the exam does not include multiple choice questions); Assessors will look for comprehensive and complete responses that align with the syllabus.

Exam Preparation

The A4Q Practical Tester app is a powerful learning tool supporting exam preparation. Candidates can also participate in an instructor-led A4Q Practical Tester training course, where they are guided through the syllabus using the learning tool to reinforce their skills development.

The A4Q Practical Tester provides a roadmap for learners to develop a comprehensive toolkit of testing skills applicable to real-world situations. The A4Q Practical Tester complements the ISTQB® Certified Tester Foundation Level 4.0 (CTFL 4.0).
